Many people have said it is wrong but that hasn’t stopped Irish food company Tayto from making a cheese and onion flavoured chocolate bar.
The firm has already sold out of the 100,000 bars it initially produced in response to requests from people on social networks.
Tayto boss Eamon Eastwood admitted customers had reacted strongly to the snack, which has a flavour normally associated with crisps.
‘I couldn’t believe the reaction,’ he said.
‘It went off the Richter scale with almost half a million impressions.’
The chief executive described the bar as ‘crunchy chocolate and then a lingering taste of cheese of onion’.
Unsurprisingly the treat has received a mixed response.
@bfdetiger wrote on Twitter: ‘Just had my first taste of the Tayto (cheese and onion crisp) Chocolate Bar, very nice actually :)’
Others on the social network were less enthusiastic.
@ErnieNinja added: ‘In Ireland they made a chocolate bar cheese and onion flavoured! I just lost my appetite.’
How about Garlic flavored ice cream? (it’s good!)
I haven’t tried them together. It’s possible I’d like them: it appears some people have.
eeeeeyukaaaaaahuuurllll
