This classic flavour consistently tops polls of the nation’s favourites. Crisp lovers swear by its perfect balance of tang and deep savoury notes – a combination that seems impossible to beat. Almost every brand offers a version, from simple cheese and onion to more inventive takes, but it’s Walkers that continues to hold the crown. And for the record, its packets have always been blue – not green, as urban legend would have it.
