Shoppers are heading back to Tesco for its new Finest Crinkle Cut Japanese Fried Chicken Flavour crisps, with fans praising the taste and texture. The 150g bags retail at £1.50 and have been described as "perfect" and "delicious" by those who have tried them.
The crisps are part of Tesco's own Finest range, not from big-name brands like Walkers, Pringles, or McCoys. Enthusiasts have been sharing their reviews online, with many saying the flavour and crunch rival leading brands.
Fans Share Rave Reviews
On Reddit's crisp forum, one shopper wrote: "Absolutely bangin' new flavour from Tesco. Would highly recommend," alongside a picture of the packet. He added: "Great flavour and texture. Good crunch. Not much more to say to fellow crisps lovers. Just get some and see for yourself."
Another person commented: "I concur. Full, bold umami flavour with a hint of spiciness and a distinctively delicious oriental chicken taste. I particularly enjoyed the solid, corrugated texture of the crisp itself - the heft and crispiness of the cut was perfect, even rivalling McCoys."
A third reviewer said: "Yup, I had these for the first time yesterday, and I agree, peppery, nice deep non-artificial tasting chicken flavour. Destroyed the bag in no time." One shopper noted they were persuaded to try them after seeing "good feedback," and another revealed they had "had them last Christmas," calling them "really good."
Other Finest Flavours Available
The Tesco Finest range also includes Roast Beef & Horseradish, Spicy Smoked Paprika, Sea Salt & Chardonnay Vinegar, Maple BBQ, and Lightly Sea Salted varieties. The Japanese Fried Chicken flavour has prompted at least one shopper to plan a return trip, saying: "Guess I'll have to go back."
