Packet #62 D.P. Connolly & Sons Farmhouse Cheese & Red Onion

It seems 2012 is the year of the crisp. We've so many brands and flavours to choose from you could nearly do a Come Dine With Me and just serve crisps. If only someone would release an ice cream flavoured crisp. We can only dream...

Anyway onto my most recent selection, D.P. Connolly & Sons Farmhouse Cheese & Red Onion. That's a bit of a mouthful so I'm just going to call them DP's from now on. They're hand cooked and they're Irish. A good start, just like Ireland had on Sunday against the French, which was the match I happened to munch through DP's to. I'd arrived to the pub from work, late, thirsty and hungry so a pint and crisps were the obvious choice. That's when I noticed DP's, a pack I hadn't seen around before. I had often noticed their fancy looking lemonades about town so figured it was worth the punt.

Packet #5 - Walkers Sensations - Balsamic Vinegar & Caramelised Onion

After tasting the previous pack of Sensations I was a wee bit cautious about this lot. But it was a Friday night I was hungry so I thought why not give it a go.

And I'm glad I did. Same great crunch and texture as before only this time, packed full of flavour. First the onion hits you then comes balsamic vinegar. Neither flavour is too strong or over powering. I feel Walkers got the mixture just right here.

A massive improvement on the Thai Sweet Chilli pack which was evident by the speed in which they were eaten. They disappeared well before the start of Cranium and I look forward to taking on some more Sensations sometime in the future.

Deano.
