Fuck you Walkers crisps

[Liesmorelies]

Just opened a bag of what I thought was ready salted crisps. It's a red bag, obviously. A foul sweet taste ensued causing me to check the bag. Fucking tomato ketchup flavour. Firstly, who asked for tomato ketchup flavour crisps? Secondly, who wants to be reading the bags when buying a bag of crisps? We all have enough on our plates without needing to do that. Bags' colours denote the flavour and if they want to bring in stupid novelty flavours for weirdos to eat and run out of colours (changing the shade slightly is not sufficient) then these atrocities should be relegated to the bottom shelves where no one will pick them up in error. Heads should roll for this. I'm left having to decide between no crisps or getting dressed, which was not on my agenda for today, and going out in the rain.

That's very disappointing. 💐 YANBU.

Ooft, ketchup flavoured crisps? Evil. I feel your pain op. Thoughts and prayers.

ketchup flavoured are top tier crisps

That must have spoilt your morning 😪
I like crisps,i would be very disappointed with a tomato ketchup flavour 😕

Ketchup crisps sound amazing. I used to love the Worcester sauce ones but haven't seen them in ages.

Ketchup flavoured crisps are great, YABveryU 😂.

Tbf though, ready salted are absolutely top tier crisps and I can see how that would be alarming for you

Love ketchup crisps and was very disappointed when Tesco whoosh sent me shitty old ready salted as a replacement last week!

Alarming is exactly the right word. I hated Worcester sauce crisps but it is a proper muscular flavour that I'm sure many love and it has/had (?) a distinctive purple bag, so no errors possible. These are just a sweet sort of nothingness and those who say otherwise are just plain wrong. No one needs this flavour.

I LOVE Walkers tomato ketchup crisps. YABVU. Did the big ketchup bottle and logo in the front not give its contents away??

How do you deal with the aldi crinkle crisps that all have the same picture of crisps on the front ? The currywurst and kentucky bbq flavour ones ?

If a crisp is worthwhile eating it's worthwhile taking the time to select the correct flavour, and reading is part of that.

Spotted a red blur in the crisp rack from 10 metres away and grabbed at it like a zombie probably.

Oooh yum! Love love the sweet tanginess of the tomato ketchup flavour 😋

Tomato ketchup crisps are not new and have always been in a red bag. They were around when I was at primary school so at least 40 years.

But Walkers can fuck off. I have never forgiven them for changing the colour of various bags of crisps. Ready Salted should be Dark Blue. Salt and Vinegar Light Blue. Cheese and Onion Green.

Every crisp manufacturer used the same colour bags for different flavours until sometime in the 90's (I think) when Walkers decided to be different and I have been picking up the wrong flavours in shops ever since.

Of course that's how I bought them. I haven't got time to be reading crisp bags have I? I have never seen the wretched things before - I can't believe they've been around for 40 years. I'm going to see if I can stomach them with a tuna melt in a bit.

I love ketchup flavour crisps. YABU!

This happened to me while awaiting a train. I picked up what I thought were plain and didnt realise until I boarded the train. I was quite peckish and actually enjoyed them very much 😁

Yes imagine my horror when I picked up and bought a six pack of what I thought was cheese and onion and it turned out to be a six pack of salt and vinegar🤮

Thoughts and prayers

That must've been awful. Tomato ketchup crisps sound absolutely vile, and if your expecting something really plain it makes it such a shock!

I haven't had crisps for ages now. I used to eat them every day but I swear they're not as nice as they used to be. Like all crisps have got shite!

Well it will teach you to approach your crisp selection which clearly is something of great importance with a bit more respect.

Think of it like selecting a fine wine mulling carefully over the labels before selecting an appropriate vintage.

Crisps are too important to risk the horror of the flavour lottery.

Or the TLDR, that'll learn 'em.

I think you need to send a strongly worded Email to the CEO of walkers, outlining the trauma you have had and asking them for reassurance this won't happen again to some poor unsuspecting customer.

Love tomato ketchup crisps

The only ones I can't eat are Salt and Vinegar. They burn my mouth.

I love all the other flavours though.

Ketchup crisps were available when I was a teenager, which was indeed a long time ago.

YABU for eating crisps so early in the day. Strictly an afternoon snack only

This is why MNHQ gave us the new support emoji - just in time!
