Walkers and KFC team up for two new flavours of chicken crisps

Chicken is one of the best flavours on the market when it comes to crisps; Just ask Mr James May, who – according to Tim Rodie – can be fuelled exclusively on chicken crisps.

This new joint product between KFC and Walkers will likely come as a great surprise for James, who now has more choices than ever for his love of chicken-flavoured crispy snacks.

Walkers have now announced they are partnering with fried chicken giants KFC to launch TWO new KFC specials - regular Kentucky Fried Chicken flavour, and KFC Zinger, both available exclusively as 'MAX' ridged crisps.

Not only are we being treated to two exciting new flavours, but every bag also doubles up as a 2-for-1 voucher at the time of writing, giving any purchaser 50% off when they buy two meals from KFC's 'Meals for One' range.

Even if you pick up your crisps now and can't get to a KFC any time soon, the deal will remain valid up until the 31st of July 2021, meaning you have plenty of time to get your hands on both the delicious new crisps, but also a discount meal.

Katherine Cook, Senior Brand Manager at Walkers was ecstatic about the new collaboration with KFC: “There are some things in life that just make perfect sense, and KFC-flavoured Walkers MAX crisps are one of them! With the irresistible, deep-ridged crunch of Walkers MAX combined with the flavour of KFC’s much-loved recipes, our new crisps make for the ultimate, satisfying snack when you’re hungry!”

Naturally, Hazell White, Senior Brand Manager at KFC, was also pleased about the new product: “We’re so excited that two iconic brands are finally colliding and we can bring our signature Kentucky Fried Chicken and Zinger flavours to Walkers MAX crisps! Yes, these crisps are delicious, but we do know that nothing beats the real thing so we’ve added in a 2-for-1 deal so fans nationwide can get a taste of our epic Meals for One range.”

The new flavours will be rolled out across the UK, in a variety of sizes from 50g grab bag sizes up to 140g sharing bags.
