I wasn’t sure what to expect with the popcorn version of Kit Kat Chunky. Considering that Kit Kat Chunky’s cookie dough variety basically doesn’t taste like cookie dough at all, I sort of figured that this would be more of the same.
I was extremely wrong. Popcorn Kit Kat Chunky pretty much hits you in the face with popcorn flavour.
My assumption was that the white stuff on top of the wafer would be some kind of popcorn-flavoured paste, but there are actual bits of popcorn in there, and their flavour is surprisingly strong. It’s mildly buttery, slightly salty, and actually compliments the toasty wafers and the sweet chocolate surprisingly well. The chunks are also large enough to add a bit of their own texture on top of the crispiness of the wafers.
It’s more of a fun novelty than anything else, but if you’re intrigued by the combination of Kit Kat + popcorn, you’ll probably be pleasantly surprised.
