Shoppers left divided over 'grim' Coca-Cola flavoured crisps

There are so many flavoured crisps out there from your classic Ready Salted to Cheese and Onion.

But there are also some unusual flavours out there and whilst our minds may jump to a savoury flavour, there's a stranger one out there and it's certainly dividing shoppers.

Taking to Facebook's Food Finds UK group, one shopper shared Tayto Fizzy Cola crisps and people quickly ran to the comments and not to much the shop with one person stating they sounded "grim" with another asking if they could try it.

According to the product description, the new limited edition Fizzy Cola Crisps are "surprisingly good" and if you're wondering, "the taste and smell is spot on" to that of the drink.

The rest of the description reads: "These Tayto Crisps are manufactured in the Republic of Ireland and is a separate brand to Tayto in Northern Ireland even though they have similar logos. Tayto was established by Joe ‘Spud’ Murphy in 1954 and today Tayto Crisps make a range of snacks, popcorn and crisps."

It's said to smell and taste like the fizzy drink. (Tayto.)

The crisps cost £1.99 and come in a pack size of 42g. Discussing the crisps, some were keen to give it a go by tagging their friends asking them to buy some. But some we're not as keen asking whether they wanted their crisps to taste like a drink.

One said: "I love Tayto crisps. But not sure I fancy these."

Another joked: "What in the thinly sliced Maris Piper is this?"

"Ordered five bags" wrote a keen third.
