In order to get the word out about the newest six-piece sandwich-inspired potato chip collection from [Heinz](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walkers-chips) and Walkers, a "speakeasy-style" pop-up sandwich club was launched in London. 'The [Walkers Crisp Sarnie Club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sandwich-sommeliers)' gave people the chance to create their own [potato chip-filled sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uber-eats-sandwich-studio), which were also served alongside a small sampling of the crisps. This unique activation celebrates the British tradition of adding potato chips to a sandwich as something that's particularly unique to the country.

Flavors in the unusual potato chip range include Ham & Mustard, Sausage & Brown Sauce and Bacon & Tomato Ketchup, which make for especially flavorful sandwich additions or standalone snacks.

At the pop-up event, people had the chance to climb onto giant sandwich props before having their photos taken.
