Space Raiders Pickled Onion Potato Shapes (Iceland) By @Cinabar

Space Raiders Pickled Onion Potato Shapes


I saw a picture of this bag of Space Raiders Pickled Onion Potato Shapes shared with me on Twitter and I have to admit to spending several minutes trying to work out why it was supposed to be interesting. Space Raiders crisps have been around for a long time, and although I haven’t bought any in a while their existence didn’t surprise me. I had miss seen the pack and thought it was just a multipack of the regular crisps. These Space Raiders Pickled Onion Potato Shapes aren’t crisps these are actually more of a chips style product that you bake, I ordered a bag!

The pack is really very similar to the multipack packaging, but I did manage to put them in the freezer for storage. The potato shapes simply bake, and look pretty smart when I poured some onto the baking tray. Once cooked they kept their shape and still looked neat. The coating was very lightly crispy and the filing was soft fluffy potato, the problem was the flavour. There was no wow factor just the mildest mild hint of onion, really not that exciting. These Space Raiders Pickled Onion Potato Shapes are a nice idea, fun shapes but they were noncommittal on the whole pickled onion flavour opting for a child friendly mildness that missed the point. I wanted more zing.
