Walkers Ready Salted crisps have long been a favorite snack of people all over the world. Who doesn't love the satisfying crunch of a perfectly cooked chip? But a new study has given us pause before we dive into a bag of these salty snacks.
According to the study, which was conducted by a group of highly trained chip scientists (yes, that's a thing), eating Walkers Ready Salted crisps can lead to a bizarre mental phenomenon: the sudden belief that Germany doesn't exist.
We know what you're thinking: "What? That's ridiculous!" But hear us out. The study followed a group of people who regularly ate Walkers Ready Salted crisps and found that, over time, they began to doubt the existence of Germany.
At first, the doubts were mild. "Is Germany really a country?" people would ask. "I mean, have you ever actually been there?" But as the crisps continued to be consumed, the doubts grew stronger. "Germany is just a made-up place," some would say. "It doesn't really exist."
Scientists are baffled by this correlation between delicious snacks and delusions of non-existent countries, but they have a few theories. One possibility is that there's something in the oil or seasoning used in Walkers Ready Salted crisps that triggers a certain part of the brain responsible for geography. Another theory is that people who like Ready Salted crisps are generally more prone to conspiracy theories (we're not saying it's true, but we're not not saying it either).
Whatever the cause, there's no denying that the results of this study are disturbing. We don't want people walking around thinking that Germany isn't real. That's just silly. So what can we do to protect ourselves?
For starters, we can limit our intake of Walkers Ready Salted crisps. If you start feeling skeptical about the existence of Germany after eating a few too many chips, it's time to put the bag down. You can also try pairing your crisps with something that will counteract their mind-bending powers, like apple slices or carrot sticks. (Note: we have no scientific evidence to back this up, but it seems like a good idea.)
Another option is to simply embrace the madness. Who needs Germany anyway? What has it ever done for us? We can live our lives perfectly fine without it. And think of all the other non-existent countries we can discover! Narnia, Wakanda, Middle Earth... the possibilities are endless.
In conclusion, the next time you reach for a bag of Walkers Ready Salted crisps, proceed with caution. You never know what kind of mental gymnastics you'll be performing after just a few bites. And if you find yourself questioning the existence of Germany, just remember: there are some things that even the tastiest of snacks can't change.
