The collaboration introduces potato chips that taste like [Gourmet Burger Kitchen's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elevated-tea-spritzers) Classic [Cheeseburger](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/takeaway-pockets), Yo! Sushi's Katsu Curry, Nando's Peri-Peri Chicken and more. Each of the potato chip bags features a large image of the dish it takes inspiration from, and prominently features the name of the partnering restaurant. Appealing to avid restaurant-goers, the Walkers Taste Icons range includes a two-for-one restaurant voucher in every chip pack. Although the current global situation is preventing people from being able to redeem these vouchers at restaurants immediately, they will be available for an extended period of time.
