People are only just realising what Monster Munch shapes actually are

A crisp fan is questioning everything they know after being told Monster Munch is actually a different shape than they originally thought. Monster Munch, the corn snack known for its distinctive shape and delicious flavours, including Pickled Onion and Roast Beef, is a classic.

But there's long been a debate among snack lovers as to what the actual shape of it is. Some people might think it's very obvious, but the fact is, not everyone agrees. Some people believe Walkers' Monster Munches are shaped like feet, while others think it's a monster with a head, legs and arms.

One Monster Munch fan has come to the realisation they may be a different shape than they originally thought. Filming herself holding up a Monster Much to show the camera, TikTok content creator Tiffany wrote: "POV [point of view] you spent your whole childhood thinking Monster Munch where giant feet, to be told they're actual monsters."

Originally holding it in a way which made it look like a foot with four toes, she simply flipped it upside down - and you can clearly see the big head with two arms and two legs. Food content creator @FoodWithASB also saw a similar video from someone else, and simply asked: "What is going on?"

He explained that he used to love Monster Munch "so much as a kid", particularly the Pickled Onion flavour. He added: "If you've eaten a Monster Munch before you'll know that you always ate them this way up [with the toes pointing up], it looks like a foot or a claw or something. [...]

"Wrong. We were all wrong. It turns out if you turn them upside down they are just a full-on monster. It actually makes so much sense. I don't know why I've never seen that before."

This created a huge debate in the comment section, as many had no idea they could be seen as monsters. Others refused to believe it. "They're claws," said one person. Another added: "I refused to believe that my childhood has been ruined."

"I thought they were claws," said a third. "I know that but still refuse to believe it," added another.

Luckily, Walkers previously put an end to the debate about whether the iconic Monster Munch is the shape of a claw with four fingers, or a monster with two arms and legs. They actually put it to the fans to have a decisive say on the official shape with a poll on social media in 2020.

More than 60,000 people had their say, with the 'Claw' shape emerging as the winner. Will Robinson at Walkers Snacks said: "Claw or Monster is a debate that has continued to divide British opinion as much as whether or not you put jam or cream on your scone first, or whether that famous dress was gold or blue.

"Therefore we felt it was only right to settle the debate once and for all, through launching our ‘Monster’ and ‘Claw’ shaped packs and asking the fans to decide – and now they have spoken.

"So moving forwards it won’t be open to debate – they are officially ‘claw’ shaped forever more. Or until our innovation team gets restless, at least."
