The Walkers Sensations chips are being launched in a series of new flavors in the UK as a way to help consumers satisfy guests when entertaining this Easter. The snack chips come in two flavors including Slow-Roasted Pork & Apple Sauce and Thai Sweet Chilli, which are each characterized by their sweet yet savory taste profile. The products each come in 150-gram packets and respond to increasing consumer interest in seasonal food items with a limited time profile.
Senior Marketing Director Wayne Newton commented on the new Walkers Sensations chips saying, "Walkers Sensations has always been about delivering a premium snacking experience and the limited-edition Slow-Roasted Pork & Apple Sauce flavour will give people looking for a delicious snack an unrivalled taste experience. Easter is a crucial opportunity for retailers to be driving their savoury snacking sales.
