I was in Memphis
recently for an internal auditor training class. The instructor travels around the globe
to teach this class. At one point she
was talking about Asia . This is what I heard, “If anyone is ever in Singapore I’d
like to place an order for a bag of Walkers blah, blah, blah.” Okay, so she actually said something more
specific than that, but the flavor she mentioned sounded so off the wall I
thought her utterly crazy.
Fast forward a few weeks.
Picture me and Paige sitting at the bar at Boyd’s Jig and Reel, our favorite
Scottish pub. I know, it might be hard
to conjure such an image…keep trying, it'll come to you.
They have this board next to the bar filled with potato chips. As I stared at them while sipping my Highland
Gaelic Ale it clicked…the bags were Walkers.
I read some of the flavors. Steak
and Onion? Are you serious? Brits must be desperate! And if you really want to see the level of craziness when it come to these snacks have a look here.
It took another few weeks before we got up
the nerve to try the Prawn Cocktail flavor.
Holy cow…tasty! Moral of this story…you never do know when you will run
across something new that will alter your perception of potato chips!
