Cheese and onion is the safe choice, the flavour that everyone tolerates and few actively celebrate. Burts’ Mature Cheddar & Onion challenges that mediocrity, demanding that you actually pay attention to what you’re eating.
The cheddar here is noticeably more complex than standard cheese crisp flavouring. There’s a sharpness and depth that suggests someone actually considered what mature cheddar tastes like before creating the seasoning.
The onion balance
The onion plays a supporting role, adding sweetness and bite without competing with the cheese. It’s well-judged, enhancing the cheddar rather than fighting it for dominance.
Together they create a cheese and onion experience that feels grown-up. These are crisps for adults who’ve moved beyond the orange-dusted offerings of their youth.
The hand cooked canvas
Bold flavours need substantial crisps to carry them. Burts’ thick-cut base provides exactly that, with enough surface area and structural integrity to handle the generous seasoning.
The irregular shapes mean varying flavour intensity across the bag, which keeps things interesting rather than monotonous.
Above the competition
Most cheese and onion crisps are forgettable. These aren’t. They stake a claim for the flavour being worthy of premium treatment.
If you think you don’t like cheese and onion, try these before deciding.
