Walkers Hog Roast Crisps Review


A very quick review of this new flavour from Walkers - the Hog Roast with Sage & Onion Stuffing. They've been released as the winner of a public vote to choose a "homegrown flavour". This whole competition seems to have passed me by so if you have any other information please feel free to leave a comment below.


The flavour itself has a generic meatiness at first, which slightly reminded me of a smokey bacon type flavour, this is quickly followed by the type of herby taste that is often found in crisps around Christmastime. It's essentially a turkey & stuffing flavoured crisp but just without the poultry, and with more pork. It all works together nicely enough, especially if you are a fan of this type of stuffing flavouring.
