Original American Chip Spice Red Salt Shaker with Paprika by American Chip Spice

Product Information

Hull KR is delighted to announce a new partnership for the 2023 season with the iconic and local favourite brand, American Chip Spice.

Owned by Lee Gleeson and Wayne Graves, the same pairing who own the nearby Nanouk on Lowgate, it is hoped that Calla will provide a playful but refined experience for those drinking in Whitefriargate. Its botanical theme, paired with a fresh coat of olive paint, has made the building look striking from the surrounding street. New stats show Hull's unbreakable bond with the paprika, tomato and salt-flavoured tubs of joy is not as solid as once thought. Rod and Brenda Wilson started their business in 1979, selling blends of herbs and spices to local butchers and food service industries in Hull. Inspired by the flavours they’d experienced on a trip to the USA.Edward Wilson, co-founder of Wilson’s Seasonings, said: “Naturally we are delighted that more people will be able to buy it on the shelves at Asda stores across Yorkshire and beyond – who knows, next stop the rest of the UK.”

We put a shout-out in the Hull Traffic and Travel Facebook group to find out what people who live in the city think are the most important things to know. While that might not be entirely true, the polling and data analytics giants YouGov have waded in on the debate in a bid to settle the argument once and for all.However, of all the counties ranked, Hull and the East Riding did still have the highest percentage of people who would plump for chip spice - 36 per cent. It's one of the most controversial topics that provides the basis for debate across the land - just which topping do you have on your chips?
