Walkers Crisps has launched a new range of Wotsits and Monster Munch crisps.

Walkers is responsible for a range of products including Wotsits, Quavers, Monster Munch, Squares and Bugles as well as their various ranges like Max and Sensations.

Several popular crisp flavours have been axed by the crisp giant recently.

In November 2023, Walkers revealed it had stopped making Salt and Vinegar Quavers, while in October fans discovered the popular Worcester sauce flavour had been discontinued.

The company has also confirmed recently they have stopped making Max Strong Hotsauce Blaze and Marmite flavoured crisps.

Discontinued UK sweets and chocolates

But its not been all bad news for crisp lovers with Walkers also releasing a number of new flavours in 2024.

In February, it added two new flavours to its Sensations range - Mature Cheddar and Chilli Chutney and Crushed Sea Salt & Black Peppercorn.

Then just a few weeks later shoppers spotted brand new Extra Flamin Hot Crunchy Wotsits in UK supermarkets.
