Tesco Finest Chilli & Maple Parsnip Crisps

Hello All,

With Christmas just around the corner, I came across these Limited Edition Crisps that are around until Christmas. I have had vegetable crisps before but not just a bag of parsnip ones. Although when I first saw this bag I thought it was chilli and maple parsnip flavoured potato crisps. I didn't realise they were parsnip crisps until I opened the bag.

Tesco Finest Chilli & Maple Parsnip Crisps

"Parsnip crisps with a chilli and maple flavour seasoning.
Our experts work closely with farmers to select the variety of parsnips that gives just the right crunch. Each parsnip is carefully sliced and fried in small batches under the watchful eye of specially trained fryers. They stir each batch gently, select the best crisps, then tumble them carefully in seasoning for a perfectly even coating.
LIMITED EDITION HAND COOKED CRISPS."

These crisps were very crunchy. A lot more than regular potato crisps. I didn't mind that though and I was glad they weren't greasy either. They started off tasting like sweet parsnip with a kick. As I got my way through more, the taste started to change. For some reason I couldn't taste parsnip anymore. All I could taste was coconut. It actually tasted like I was eating hot chilli coconut! The heat was coming through a lot more and there was no more sweetness at all. It really felt like I was eating coconut shavings with chilli. Yuck!

I didn't get any maple flavour at all. Just a sweetness to begin with. How the hell can these go from tasting of parsnip to coconut? What did this bag of crisps do to my tastebuds? I have no idea how these crisps got 4/5 stars. I would only give these 1/5 and that's pushing it! No no no! Do not like these at all.
