An obvious attempt at capturing a patriotic audience, Taylors include a clear statement, “Welsh Potato Crisps”, a Welsh flag and a dragon on their otherwise plain packaging. The flavours are colour coded but that is all
.
Crunch
As with many thickly cut varieties, these did not crack and splinter like many regular Crisps. A firm and boisterous bite was followed by a five munch period before the mulch stage began to set in
Texture
Very thickly cut Crisps that maintained much of their sliced potato shape; flat an circular. There was some seasoning visible on mostly flat surfaces, which were clearly untroubled by the bubbling oil they were cooked in

Taste
A Nose Plunge Test suggested a mild beefy stock cube aroma. I am aware that Crisps manufacturers feel an onus to introduce rambunctious flavour descriptions, but this often does their product a disservice. These did not taste like Flamegrilled Steak, but they did taste like good old honest mild and potato infused Beef Crisps. There really is nothing wrong with that
