Comments

Some time ago supermarkets came to the realisation that creating their own versions of well-loved food products could be a real money spinner. By creating similar (but often slightly less enticing) products, but charging a good deal less than the big name brands, supermarkets gave consumers the choice of prioritising brand or economic value. This is apparent across many different food product ranges, including crisps. Walkers Crisps is known for its different tastes since it has a huge amount of flavors including r eady-salted salt, vinegar, cheese, and onion.

Exclusively available in Tesco from 27 June 2022, the newest additions to the MAX Strong range will later be rolled out nationally to a wider range of groceries and convenience stores from 1 August. Another flavour from the Taste the Difference range that is going head-to-head with Tyrells and Kettle Chips, and another that competes very well, all things considered. So it stands to reason that these Marmite-flavoured crisps from Walkers are also vegan (cross-contamination risk aside), and also very tasty (if you are a lover, of course!). These are so good we thought they deserved their own entry in the table. Some people love ready salted crisps, in all their banal blandness. The Tesco own-brand version does what’s expected of them and are good value.

Nutrition Facts

Walkers Mix Ups are not suitable for vegans as some of the crisps contain milk. There’s milk in the French Fries, Cheesy Wotsits, Monster Munch and Tangy Cheese Doritos. While the Chilli Heatwave Doritos and the Flamin’ Hot Wotsits don’t have milk, they will have milk powder on them from sharing a bag with the other crisps. Are Monster Munch vegan? Max Fiery Peri-Peri– Contains lactose and whey powder from milk, annoyingly as these look darn tasty! Whoever designed this flavour clearly understood how to maximise the chances of someone devouring a whole tube in one sitting. Dangerously tasty.
