Walkers has introduced a new vegan range just in time for Veganuary – and it includes a line of meaty and cheesy flavours like Grilled Cheese Toastie.
The crisp giant’s new line also includes tempting flavours like Flame Grilled Steak and BBQ Pork Ribs which the brand says taste ‘remarkably like the real deal’.
On top of that, it says the new range is not just designed for vegans, but has also been created to entice veggies and meat-eaters alike.
The timing of the launch has been coordinated to match with Veganuary.
Last year, people participated in 2022, so these limited edition crisps offer an alternative for those worried about missing out on meaty and cheesy flavours.
