Walkers MAX STRONG Fiery Prawn Cocktail 50g (Case of 24)

Product Information

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. 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. They have a handful of vegan-friendly own-brand crisps, as detailed below. We had hoped for a little more imagination from Waitrose, but they sell so many branded vegan-friendly crisps that their customers will not be left wanting. Crisp Name/Flavour Spicy Sriracha– A new flavour in the classic range, we unfortunately have no idea what they taste like as they contain sour cream powder from milk

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. Akin to McCoy’s in flavour and texture, these sturdy crisps are perfect for vegans seeking the kind of flavour that is rarely available to people on a plant-based diet. BBQ Pulled Pork– Alas, these do contain pigs in the form of ‘pork powder’; interestingly, this is the only Walkers ‘core’ flavour that is unsuitable for vegetariansThe name says it all. Nothing overly interesting to say about a fairly plain crisp other than they are decent value. Potatoes, Sunflower Oil (25%), Rapeseed Oil, Salt & Vinegar Seasoning. Salt & Vinegar Seasoning (Flavouring, Dried Vinegar, Salt, Acid (Citric Acid), Sugar, Potassium Chloride, Yeast Extract). Walkers Oven Baked Salt & Vinegar Crisps Ingredients: Now branded as Walkers, though previously a mainstay of Smith’s, the rather novel Salt & Shake concept was particularly popular in the days before parents realised that encouraging kids to put extra salt on their crisps maybe wasn’t a great idea. Still enjoying a small niche market, there is little between these and the Tesco version (other than the price).

If you’re vegan and miss eating Monster Munch, then many supermarkets’ own-brand ‘Monster Claws’ are suitable for vegans. Monster Munch Flavour Walkers fans have plenty to go on based on the above table of vegan-friendly Walkers crisps (assuming the vegans in question are fine with milk products being handled in the same factory). To be on the safe side, and for those who are interested, here are the main Walkers crisps that are not vegan based on the inclusion of animal-derived ingredients. The Deli flavours that are vegan friendly are: Mediterranean Balsamic Vinegar, Roasted Garlic & Mediterranean Herbs (Pita Chips), and Anglesey Sea Salt. Minimum life based on 'use-by' date of product. Average life based on last week's deliveries. Life guarantee shown based on delivery tomorrow with the Life guarantee starting the following day. The new flavours will be an addition to the brand’s first non-HFSS range that launched in March 2022. Classic flavours including Lightly Salted and Mild Cheese and Onion were re-launched with 45% less salt under Walkers’ aim to encourage consumers towards healthier choices.Some also contain bacon, but this is flavourings only. You can read more on the stance on bacon products here: Bacon flavourings. Note that most of the supermarkets mentioned below also sell a good number of the crisp brands mentioned above (though the discount supermarkets such as Aldi and Lidl often have alternatives to the better known brands we’ve featured). Tesco Vegan Crisps Weirdly vegan! Flavoursome and light, these popped chips compare well to others in the genre, especially on price. With a worryingly addictive taste-crunch combo, the Original Pringles are a solid addition to any party or vegan barbecue.

Wotsits– It should come as no massive surprise that the famously cheesy Wotsits contain ingredients derived from milk and so are not vegan Potato Flakes, Starch, Rapeseed Oil, Salt & Malt Vinegar Seasoning (Flavourings (contains Barley Malt Vinegar Extract), Acid (Citric Acid), Sea Salt, Lactose (from Milk), Potassium Chloride, Salt, Colour (Paprika Extract)), Sugar, Emulsifier (Sunflower Lecithin), Sunflower Oil, Colour ( Annatto). Walkers MAX Salt & Vinegar Crisps Ingredients: The Chilli Heatwave chip ramps up the spice a little but they are by no means tongue-sizzlingly hot, especially if coupled with a mild salsa.Those seeking a higher end alternative to standard salt and vinegar crisps will be pleased with these, especially as they are significantly cheaper than the likes of Kettle Chips.

Crinkles only come in two flavours at the time writing. The Simply Salted flavour is vegan, while the Cheese & Onion is not. 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?

Whoever designed this flavour clearly understood how to maximise the chances of someone devouring a whole tube in one sitting. Dangerously tasty. Oven Baked Sour Cream & Chive– Contains various milk products, including cream powder and buttermilk Unfortunately, the other flavors of walkers crisps are not vegan-friendly. since they contain meat Or milk such as Beef & Onion, Cheese & Onion, Smoky Bacon, Tomato Ketchup, BBQ Pulled Pork, and Spicy Sriracha.
