The whole story
Walkers, in full.
Walkers Oven Baked are baked crisps made from potato flakes, and Sun Dried Tomato and Basil is the Mediterranean one, which the pack marks as new. This is the 150g sharing bag, which the listing says holds five servings. The full product name on the pack is sun dried tomato and basil flavour baked potato snack, and the maker on the label is Walkers Snack Foods Ltd.
The ingredients
According to the printed pack, the crisps are made from potato flakes, starch, rapeseed oil, a sundried tomato and basil seasoning (flavourings, salt, potassium chloride, dried herbs: basil and parsley, citric acid and paprika extract), sugar, an emulsifier (lecithins), sunflower oil and annatto norbixin for colour.
Always baked, never fried
The pack says always baked, never fried. Potato flakes and starch are made into a dough, formed into thin, ridged slices and baked, which gives a light, even crunch rather than the brittle snap of a fried slice.
Tomato without tomato
No tomato is named on the list. The sun dried tomato taste comes from the flavourings, which lead the seasoning, with citric acid for the tang of a ripe tomato.
Basil and parsley
Dried basil and parsley are the herbs you can see on the crisps, and basil gives the sweet, peppery note of an Italian tomato salad.
Potassium chloride
Potassium chloride sits beside the salt. It tastes salty but contains no sodium, and the salt figure on a UK label is worked out from sodium.
Sugar
Sugar in the dough gives the crisps 5.7g of sugars per 100g, amber on the front of pack scale, and 1.7g in a 30g serving.
Numbers per serving
The pack gives 127 kcal (535 kJ), 3.8g of fat, 0.4g of saturates, 21g of carbohydrate, 1.7g of sugars, 1.8g of fibre, 1.6g of protein and 0.26g of salt for a 30g serving, which it puts at 6% of an average adult's daily energy reference intake, 5% of the fat and 4% of the salt.
Numbers per 100g
Per 100g the pack gives 424 kcal (1784 kJ), 13g of fat, 1.2g of saturates, 69g of carbohydrate, 5.7g of sugars, 6g of fibre, 5.4g of protein and 0.88g of salt.
Reading the front of the pack
On the UK front of pack scale, per 100g, fat at 13g is amber. Saturates at 1.2g are green. Sugars at 5.7g are amber. Salt at 0.88g is amber.
Fat
The label gives 13g of fat per 100g and 3.8g in a 30g serving, amber on the front of pack scale, with rapeseed and sunflower oils in the dough.
Flavourings
The flavourings lead the seasoning, ahead of the salt; the listing does not say what they are made from.
Potato flakes
Potato flakes are dried, cooked potato; with starch, they make a dough that can be rolled thin and baked.
Lecithins
Lecithins are emulsifiers that help the dough mix evenly.
Annatto
Annatto norbixin, a colour from the seeds of the achiote tree, gives the crisps a golden colour.
Carbohydrate and fibre
The label gives 69g of carbohydrate per 100g, of which 5.7g are sugars; the rest is starch from the potato flakes and the added starch. Fibre is 6g and protein 5.4g per 100g.
Allergens and diet
No allergens from the UK list of 14 are highlighted in the printed ingredients. The allergy advice on the pack says the crisps may contain mustard, milk, soya, wheat and other cereals containing gluten. The pack says they are suitable for vegetarians; there is no vegan statement. Recipes and factory arrangements change, so check the allergy advice on the pack you receive.
Five servings
The listing says the 150g bag holds five servings of 30g. Tip a serving into a bowl rather than eating from the bag.
Once opened
The listing advises a cool, dry place and says to eat the crisps within 3 days of opening, so fold the bag down and clip it shut.
No added MSG
The pack says there is no added MSG and no artificial colours or preservatives.
The pack
The bag is cream at the top and orange below, with a new flash, the Walkers logo, the words oven baked in white, sun dried tomato and basil flavour, a pile of ridged baked crisps with tomatoes and basil leaves, a round badge on the side and the 150g weight.
Who it suits
A tomato and herb baked crisp suits anyone who likes a light, Mediterranean flavour and a light, even crunch, and the vegetarian statement suits most tables. Anyone avoiding milk, soya, mustard or gluten should read the may contain advice.
Serving ideas
Serve the crisps with a mozzarella and tomato salad, a glass of white wine or a bowl of olives.
In the kitchen
Crushed, the crisps make a herby crumb for the top of a pasta bake or a bowl of tomato soup.
Tomato soup
A tomato and basil crisp is a natural partner for a bowl of tomato soup, crumbled on top or served on the side.

A wide, shallow bowl
A clip or a peg
Method
Choose a wide shallow bowl rather than a deep one; the weight of a deep pile breaks the crisps at the bottom.
Pour out half the bag, not all of it.
Clip the bag shut and refill the bowl as it empties, so what is in the bowl is always fresh.
Once a sharing bag is open, clip it tight. Air is what turns a crisp soft.
