Crisps with Natalie Whittle
Today is an exciting day because we are tackling a topic that I consider extremely important, CRISPS, with food writer and journalist Natalie Whittle. We talk about the North American origins of the crisp, the excitement of discovering the crisps of other countries, iconic brands like Walkers and Tayto, and most importantly what the best flavour is – amongst many other things. Natalie’s book Crunch: An Ode to Crisps is published by Faber & Faber.
