Snack of the month - cola pop...corn?

I tried this snack last month, before Christmas. But it's still on sale in B&M if you want to try a bag yourself.


There is a trend now for stretching confectionery brands across other products to take advantage of brand recognition and customer loyalty. Chupa Chups isn't a brand I'd have thought would have a high amount of either but the manufacturer obviously thought differently. 

The popcorn had a decent crunch with the cola flavouring adding a thin sugary coating to it. 



It tasted like cola bottle sweets rather than a fizzy syrupy drink. I thought it had quite a pleasant taste although the high sugar content means I probably won't buy it again.

"I think you're going to be disappointed..."
