Walkers Tiger Nuts

Anyone tried them, I'm addicted to the Salt & Vinegar ones. Bacon ones quite nice too and I have a packet of the curry ones in the cupboard to try too. My new snack of choice:)

I didn't know Walkers did these so thanks for that. I posted a week or so ago in the international snack thread that Tijgernootjes were my favourite snack. I think these will be the same thing. Just ordered some.

Yep, they're the same as Tijgernootjes, but with British flavours.
Are they a new thing in Britain?

[Deleted User] · 30/05/13 - 17:03

Yes, only launched in April. I'm very excited about tomorrow's grocery delivery. No idea what else I have ordered apart from Tiger Nuts.

I wasn't aware of these!:eek: I love tiger nuts.

I remember ( I'm 55 btw:rolleyes::() that I used to buy a match box size pack of these on the way home from school.

I've only ever been reunited with them during holidays in Valencia.

Will definitely be on the look out!

Who sells them? Tesco etc?

They are definitely in Asda online. I'll be gutted if they don't arrive tomorrow

I'm aiming for Asda after the gym tomorrow! Thanks Jackie.:)
Our Tesco & Asda are a ten minute walk from each other so I'm sure hubby can chauffeur me around.:o:D

I used to buy ' horchatas' (sp?) the low fat one when in Valencia - love it.
Now we only go to in laws in Turkey as we've an apartment there too - bus man's holiday.:(

Yay! We have Tiger Nuts!

It looks like they have just stuck a Walkers sticker over the pack too.

Tijgernootjes. Hurray!

[Deleted User] · 01/06/13 - 04:37

Just demolished another packet of salt n vinegar! I didnt like the curry ones.

[Deleted User] · 01/06/13 - 05:53

I thought Tigers were protected these days

[Deleted User] · 01/06/13 - 23:54

I got some but was too scared to put my hand in the packet.

I hope you weren't disappointed Utopian Girl, as the Walkers Tiger Nuts are peanuts with a stripey flavoured coating (supposedly to look like tiger stripes) as opposed to chufas (tiger nuts) which you were referring to and which make the drink "horchata de chufas", which I agree is delicious

The bacon ones are horrible. They taste all synthetic and give me a headache.

Havn't tried these yet but here is a really good review on the Walkers Tiger Nuts.
Masala Curry, Smoky Bacon, Salt & Vinegar and Sweet Chilli.

Ha, that press release. "Walkers have developed a new snack". They've been around in the Netherlands for decades.
The British flavours look delicious. Next time I'm in the UK I'll give them a try.

Really?!:eek:
Aww, I am disappointed - fortunately we didn't go to the major supermarkets as our freezer/fridges were full - I was anticipating 'chufas' Tasa.:(
Thanks for letting me know.

The sweet chilli flavour are lovely. Don't like curry flavour tiger nuts.

degsyhufc · 06/06/13 - 01:37

So these are just coated peanuts then. Just like Nobby's Nuts.

[Deleted User] · 06/06/13 - 01:57

I bought the Masala Curry ones from ASDA and thought they were yummy!

degsyhufc · 17/06/13 - 00:02

I've tried the S&V and the curry ones. Not fussed with either. Nobby's Sweet Chilli are better but personally not fussed with coated nuts at all.

Hey there!
