Tufty' crisps is nut a cruel joke

FANS will be going nuts for the latest crisp flavour — Cajun squirrel.
It may sound more like a bushtucker trial for I’m a Celebrity — but Walkers are launching the Tufty flavour tomorrow.
The new snack was picked by a panel of judges, including wacky celeb chef Heston Blumenthal, in Walkers’ Do Us A Flavour challenge.
Crisp lover Martyn Wright, 26, of Hednesford, near Birmingham, came up with the squirrel idea.
He said: “I wanted something unique.” Another five new flavours will be unveiled today.
Squirrel-eating died out in Britain in the 1800s, but toffs’ dinner parties have put it back on the menu.
Walkers insist no real Tufties were hurt in the making of the vegetarian crisps.
