My favourite in the UK, cheese and onion taste a lot like these cheesy garlic bread. And as an aside, the cheesy garlic bread won the contest Lays were running for new flavours.

What a fun post! Thanks for sharing all of these pictures! I haven't tried the Sriracha chips yet -- I had forgotten about them, I wonder if they're still out there....
ReplyDeleteHere is my SATURDAY SNAPSHOT post.
Some of those flavors sound awful!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea Walkers went under other names in other countries - you learn something new every day! My Snapshot is at http://goo.gl/hfGhV
ReplyDeleteOh my, cultural tastes DO vary, huh?
ReplyDeleteI always find multinational brands like this a bit dispiriting, although it is interesting as a compare and contrast exercise. Chips aren't really my thing, having said that I think I would try the beef and yorkshire puddings. Although I am hoping to have the real thing in London in a few weeks- I've never had a yorkshire pudding....
ReplyDeleteThe Cheesy Garlic Bread flavour taste very much like the Walker's Cheese and Onion from the UK. Very tasty.
ReplyDeleteI think it is best that I never try the Cheesy Garlic Bread chips--that is just too much deliciousness packed into one for me to control myself!
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking part in Saturday Snapshot!
Oh wow...I am a traditional crunchy kettle cooked chip lover:)
