About this deal

In 2014, Lineker launched a new "Do Us a Flavour" Walkers competition which encouraged people to submit new flavours of crisps, with the best six being sold later in the year before a public vote to decide the winner. However, two workers at a crisp factory were sacked after stealing cash prizes from bags on the production line. The new packaging features the Walkers logo in the middle of each packet rather than centre-top, alongside a new series of illustrations which are laid out in the shape of a Union Jack flag, and feature icons and landmarks such as London's Big Ben and red telephone boxes, and Liverpool's Liver Building. Not suitable for vegetarians: Walkers' new potato crisps range uses real ingredients - including meat". The Leicester-born former England international footballer Gary Lineker has been the face of the brand since 1995, featuring in most of its popular commercials and successful advertising campaigns.

After the takeover by PepsiCo, the Tudor name was dropped, and the Smiths brand has become secondary to Walkers. The public had to pick one of Walkers' ingredients as a base – Somerset Cheddar, Devonshire chicken, Norfolk pork, Dorset sour cream, Vale of Evesham tomatoes and Aberdeen Angus beef – then choose their own unique flavour. Other varieties include: Worcestershire Sauce, Roast Chicken, Prawn Cocktail, Smoky Bacon, Tomato Ketchup, and Pickled Onion. If you do require precise ingredients or nutritional information you should consult the manufacturer, whose contact details will appear on the packaging or label.In 2015, Walkers launched the "Bring me Back" campaign, reintroducing Barbecue, Cheese and Chive, Beef and Onion, Lamb and Mint and Toasted Cheese flavours for a limited time. Subsequently, according to The Guardian, the "UK tax authorities managed to claw back less than a third of what they might" have received had an unchanged structure continued producing the same sort of level of UK profits and tax as Walkers Snack Foods had in 1998. In July 2008, Walkers launched its "Do Us a Flavour" campaign, challenging the public to think up unique flavours for its crisps. Suitable for vegetarians and on the line since 1920 these are a perfect throwback bite for those with a long memory.

The three main varieties are: Cheese and Onion (introduced in 1954), Salt and Vinegar (introduced in 1967) and Ready Salted. Smiths, a subsidiary of PepsiCo which is also the owner of Leicester-based baked goods retailer Walkers, has apologised to fans of the "delicious" scampi-and-lemon-flavoured cereal snack which they say is "ideal with all types of drinks" and "made with the finest ingredients". It started frying its crisps in "SunSeed" oil, as claiming the oil is higher in monounsaturated fat content than the standard sunflower oil which it had used previously, [29] establishing its own sunflower farms in Ukraine and Spain to be able to produce sufficient quantities of the oil.

It was stated that Red Sky products were made from 100% natural ingredients, and that the makers "work in partnership with Cool Earth", a charity that protects endangered rainforest; Walkers made charitable donations proportionate to the number of purchases of Red Sky snacks. This comes from the time when Walkers, Smiths and Tudor Crisps were the three main brands of Nabisco's UK snack division, with Tudor being marketed mainly in the north of England and Smiths in the south. Earlier that season, Walkers had given Leicester fans in attendance at a match versus Chelsea bags of " Vardy salted" crisps, bearing the image of the Foxes' striker.

Walkers Snack Foods Limited, [1] trading as Walkers, is a British snack food manufacturer mainly operating in the UK and Ireland. After Archer Martin and Richard Synge (while working in Leeds) received a Nobel Prize for the invention of partition chromatography in 1952, food scientists began to develop flavours via a gas chromatograph, a device that allowed scientists to understand chemical compounds behind complex flavours such as cheese.Whilst Bestway Wholesale uses reasonable endeavors to ensure that the product information presented is accurate and up to date it does not accept any liability for any information which may not be accurate, it is not a substitute for reading the product packaging or label prior to use. Along with this packaging design, there came news that the company would begin using real meat products in its Smoky Bacon and Roast Chicken flavoured crisps. Walkers updated its packaging style in June 2007, moving to a brand identity reminiscent of the logo used from 1998 to 2006. The Walkers factory in Leicester produces over 11 million bags of crisps per day, using about 800 tons of potatoes.
