Appearance, packaging and more
Here we have a giant purple bag with an image of a monsters claw, it also states that you get 10 packs of crisps inside the bag, consisting of 3x roast beef, 4x pickled onion and 3x flamin hot.
Each pack of Monster Claws is individually coloured with the roast beef pack having a yellow colour identical to that of a pack of roast beef Monster Munch, Pickled Onion has a dark purple colour pack and flamin hot has a dark red colour pack.
Product and Taste Test
For this part of the review I will review each flavour separately
Roast Beef
The flavour of the roast beef here is noticeable, obviously the taste is not the same as a Sunday roast beef dinner, but that is the same for Monster Munch in my opinion, so the flavour is noticeable but Monster Munch has a slightly stronger flavour, Monster Munch also melts in the mouth slightly easier, which is the same for all flavours, so between the two brands there is not much difference
Pickled Onion
These have a nice pickled onion flavour, I would say it is in between not too weak and not too overpowering so the flavour is noticeable and strong enough that make these crisps great tasting
Flamin Hot
The spiciness of these will vary depending on what you see as too spicy, if I were to rate these between 1 to 5 where 1 would be a korma and a 5 would be a vindaloo I would give these a 2, so they are far from a weak flavour crisp but they are also not too spicy.
As mentioned in the roast beef part of the review Monster Munch melt in the mouth slightly easier compared to Monster Claws, Monster Munch roast beef flavour also has a slightly stronger taste than the Monster Claws roast beef, these have the same amount of crunch and bite to them you would expect from Monster Munch.
Verdict
You can munch on these just as easily as you can with Monster Munch and there is not too much difference in flavour, Monster Munch is slightly stronger with a couple of flavours and that is where the comparisons end, as for price comparison you get more for your money with Monster Claws, taste wise these taste almost just as great as Monster Munch do and you save money so these get a silver star and I recommend trying these if you have not already
Rating:
