One of Heartland’s new chip flavours is inspired by a Kiwi delicacy!
The Timaru-based chip brand has included a ‘Mousetraps’ flavour as part of their ‘Kiwi Fav’ range, alongside ‘Roast Pork and Apple Sauce Roll’ and ‘Apricot Chicken’. Yup, the marmite and melted cheese Kiwi delicacy is legit now in chip form.
Although, it may not be as nostalgia-inducing as we hope. The flavours listed are ‘bacon, cheese and onion’. A distinct lack of the iconic black-coloured, yeast spread! It better still taste good.
The other two sound pretty interesting for a chip flavour, but I’m defs most intrigued by the Mousetrap. Other people in Heartland’s comments either want to give them all a go or absolutely none of them.
“Wow!” wrote one person. “Will definitely be looking out for these in the supermarket. May have to get one of each, just to try them all because I can't choose which one to start with!”
“OMFG,” said another. “I’m soooo getting those flavours - they all sound yummmmy.”
“Interesting,” a third added. “I will have to try. My favourite winter meal is roast pork and apple sauce.”
“These sound truly awful,” one more said, adding a very specific request. “Yet Roast Beef & Mustard flavour seems beyond your abilities.”
Another crossover of Kiwi favourites came last month when Heineken shared their recipe for a beer-based shandy cocktail.
They teamed up with cocktail professional cocktail mixer Dave Ryan to create two unique cocktails that will have you sipping on the modernised tastes.
Looks like I’m gonna have a few mid-morning Mousetrap chips and wash them down with a Heineken shandy!
