Walkers , the Leicester crisps

From a butcher to a chip shop

Henry Walker was a butcher in Leicester. After the Second World War, meat was rationed and the workshop slowed down: in 1948, the company started making crisps. Walkers became the best-selling crisp brand in the UK, and it is still made in Leicester.

British perfumes

• Salt & Vinegar : salt and vinegar, the tangy taste. Available in 32.5g sachets or multipacks of 6.
• Prawn Cocktail : sweet and slightly pink, like the sauce in a prawn cocktail.
• Marmite : for those who like yeast extract.

In the UK, a packet of crisps accompanies a lunchtime sandwich and a pint at the pub.
