I thought it was very interesting what he said about how supermarket own brands seem to be copying Walkers colour scheme… that suggests that eventually the blue = salt and vinegar and green = cheese and onion will die off over time? Is it mainly just McCoys now holding out?
Ah, so you also got recommended that video by YouTube, eh?
Damn, I have this video saved to my watch later playlist! I should have posted this here and got the karma instead!
Ah well. That’ll be Golden Wonder then.
Over here Tayto continue to set the standard
Blue is salt and Vinegar
Green is Spring Onion
Yellow is Cheese & Onion (depending on which side of the border you are but it’s fine)
Personally I’m on the blue cheese and onion side
The thing that fascinates me the most about this is the collective hallucination that the majority of this country has experienced by thinking that there was a swap in the colours, rather than the actual reason that we just switched to different crisps.
Who cares
LOL thanks for the downvotes. I’m guessing you’re the kind of people who brag about having seen Brass Eye and quote the IT Crowd whenever football comes up.
Walker’s Squares are being deliberately obtuse
I could live on salt and vinegar if it provided all the healthy things. I think i prefer the green for sv now… ive been programmed.
They’ve never swapped colours, walkers are just wrong and always have been.
Golden Wonder actually have flavour.
I miss Worcester sauce… 😢
Do people actually care about this or is it just a meme?
Did I imagine Walkers salt and vinegar in the 90’s being brown then?
Absolutely infuriating
Is it not pringles that set the blue salt & vinegar standard throughout the 90’s? Not in a packet but still popular crisps!
Finally I know why Golden Wonder disappeared seemingly overnight. When I was a kid, GW were the best crisps followed by Smiths. Then one day, GW had vanished. Turned out a strike and a fire pretty much destroyed them.
Now, what happened to salted Chipsticks? I loved those crunchy corn snacks.
Blue will always be salt and vinegar to me. To the point I am convinced walkers changed in the 90s. No amount of proof will tell me otherwise!
I swear they had an ad campaign to announce the change as well.
This guy fills my Tom Scott need!
Wankers
I knew this happened but my mother gaslit me into thinking I was wrong
This guy thinks he is the new Tom Scott but his delivery is so boring it makes me never want to watch his videos
Chris has made some great videos, he deserves all the views we can muster up
The new tom Scott
TIL that all crisps made in the UK go out of date on a Saturday, regardless of brand.
There’s a great podcast about this in the style of those true crime ones. The Walkers Switch.
This guy done a cracking video on clock towers on supermarkets

Henry of Skalitz has come a long way
hey, u/flatworm_elk this is all your fault (0:27).
I remember when all the flavours were in white bags with blue stripes.
It’s just *Walkers* is wrong. Everyone knows dark blue is ready salted; red is tomato ketchup and green is cheese and onion.
Blame Walkers.
We all knew what we were doing until Walkers came in and ruined it
The matrix is slowly crumbling….what’s next?

Australia is even weirder
