Mr Tayto has been busy in the kitchen again and is back with another limited edition flavour. This one is here just in time to mark the most flavoursome and the most wonderful time of year - Christmas!
We all know that Christmas dinners are the stuff(ing) of legend, so I didn't have to look far for inspiration! The turkey, the stuffing, and all those potatoes (mashed, roasted AND croquettes <3) you can't beat it! I hope you all enjoy my festive flavour - Merry Crispmas! - Mr Tayto
Tayto Turkey & Stuffing is only here for Christmas so pick up a packet while you can!...

NEW Tayto Muchos arrived in February this year! These crispy tortilla snacks are available in three mouth-watering Mexican inspired flavours – Smokey Chilli Chicken, Nacho Cheese and Sour Cream and Onion.
The launch was supported with a full Above the Line campaign in March. On TV, we saw Mr Tayto and his Señorita meeting in Coppers before heading back to her place where they made Muchos all night long! The TV ad was accompanied by an outdoor campaign with a mix of 48 and 6 sheets and PR. In stores, the launch was executed with a range of point of sale materials and exclusive retailer giveaways which included the chance to win a trip to Mexico! Viva Los Muchos!
