3 things: pombears are designed exclusively for children, so they are softer on the pallette, and generally have a much lighter flavour than a 'normal' flavoured packet of crisps would have so as not to be too overpowering for kids. prawn cocktail flavour has nothing to do with prawns or seafood as such, it's a reference to the 'cocktail sauce' used in a prawn cocktail which is predominantly ketchup/mayo/vinegar/lemon juice and other ingredients based on personal preference/region. while I don't mean this as an insult, it's very obvious that you have very little concept of what certain 'proper' ingredients taste like, as do most Americans sadly due to the nature of your food industry, some of the things you criticised the pizza hut collab flavour for, you wouldn't be complaining about if you knew what proper pepperoni tasted like, unless you make it yourself properly and know all the ingredients then you won't get a proper flavour profile, and unfortunately what Americans call pepperoni is not actually pepperoni; another thing to keep in mind regarding this sort of thing is that the British pallette is softer so flavours in general are toned down compared with what you are used to, that's also partly due to the sheer amount of chemicals introduced into your foodstuffs that you have to have overpowering flavours for many food items because without those extreme flavours you would taste all the chemicals in your food, so when something from Britain says 'bursting with flavour' you need to keep in mind that its reference point is the natural flavour of the product and the thing you're eating has been enhanced with more flavour than the baseline, but not to the point where the flavour is overpowering. while certain flavours will be alien to you as they simply don't exist in the US, some things will be vastly different based on the list of banned substances your version of things has in it compared with things from outside of the US, in future it might be worth trying similar products side by side so you can see that difference first hand.

Thanks for the Clarification! We know Our flavor....or Flavour just fine here in the South! 👍....agreed on the pumped up chemicals over here though. We didn't mean anything or any part of the video to be disrespectful to any of the products...just to give an honest, taste test opinion from someone across the pond. I appreciate you watching the video and all the explanations, if you need any good recipes, watch more of my videos, I cook all the time. If you'd like to see me try to make some proper English cuisine shoot some suggestions our way and we'll try to make it happen. Again, thanks for watching, Much Love! 👍💯✌️

Walkers Max crisps are specifically designed for eating as bar snacks with beer. The flavour profile intensifies. You should also try and get your hands on the other Walkers Sensations Roast Chicken & Thyme... They are delicious.

You should look into getting some wireless microphones, it'd make the video quality way greater Prawn cocktail is meant to be the prawn cocktail sauce instead of the prawn taste, it's got a strong vinegary taste. Every time I see Americans try anything prawn cocktail flavoured crisps ( Walkers, Skips and Wotsits brands), 9/10 they don't like it haha. It think its just a British palate kinda thing. Walkers makes some very strange flavours but if it says it tastes like something... it definitely tastes like it! They had a chilli and chocolate flavour before! Thai Sweet Chilli Sensations are very popular in the UK, I think all Sensations variations are quite popular.

Walkers was brought by the Pepsi-cola company in the 1980's and re-branded it "Lays" except in the UK hence the similarities. There is no excuse for them to deny you the good sh!t we get from them. Sorry guys.

I like prawn cocktail. Call me weird but I think its like a slightly sweet salt and vinegar. As far as I know shrimps are smaller prawns. Edit: You kind of had some of the worst flavours of Walkers Max. There paprika which is really good and they do a Walkers Max Strong range. Jalapeño and cheese, there's also Spicy chicken thighs (forget exact wording) which are great as well. I agree the pepperoni is kind of mid.

How can you like ketchup, but not like ketchup flavoured things? That's just like saying I love apples but I don't like coconut, especially with a hint of bubble and squeak, seasoned with coriander and liquid cheese!!!!❤

No one likes ketchup. It is bland. Barbecue flavored chips are common because people actually like that. Hot sauce flavor is popular too.

@@GavinLambTV Sadly his "information" is incorrect. They are two separate companies. Lays being American, Walkers being English. Founded separately in different years (Walkers in 1948, Lays in 1961). However, they have both subsequently been acquired by PepsiCo, hence they now have similar branding.

@@gemmabarnes thing is, we Brits have the brains to know tortilla chips do not go with fish, and corn snacks are just that, etc, so we can afford to use multiple different words for the same thing without confusion :) I have chips, crisps, and snacks in my cupboard. To me, if it's sliced potato it's a crisp, if it's corn or lentil, it's a chip, and if it's puffed, or shaped, it's a snack (unless its walkers french friesl. But so many different words for the same thing would confuse Americans 🤣 (It's like the American think we call cookies, biscuits and French fries chips. Nope, we call cookies cookies, biscuits biscuits, chips chips, and French fries, french fries. We have all four)
