Walkers axes popular crisps as devastated fans say they’re ‘better than Wotsits’

Walkers is one of the most popular crisp brands out there.

But recently the brand left fans heartbroken as it ditched salt and vinegar Quavers and axed a popular crisp flavour. Now another favourite has been removed from the line-up.

Wotsits are best known for their iconic cheese flavour, but now Brits discovered one of its latest editions has been quietly axed. The Sizzling Steak flavour is no longer on supermarket shelves.

Crisp lovers had raved about the flavour in reviews online, with many claiming it was their favourite. But now it's left the collection.

One upset fan turned to X, formerly Twitter, and wrote: "Are Sizzling Steak Wotsits now discontinued as well? Can't find them anywhere anymore."

Walkers responded: "Hi we're sorry but Sizzling Steak Wotsits are no longer part of our range." The Brit then replied with two heartbroken emojis.

Another described the flavour as "much better than original Wotsits". While a third praised them as "full of flavour". And a fourth added: "The best flavour Wotsits ever! Can't beat them!"

Before January 2020, the steak Wotsits were known as BBQ Beef. Despite the new flavour being marketed as a comeback, Walkers claimed both flavours used different seasonings.

BBQ Beef and Flamin' Hot were both removed from shelves in the early 2000s, which left fans disappointed. Meanwhile Walkers caused a stir by ditching Worcester sauce flavoured crisps.

In a separate statement, an employee said customers can pick up the ketchup flavour instead. But this didn't seem to satisfy crisp fanatics.

A social media user remarked: "That's a real shame, I enjoyed them in a sandwich!" Another added: "Worcester sauce were amazing as a crisp sandwich but nah you got rid of them."
