Walkers reveals first new Quavers flavour in three years will be in major supermarket within days
Tesco shoppers will be able to get their hands on the new Red Leicester Quaver flavour from the end of July.
Better yet, other major supermarkets are due to stock the delight from September, giving shoppers just a few weeks to wait.
Fans have already been going wild for the new flavour, which is already available to buy from Premier stores and Farm Foods.
In a post on Facebook one user said: 'What a time to be alive'.
While a second said: 'Bet these will be nice.'
A single-serve bag currently costs £1.35.
The tasty snack is also available as a grab bag and multipack.
The crisps join fan favourites such as Cheese, Prawn Cocktail, and BBQ Sauce.
And it is not the only new crisp flavour that Walkers has brought back.
Fans were delighted when Tomato Ketchup crisps were spotted on shelves after going missing for the last two years.
They were also accompanied by multipacks of the Worcester Sauce flavoured crisps - which were originally brought back exclusively to a single store in Worcester.
Elsewhere, Discos, owned by KP Snacks, is bringing back its beloved pickled onion flavour after it was last seen on shelves in 2005.
The tangy snack will be sold in convenience stores across the UK from August 27, giving punters just a matter of weeks before they're reunited with the flavour.
Customers can expect to pay £1.35 for a 70g bag when they land in shops.
It will be good news for fans of the savoury delight, many of whom have been begging the British manufacturer to bring the product back.
In 2022, one passionate customer went as far as launching a Change.org petition.
MORE RETURNING PRODUCTS
White chocolate Maltesers made a grand return to shelves earlier this year after a 10-year hiatus.
A 30g bag is currently available to buy in Morrisons for £1.05, while a larger 74g pouch costs £1.75.
Elsewhere, Opal Fruits, which were rebranded as Starburst in 1998, will now be available across major UK retailers.
Customers will be able to purchase the treats from Sainsbury's, Tesco, and Morrisons stores for shoppers to enjoy a taste of nostalgia.
Aldi also said it would bring back its "addictive" Specially Selected Prawn Cocktail Crisps.
Why are products axed or recipes changed?
ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders.
Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether.
They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers.
There are several reasons why this could be done.
For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes.
Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs.
They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable.
For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018.
It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version.
Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year.
Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks.
While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose.

Bank of England cuts interest rates to 4%, the lowest level in two years
A 'finely balanced' decision that will affect millions The Bank of England's narrow decision to reduce interest rates to the lowest level in two years will have a significant impact on many people, as this rate influences the amount banks will charge for mortgages and other loans. The nine-member Monetary Policy Committee made the decision amid competing concerns for the health of the British economy. On one hand, economic growth is slow and cuts to interests rates could possibly help this, given it would mean individuals and businesses may have more money to spend. But there are many worried about rising inflation - the increase in overall prices - remaining above the target of 2%. Food prices in particular are rising and causing some to worry inflation will worsen over the course of the year, forcing the Bank to pause cuts or even raise rates again Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey has suggested he expects these rises to be temporary and the overall trend for interest rates is down. But he has also acknowledged there is a lot of uncertainty in the UK economy - so the decision to lower rates is a "finely balanced" one. The government - and Chancellor Rachel Reeves - have welcomed the move and suggested its policies have brought stability to the economy. But the Conservatives say Labour's tax and borrowing policies have meant interest rates have come down slower than they needed to. We'll be ending our coverage of the UK's interest rates cuts here, thanks for joining us.

We each have different skills that we bring to making life on the boat safe and enjoyable, and it's wonderful to not be tied," Ms Webb said. After the Covid-19 pandemic, the couple moved out of their four-bedroom house and have lived on T-Shanti for five Webb stopped working earlier this year after selling his business, while his wife quit her job in accountancy."We left on May 18th and we've been on the move every single day," he told BBC Radio said most of their friends and family have supported their desire to retire at sea."My father was absolutely enchanted by the idea because he loves sailing. I learned to sail via my father," he explained."He died this year, aged 94, and the last lucid conversation was all about sailing – it was the best conversation I'd had with him for about a year." The couple have been to the Isle of Man and are currently in the Scottish islands. They plan to sail to Scandinavia and want to cross the Webb said long-distance sailing was "safer than driving a car every day"."When you're sailing, you need to think and you need to plan, and it helps keep us mentally alive," said Mr Webb."A lot of people can't imagine how the two of us, aged 70 and 65, can handle the boat by ourselves, and we do have an argument once a day on average, but I'm extremely lucky to find somebody who loves sailing so much," he couple said they are loving life and have no plans to return to Portishead.

Shepherd's Bush Market could be made into a community asset
A bid to list Shepherd's Bush Market as an asset of community value has been submitted by campaigners concerned about its future. Friends of Shepherd's Bush Market filed the application to "protect" the site a year after redevelopment plans were approved, said the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS).The group believes owner Yoo Capital wants to sell the west London site once work is complete and that an asset of community value (ACV) status would be a step towards community ownership and would safeguard the market's Yoo Capital said the site was not for sale and the scheme offered the market and traders "the best chance of future success". Yoo Capital's plans for the market, which runs between Goldhawk Road and Uxbridge Road, include new stalls, 40 council homes on adjoining Old Laundry Yard, and a nine-storey commercial and Fulham Council's planning committee approved the proposal in December raised concerns over support being promised to traders, leases they would be offered and increasing summer City Hall announced it would not call in the application and it was granted conditional final approval in August. 'Heart of our community' Group spokesman Jake Simms dubbed the market the "heart of our community".He said: "Yoo Capital's plans would destroy the market's social value - displacing traders, pricing out locals, and eroding the market's diversity - all for the sake of lining their investors pockets."The market needs investment, but this must be led by the community."If Hammersmith and Fulham Council grant the ACV, the community would be given priority for five years if the site is put up for sale. Shepherd's Bush Market Tenants' Association said its members were "fully supportive of the development by Yoo Capital".It said Friends of Shepherd's Bush Market was trying frustrate the process of moving forward. The market, it added, would cost millions of pounds to buy."Where would the Friends get that money?" a spokesperson Capital's managing director Andrew Thorpe said: "Our plans offer the market and its traders the best chance of future success and we look forward to starting works early next year."
