Monster Munch Giants Pickled Onion - 85g

Pickled onion Monster Munch lives in the corner of the British crisp aisle where flavours are allowed to be loud. Ask a room of Brits to name a Monster Munch flavour and pickled onion comes up first, usually followed by a small argument about whether anything else counts.

Pickled onion is a hard flavour to find once you have left Britain, so the craving tends to sneak up on people. It might be a homesick evening, or the week after a trip back when the suitcase turned out to hold more clothes than snacks. Either way, the search ends here.

The 85g bag suits one person with no self-control or two people with firm rules. It sits happily in the cupboard until the moment strikes, and once it is open a clip will keep it, though it rarely gets the chance. Lunchbox, sofa or next to a pint: all fair.

Walkers makes a lot of what a British snack cupboard is missing, so a bag of these usually goes in the basket next to a few of the crisps people grew up on. Salt and vinegar makes a sensible partner, if you enjoy pulling faces.
