Right americans , Walkers comes from UK, and americans changed the name to lays. So its not a knock off. It was invented in the UK.
Americans are the pick me’s of the planet
This is not true, Pepsi acquired walkers in 1989, and already had Lays-Frito, Lays actually has a lot to do with Walkers development well before this acquisition. They had gone to the US to learn about the production methods.This was to beat Golden Wonder and Smiths. It was Walker's logo that changed, to match lays.
This a good documentary on the history British Crisp brands on YT.
That's not true at Champions League matches it says Lays on the billboards because of copyright reasons
Lays didn't copy.
Walkers is a British company, lays is an American company.
Pepsi bought both and just changed the branding so they look the same, but they are still both separate companies
@@davem12dim17 just weird when americans say its a knock off copy of lays. I dont know why americans dont learn history, i bet americans think they created the flushable toilet.
Girl with the coloured hair has the best personality on YT
I thought Tyrion Lancaster had taken “ the change “…
@@leegodfrey4832 not watched Lord of Rings yet mate
@@gmdhargreaves 😂😂
The men seem fixated on talking up American alternatives and dissing anything British.
I don’t know, they seem to love the crisps.
Great Skylar and Rylee enjoyed The different Walkers Crisps.
Walkers were established in Leicester in 1948, during the 1970s they held 56% of the UK crisp market.
Leicester pronounced LESS TER 🇬🇧
Click video, Skyla and Rylee right off the bat... you know it's gonna be a good video.
❤️
The instant regret on Skylas face after shoving a whole monster munch in was great! We learn from that mistake at a young age over here 🤣
They are pretty addictive crisps though! (and yep, your breath stinks for ages afterwards! )
i laughed mi arse off seeing there faces after eating the monster munch nice 1 keep up with the great vids 👍👍👍
Thank you so much!
what make me laugh in a nice way, how you americans struggle with monster munch, here in the UK they are aimed at children, for a snack pack lunch, and the likes of that, we adults like them to
Also Americans say British food is bland. But they can't handle our crisps.
Somebody needs to teach one of them the difference between subjective and objective.
Pickled onion are my favourite flavour of monster munch, they get the taste buds tingling the 2nd the bag opens
The lays logo was changed to match the walkers logo when lays bought walkers.
Not true, look up old Walkers logo.
lays had thsi design 1 year earlier in 1997
Lays did not buy walkers
@@davem12dim17sure Pepsi bought them both
@@jamiebrooks3864 exactly
I want a Skyla podcast. Like a Joe Rogan thing with scientists and stuff, I'd love to hear her questions.
Thought Skyla wouldn't like the monster munch as they're pretty strong. She liked all the crisps. Well done everyone.
Thank you so much!
Btw you can thank the Irish for the flavoured crisps/chips Tayto was the first to add flavour directly to crisp (cheese and onion) and this was based on new technology that helped isolate the compounds behind flavour so they could be recreated in a stable form, walkers applied this.
Thank you!
Walkers aren't a knock off, they were founded in 1948 and bought out by Pepsi Co in fact BOTH are owned by Pepsi Co so Lays could be classed as a 'knock off'
Lays actually were founded first but neither is a knock off. As you said they’re just both owned by the same company now.
Walkers is the older crisp manufacturer but Walkers and Lays are now both owned by PepsiCo.
Lays and Walkers are both owned by PepsiCo, so they share the same logo as they're pretty much the same brand but targetted for different markets.
i just put the history up above for you to read :)
Quavers are addictive! It's takes some serious willpower to stop at only one pack
Wotsits are nice but not nice enough to justify that they stain your fingers orange 😮😂
The two nicest Walkers are salt & vinegar (amazing on cheese sandwiches 🤤) and smokey bacon.
Marmite is a crime against humanity in all it's forms 🤢🤮
Picked onion Monster Munch are amazing, but intense to say the least 😂 you will absolutely be tasting it at the back of your mouth for at least 24 hours 😂
Skyla, cheesy line i know but the only thing delectable here is you ❤
Lamb and mint is the goat walkers flavour sensations chilli and sensation roast chicken are also unrealb
Smokey bacon are by far the worst flavoured walllkers crisp
"Is it like marmalade?"
"THE MOST EMPHATIC NO EVER UTTERED"
Walkers' Marmite crisps are probably the best introduction to Marmite one can have. I've watched a lot of these "Americans react to UK foods!" videos and invariably you can buckle in when that little jar appears and they spread it on toast like peanut butter. I can eat it straight from the jar, but I've been eating it for decades. For your first time, it needs to be a mere suggestion that the jar was here once.
The monster munch ones look like the shape of those short run chester cheeta paws.
Also A1 originated in London UK!
a bit of history for you guys, Lays is the OLDER company, but WALKERS was making potato chips (crisps) longer. lol its complicated, lays started off as a company making household goods, while walkers appeared later making crisps, then lays stopepd making household goods and started making potato chips (crisps) then pepsi co bought out lays, anmd later boguht out walkers, and merged the logos into one logo keeping thee origial names, sdo lays is the older company but walkers has been making crisps LONGER than lays so is the older crisp maker. confusing but i hope understandable lol
In the groovy year of 1970, the Walker family decided to hand over their crisp empire to the American food producer, Standard Brands. Fast forward to 1989, and the iconic crisp brand got a new owner: Frito-Lay, a division of PepsiCo. they didnt want to lose the customers of walkers so they kept the name in the UK... but everywhere else changed to lays.
Walkers were Britain's largest and most well known crisp/chip brand for decades but the company was sold to Frito-Lays, who wisely kept the Walkers brand name for the UK market. I suspect this was because there would have been public outrage/revolt if they'd tried to rebrand them to Lays.
@@obijon7441 Smiths then Golden wonder were once bigger. Lays actually helped Walker's market position by helping with capital investment an production methods.
Um no Herman Lay started with purchase of crisp company in 1939 and sold it out the back of his car.. Don't forget that crisp are themselves american invention, especially the production methods for mass production (not to be confused with kettle crisps) . Walkers was only founded in 1948 though was a butcher's shop before that.
I don't knwo where you get household goods from. Both lays and Fritos were only ever sold snacks. Frito are a corn based snack simualr to tortilla chips.
@@paulthomas8262 crisps them selves arent american at all, The earliest known recipe for something similar to today's potato chips is in William Kitchiner's book The Cook's Oracle published in 1817, which was a bestseller in the United Kingdom and the United States.
The story of the chip’s birth dates back to the 19th century. George Crum, a chef of Native and African American descent, was working at Moon’s Lake House in the resort town of Saratoga Springs, New York. One day in 1853, he was pushed to the end of his tether when his employer sent the food he had prepared back to the kitchen.
His boss, the railroad and shipping magnate Cornelius Vanderbilt, claimed that his fried potatoes were much too thick. Crum, frustrated by this fussiness, decided to send a message back to the dining room by cutting teeny-tiny strips of potatoes that he fried to a - well, a crisp.Vanderbilt, far from taking this as the foody middle finger it was supposed to be, loved the crunchy potato slivers!
The spread of the crisp
Other patrons started asking for Crum’s ‘Saratoga Chips’ and the snack became a firm favourite far beyond New York. In 1860 Crum opened his very own restaurant where guests were welcomed with a basket of crisps, or ‘potato chips’, on each table. Crum ran his joint for over 30 years before taking his retirement. American Heritage magazine dubbed him ‘the Edison of grease’.
That negative guy who said all American reaction channels hate monster munch. Nearly all the ones I’ve seen loved them.
Negative Noah? Yeah…
I feel sorry for the person doing the replies on the comment section. Lays was first but each were independent of each other until Pepsi swooped in and gobbled them up. If you look at the logo it is similar to that of Pepsi. I remember when walkers didnt have that logo and wagon wheels were huge.
Thank you! The Brits are proud of their crisps as they should be! They’re delicious.
Bit more context crisp/chips are as American as penut butter ( more American than even burgers, hot dogs and fries). The Irish Tayto were the first to add flavour other than salt to a potato chipw, then Walker's came up with the next flavours. Anyone old enough would know that smiths then golden wonder were the market leaders until Walker's beat them at their own game. All of the were interested in what was happening in the US and would visit look at what was happening with snacks in general.
Never mind the debate about Lays/Walkers how about comparing the ingredients. UK/European crisps and snacks have far fewer artificial ingredients than those in the USA and flavours overall are more natural. The guy who said the flavours were weak is probably used to the artificial flavours that dominate their food processing.
I know it’s top comment but the logo is British, its walkers, Lays adopted it when they bought walkers.
Thanks Sjyla.
Walkers was walkers, UK brand..........lays bought them, kept name.....used the lays logo.
If you want a real Marmite-y snack try Twiglets.
We’ll look for them!
I thought these were Smiths crisps when I was young....in the early 70s .....right up there with Caramac( for 2p)😸👍
Smiths were a competitor one of the first. They lost to Golden Wonder. Technically they still exist bit nothing like their heyday.
‘Knock off Lays’ hahahaha
Yeah right
Wotsits are older than Cheeto puffs. American made Cheetos are banned in the uk.
as they should be!
Qwaversvers and Watsits are considered low fat for anyone bothered by that and in need of a one treat a day treat.
Yeah but who on earth eats just ONE bag of Quavers?! Especially those tiny multi-pack bags, I can practically inhale one of those in a single gobfull.😊
@obijon7441 not me, I'd eat the lot. Same with Skips lol! 😀
You should try to get something of the Walkers Sensation range with flavours like Sweet chilli, Mango etc, they are great. Almost forgot I'm not sure if you have Cheese and onion flavour over there but the Walkers brand are excellent 🇬🇧
British company American owned
😂 " it's weak .. like teeeeaaa " 😂
Yeah he needs a slap. lol.
🤷🏻♂️
Wow, what a video! We have the (often) Negative Noah actually admitting to liking something and it's MARMITE flavor! WTF, he does have taste 😉, Josh is as entertaining as ever 😂, even Skyla the vegetarian has good taste buds, who knew! 😁
Love this comment!
Walkers was around way before Lays!
Lays began first but not by that much. They’re both owned by Pepsico now explaining the similarities.
@@SouthernTriedChannel My information says Walkers crisps was founded in 1948 and Frito Lays was founded 1961.
@delskioffskinov Frito-Lay was the merge of two companies that already existed. Herman Lay was selling Crisps in the 1930’s in our little area of the US.
Didnt the company that own lays and walkers change lays logo to match walkers?
Fairly certain walkers had the branding before lays.
Lays is the older brand but yes they’re both owned by Pepsico now.
Let's get it right, our snacks came first.. same as we taught you English
I remember when Walkers (Pepsi Co) tried to take on Wotsits using Cheetos and they just couldn't do it so Pepsi Co bought the Wotsit brand instead from KP for £122 million, surprised they haven't started making them in the US under they're Lays brand because people here at least preferred Wotsits to Cheetos
I think cheetos are pretty nice. Though I also love wotsits.
Our TRYers seemed to mostly love both!
Why does that man have my grannies hair bun
😂 We’ll have him read this on air in January when we review the years comments and maybe he can tell you!
Julius chose the wrong t shirt for that day, certainly weren't no good vibes coming from him....
I HATED working over the road from where Quavers are made, if the wearhouse roof vents where open and the wind was from the wrong direction the CRAVING got REEEEEEEEAL!!!!!!
That could ruin it real fast
@@SouthernTriedChannel Naaa! still love em!
Problem was none of the vending machines in that place stocked Quavers, so the craving was tourture!
Now imagine living in another country where they’re almost impossible to find…
@@SouthernTriedChannel eh! I have freinds in loooow places!!!
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases?
What a complete pair of tools in the caps.
IMO Golden Wonder and McCoy's are better than Walker's. I Would say Tayto are on par. Smith's are nothing like what they used to be, and rare. Kettle crisp/chips are a whole other thing there are some good brands, a little bitter but I like them.
We will have to TRY them!
Seperate companies but both owned by Pepsi
walkers are the original
Lays actually was founded first but both are owned by Pepsico now.
They are not knock off Lays, Walkers originated in the UK and went over to America, so technically, Lays are knock offs 🤣
Lays started before Walkers but they’re owned by the same company now which explains the similarities our TRYers saw.
Lays came out nearly 12yr before us brits got walkers, the amount of my own countries people Brits assume lays came after, are dumb as Walkers came after Lays, we had are heads virtually in the war front of ww2
Walkers came first lays is the knock off
Lays is actually about 15 years older than Walkers. Both are owned by Pepsico now though.
@@SouthernTriedChannel exactly the point walkers was its own company
Nothing. To do with lays till then
They were one of the first in the uk
@mikewhitby2686 and they’re fantastic!
Walkers came first. Sorry to break it to you.
Lays was actually founded first. Both are owned by Pepsico now.
knock off Lays ? Someone please educate that dude.
Lays began first but not by that much. They’re both owned by Pepsico now explaining the similarities.
Google it before saying out
@@SouthernTriedChannel The only thing similar is the logo. You cannot call the UK biggest crisp (always has been) a knock off just because Pespi bought them. Thats my point :)
Our TRYers called it a knock off and most comment are of British people correcting that Lays is the knock off. The reality is they’re two separate crisps, both loved or they wouldn’t be so popular that are now owned but the same company so the logo is familiar.
