After Walkers came up with the new Bangers and Mash flavoured crisps did anybody at Walkers actually taste them or smell them?
The most fowl smelling and awful tasting crisps I’ve ever had the misfortune to consume!

Smokey bacon PACKET NOW change

Smokey Bacon packet’s gone brown now… so apparently bacon is beef these days 🤣🤠🤷

Absolute tragedy what they’ve done to these. The flavour’s so faint it tastes like the seasoning and crisps were manufactured in completely different countries and only introduced over Teams. Same snap, sure — but the actual taste has vanished into thin air along with the bright packet colours.

Feels like another classic British crisp bought out, focus-grouped to death, then engineered down to the cheapest possible version while some executive celebrates “streamlined flavour efficiency” in a grey office somewhere.

Honestly tastes like someone whispered “smokey bacon” at a plain ready salted crisp from across the room.

Meanwhile M&S have quietly turned up with better flavour, same crunch, and barely any difference in price. Walkers charging nostalgia tax at this point.

Tried to get my FIFA World Cup voucher that I won from multipack of 6 crisps but you only had 30 minutes to redeem it if you had revealed it at Tesco. So I tried to print it so I could use it somewhere else and it wouldn't print & said that I had already used it, what a con job.

Revolting - don't bother

Gave one star as unfortunately I can't give less. Been eating Walkers since the 80s. Today's iteration bears no resemblance to lovely crisps they once were. Thick dry and tasteless. What they've done to smoky bacon is criminal. I won't be buying anymore.

OMG NEVER BEFORE EVER AFTER

OMG
Its one and only worse company for real true staff
You can look at the staff turnover
All their HR and Payroll department is in unqualified person hands
For a part time unqualified Payroll assistant earnings £39,900
Walkers did't hike any staff and management salary apart from Payroll genious
Like me lot of rwliable and hard working staff terminated in the name of Redundancy
I dont know why Mr. SHABIR MAJID intrested in just a payroll assistant
Tje company senior leadership team and other stake holders must think about the STAFFING issues

I recently purchased a 6-pack of cheese and onion crisps from Walker’s, and the experience was extremely disappointing. One of the packets contained barely 4–5 crisps, which is already unacceptable. What made it worse, however, was finding a strange object inside that looked like a chicken nugget.

It was genuinely unpleasant and quite off-putting. As a regular customer, I expect a certain level of quality and hygiene, and this fell far below that standard. I hope this issue is taken seriously and investigated, as it raises concerns about quality control and food safety.I have video but not sure where to post..

That’s Nuts

Just had a packet of walkers smoky bacon (that’s nuts)…
Product was lovely quality was brilliant and the price 😂 was 50p from the reduced bin.

Thanks walkers for some brilliant peanuts and can’t wait for different flavours when I see them.

What has happened to WALKER'S plain…

What has pappened to WALKER'S plain salted crisps? They used to be the finest crisps available. Apart form the fact that a pack is mostly filled with air, plain salted now have have an unbelievably fishy like flavour.

Bad, bad, bad!

Walker Frazzle crisps - when researched they are high in high risk additives - carcinogenic and some banned additives elsewhere in Europe. Why are companies allowed to put these on the shelf when they are so harmful to the human body! It blows my mind that this sort of food is allowed on our shelves!! Absolutely disgusting! With the rise of cancer why is this not being stopped!

Used to be delicious and high value for good prices and now if i buy a packet, i am paying £1.35 for a bag of air with a few crisps in it, not worth the price, its expensive and lacking the content to match the price.
I used to swear by walkers but now i highly reccomend ONE STOP crisps or nik naks as the bags are fairly full and your not just paying for air
