meat.pro is meat you can’t beat

It’s been a while since I’ve gone to a market that has such weird-flavored U.K. chips as roast chicken. Lately my attention has been focused on U.S. chips that are made with beef, and taste of it. Roast chicken chips, or crisps as they call them on the other side of the pond, taste more like poultry seasoning than actual poultry. I was slightly surprised to learn that the U.K.’s tastes in savory snacks has transcended chicken and now includes Walkers Lamb & Mint Flavour Crisps.

To tell the truth, I feel a bit scooped by the folks over at Taquitos. I can’t wait until this strange new chip makes it to the States. The Taquitos crew characterized this latest oddity from Walker’s as both meaty and minty. Unlike the various brands of roast chicken flavor crisps I tasted, these babies are made with actual meat. Lamb powder, to be specific. The mint, on the other hand, tasted less than natural, according to the Taquitos team.
