No one has ever brought Savoury Shapes to a party and been invited back. True story. Sorry, but plain salt is not a flavour.
7. Savoury
Arnott’s Shapes ranked from best to Savoury
Today, we answer the age-old question that has plagued humankind since the beginning of time: what Shapes flavour reigns supreme? We ask you to kindly educate yourself on the one true ranking below.
6. Nacho Cheese
It didn’t work on corn chips, nor does it work here. Stop trying to make Nacho Cheese happen. It’s not going to happen.
5. Cheese & Bacon
It’s hard to go wrong with cheese and bacon, yet somehow they’ve managed it. These uninspired quadrilaterals taste overwhelmingly of fake meat flavouring. That’s right, those little pink specks are not fooling anyone.
4. Cheddar
A poor man’s cheese plate. They may be a bit depressing on their own but they instantly improve when paired with cabanossi or spring onion dip.
3. Barbecue
Most people are happy to go along with Barbecue even though they’re significantly less seasoned than they used to be. If you can’t pour the leftover dust down your gullet at the end, then what is the point even?
Fresh ideas
Corn
This summer, pick Australian grown corn with grassy green husks for a fresh addition to your BBQ.
2. Pizza
Now this is flavour you can see. Topped with cheesy nuggets and Italian herbs and spices (OK, just parsley then), these loaded polygons are tastier than some actual pizza slices. My only concern is that they’ve doubled up on the hexagon shape, are we really in reruns already?
1. Chicken Crimpy
Now to every mathematician’s favourite shape, the crimpy. This ridged biscuit is an absolute cracker, think butter cookies coated in chicken noodle seasoning. These are the kind of Shapes that you would steal from your own kids’ lunchbox.
