Headliner - Oreos versus Delta Cream (Arnotts)

We find out in under 7 minutes and 45 seconds.

 

Also in this episode

• Ridiculous chips from Dave in a blind test (one from Aldi, one from Thins)
• The Freckle Redemption. Freckles in a block after their disasterous compound chocolate choice for the original. Can the 'freckle block' return the household name to a mantle of appreciation.

 

BTW - Something for a future episode, a lady who's done a PhD on lollies.

The subtle local hero versus Big Corn Chip from the US.

We compare a handful of classic flavours from both to get a read on points of difference, overall taste and nachos/nach-os satisfaction.

Hat tip to Tom, friend of the show, for the suggestion and insight that set up the ep.

Woolworths brand was the chip winner of the previous challenge.

However! In an oversight that shocked fans of a certain legacy brand, we feel that Samboy's chicken flavour deserved a turn on the roundabout. 

 

Please Discuss

On Kitty's recommendation, Poppables from Smiths. You might need four at a time.
