Walkers are the ones in the wrong. They probably copyrighted it.

"Walkers are the ones in the wrong. They probably copyrighted it. "

Actually I think it's sadly the case that Walkers did it first and they're technically "right" if there needed to be an answer.

"Walkers actually has the pedigree for cheese and onion, introducing the flavour in 1954, a full eight years before Golden Wonder followed suit in 1962. Despite this, the public view runs counter to the Walkers colour scheme, with 44% saying the cheese and onion colour should be green, whilst 30% say it should be blue. A further 10% say it should be yellow, which some of the gourmet crisp companies currently use (and, admittedly, makes thematically more sense when you think about it)."

It's probably a generational thing - when I was growing up and before Walkers had conquered the crisp world - Salt & Vinegar was always blue and Cheese & Onion was green

I would say it's the correct one traditionally. Cheese and onion goes in green bag

I remember when walkers did that originally, was part of a joke/marketing campaign as they did it with lots of flavours by mixing up the colours. most returned to normal but salt & vinegar and cheese & onion stuck as opposites to the original.

now they are the only ones with green for s&v & blue for c&o.

probably is copyrighted/patented now though.

I really think cheese crisps should be yellow but i seem to recall walkers used to be the other way but i think it was a sales ploy.

Exactly that Sappster - simple always works best.

Also

Red = Ready Salted

Orangey Yellow = Chicken

Brown = Beef

Pink = Prawn Cocktail

No Vicky ! No !

Cheese and Onion belong in a green bag.

Onion = Veg = Green.

Crisps have been that way all my life UNTIL ......

Stupid Walkers.

Cheese and Onion should NOT be in a blue bag..... Unless we are in Denmark and something tastes off.

No

Looking at the posts in the thread to date, it seems the majority favour C&O in a blue bag.

If I had my way anybody that disagrees can face upto 6 months having there "ideas re-aligned" at her majesty's pleasure in an unheated stone hut on Benbecula.

So job done , C&O in a blue bag

yes, it did, 90's early 00's. I remember because I HATE cheese & onion , which was normally in the green packet even for walkers, I spat them all over the place.
