Ko tēhea momo maramara rīwai te momo pai ki a koe? Kua whakamātau rānei koe i ngā maramara tote me te winika e tengatenga ai tō arero? Nā, i kai tētahi tangata i ngā maramara tote me te winika a Copper Kettle, ā, nā te kaha rawa o te tāwara i kore ai rātou e rongo i ētahi atu kai mō tētahi wā.
I kite ētahi Kaitirotiro Maramara o Consumer NZ i tēnei pānuitanga, ā, nā konā i whakatau ai rātou kia kōkiritia tētahi kaupapa e kitea ai ngā momo maramara tote me te winika pai katoa i ngā toa hokomaha.
Hei tā tētahi Kaitirotiro Maramara, hei tā Vanessa Pratley, i te whakawātia ngā maramara e ai ki: “te tuari hāngai o te tāwara” me te “āhua o te pakepakē”. E waru ngā momo maramara i whakawātia i te whakataetae nei.
Ko ngā kitenga: Ko te “mākihakiha” te whakawākanga o ngā maramara a Countdown, o ngā maramara a Pams anō hoki. He pēnei i te moe te wana!
Ko ngā maramara pai katoa ko te momo Snacka Changi me te momo Kettle, ā, i pēnei ai nā te kaha o te tāwara me te pakepakē. Kāore hoki ngā maramara Proper Crisps e āhua nui nei te utu i tino eke.
Ehara! Ehara! Kāore pea tō maramara e toa i tētahi whakataetae āraiwhatu. Nō reira, kia hoki rā anō koe ki te hoko i tō kai kakukaku, me mahara, kia kaua e whāia noatia ngā whakatairanga – kei te tāwara me te pakepakē kē te painga!

Chip Taste Challenge
What type of chips do you like? Have you tasted salt and vinegar chips that make your tongue tingle? Well, one salt and vinegar chip eater ate Copper Kettle chips, and the flavour was so powerful, they couldn’t taste any other food for a while.
Chip Investigators at Consumer NZ heard of this story, so, they decided to go on a mission, to find out what is the best salt and vinegar chip brands in the supermarkets.
Vanessa Pratley, a Chip Investigator, said they were judging the chips on: “even distribution of flavour” and the “crunch factor.” Eight chip contenders faced the taste challenge.
The findings: Countdown and Pams brand of chips got a “bland” report card. They were as exciting as a nap!
The best chip included Snacka Changi Vinegar and Salt and Kettle Chip Company Sea Salt and Vinegar for the strongest flavour and best crunch. Even the pricier Proper Crisps got a thumbs down for being average.
Surprise, surprise! Your go-to chip might not win in a blindfolded taste test. So, next time you grab your crunchy snack, remember, it’s not just about the brand—it’s about the flavour and crunch factor!
