Blair's Death Rain Buffalo Wing Cauldron Cooked Potato Chips

Noble friend and I decided that these are crisps for blokes. Tall Taste Tester disagreed; he reckons these are crisps for gentlemen. But basically, it seemed that the gents in our office liked these crisps better than the ladies. And we're not really quite sure why.

Here we have another 1.5oz packet (43g) of the amazingly chillified crisps from Blair's Death Rain. Actually, according to the packet these crisps are only medium hot, but they seemed pretty hot to me.

However, while the chilli spiciness is great, the buffalo wing part of this crispy snack is not at all obvious. We really couldn't detect it.

And in case you didn't know (I'm sure you do - but just in case) buffalo wings are of course not the wings of buffaloes at all, but chicken wings. Which for some reason used always to come from Buffalo NY. Hence the name.

I really have no idea why anyone eats a chicken wing unless they don't have access to any other food. It's bone, skin, sinew and other unsavoury stuff. Where's the meat? I even have friends who like the wing best. Really? I guess it takes all sorts. But anyway, we couldn't detect any chicken here.

The packet doesn't say suitable for vegetarians so there may be chicken included but the best clue I can offer from the list of ingredients is natural flavour (several times).

The crisps got eaten very quickly.
