There's an exciting new addition to Walkers' iconic Quavers range, and one foodie who has sampled them already claims they are even better than the original cheese flavour Foodies appear to be thrilled after learning that Walkers has introduced a new flavour to its iconic Quavers range. Beginning as just cheese flavour, the snack has now spawned prawn cocktail and BBQ versions. Now, there's a new flavour in town, and crisp lovers can't wait to get their hands on it. One shopper who snapped up a packet on launch day took to TikTok and provided a glowing review to excited viewers. Sat in her car holding a multipacket, Libby May Fitzpatrick said: "I saw these were coming out today and I ran. I love Quavers, they are my favourite crisp and they are only 84 calories per packet." That new flavour? Red Leicester. "They smell so good," Libby May declared, revealing she made her purchase in Heron Foods. . "Who loves Red Leicester? I do. It is the best." As for the taste? "Better than the normal ones," Libby May continued. "They are so cheesy. Sorry yellow ones - Red Leicester has taken over. "They are so good - make sure you give them a go. Like I said earlier, I love that the whole bag is only 84 calories." Priced at £1.35 per grab bag - and £1.99 for a packet of six - other TikTok users confessed they were desperate to get their hands on some, too. "I love Red Leicester, I need to look out for these!" one person responded. A second said: "Bet they taste delicious, mmmm I have to try these." A third chimed in: "Omg I'm not joking the only thing my husband eats is cheese and this his favourite one, he's gonna cry. I'm so buying them." Whilst a fourth simply said: "OMG I NEED to try these." On Instagram, meanwhile, users reported spotting Red Leicester Quavers at local corner shops and in branches of Farm Foods. Announcing the product's launch on Instagram, account UK Food and Drink Wholesale said: "Savour the New Cheesy Flavour from Walkers! "Introducing Red Leicester Quavers – the iconic cheesy snack just got an upgrade. Bold, tangy, and irresistibly moreish, this new flavour is sure to be a hit with snack lovers everywhere." Quavers originally launched in the UK in 1968 and were made by Smith's Crisps in Lincoln until Walkers snapped them up in 1997. The brand's slogan at the time was: "You get a lovely lot of Quavers in a bag". Other flavours have emerged over the years that have since been discontinued, including salt and vinegar, bacon, cheese and onion and Chinese spicy beef. Two limited editions, tomato ketchup and sweet and sour flavours, have also graced shelves over the years.

Andy Murray to become new face of Walker's Shortbread
The three-time Grand Slam champion has been announced as the first brand ambassador for Walker's Shortbread. The company has posted pictures on Instagram of him holding a tartan tennis ball with the brand logo on it while out on a clay court. Murray said: "I am proudly Scottish, and partnering with Walker's, a brand that has been representing Scotland around the world for well over a century, felt like a great fit for me. READ MORE: The rarest and most stunning wild animals to see in Scotland 'I come from a small tight-knit community and when I look back at where I have come from, I am proud of what I've achieved, which is something I share with Walker's. "It's a real honour to be part of this next chapter for such a well-loved Scottish brand. 'I've been eating shortbread since I was a kid – my gran would make it all the time for us. We even celebrated my Wimbledon win with shortbread. "No matter where I am in the world, a piece of Walker's Shortbread always transports me back home.' The company said it is "incredibly excited to welcome Andy Murray to the Walkers' shortbread family", with bosses saying his journey from a small town in Scotland "mirrors our own". Murray grew up in Dunblane in Stirlingshire before becoming one of Scotland's most cherished sports stars. Walker's shortbread is baked in the Moray village of Aberlour, following a recipe developed by Joseph Walker in 1898. It is now one of Scotland's biggest exporters of food and employs more than 1200 people. A post on Instagram from Walker's said: "He's the perfect match to be our first-ever brand ambassador for Walker's, with our shared sense of national heritage, pride, and understated charm of two of Scotland's most famous exports. "Together, we're celebrating 'A wee bit of Scotland that's come a long way'." Nicky Walker, managing director at Walker's Shortbread, said: "We are incredibly excited to welcome Andy Murray as our very first brand ambassador. "We've always admired Andy's achievements, his dedication and his cautious charisma as well as his very obvious close relationship with his own family. "These are qualities that resonate deeply with our own values at Walker's Shortbread. We are genuinely honoured that Andy and his team have acknowledged Walker's as a suitable partner, and we are looking forward to this exciting new venture as we continue to promote 'Scotland at its Finest'.' The multi-year partnership will debut with a "bold, striking" black and white campaign, launching on June 30 to coincide with the start of Wimbledon. Shot with a "sleek, cinematic feel" the ad will showcase the shared qualities of both the brand and the tennis champion with a "humorous twist".
