I was beginning to think this one was a joke as everywhere that I went had the other Big Night In Flavours ( BBQ Meatlovers Pizza and Southern Fried Chicken for the record) but sh1t on me, I couldn’t find the Garlic Bread ones. What the hell is happening out there?
All of the flavours sounded decent enough, but the Garlic Bread had been recommended to me specifically and I have to agree, it did sound the most exciting. I am pretty sure I have come across garlic flavoured chips of one form or another, but the idea of a potato chip that tasted of bread was intriguing to me. Carb on Carb…
Finally my contacts came through and I managed to source a bag of these weird sounding chips. Finally I was ready for a Big Night In.
I changed into my finest silk pajamas and slipped on my velvet smoking jacket, poured me a glass a Hennessy and turned the lights all the way down so that flickering of the recently lit fireplace was the only illumination. Stretching out on the bear skin rug, I opened the packet and inhaled the contained aromas deeply. Smelt of potato chips and garlic.
Slowly and lovingly placing one of these into my carb hole, I bit down slowly and lovingly and slowly and lovingly ground the chip into a paste before slowly and lovingly swallowing it.
It was most definitely a potato chip that tasted predominantly of garlic and herbs with a mild hint of butter. I couldn’t taste bread flavour at all. It wasn’t so much garlic bread flavour as the sh1t that one puts on garlic bread flavour, but I suppose the team at Bluebird that came up with the name didn’t think that “Bluebird – Big Night In – The Sh1t That One Puts on Garlic Bread” would sell as well.
Normally, I complain when there isn’t enough flavour on chips, but this sh1t was rich and the more subtle direction that Bluebird took with this flavour was welcome as it became more sickening as I worked my way through the bag.
All in all a fair tribute to garlic bread
