As I use a lot of common salt each day for medicinal purposes, I recently decided to seek an alternate to add to my hot chips.
I purchased 200g of Mitani Classic Chicken Salt from Coles but found it unpalatable
The main part of the label describes the product as “Classic Chicken Salt” but when I tasted it all I could taste was spicy salt.
As there was no chicken taste, I decided to investigate further and found that further down the label it said that the product was “Vegetarian”. This made me wonder, how could it be both chicken and vegetarian?
A check of the ingredients revealed that the word chicken was not even mentioned.
As I pay $1.00kg for common salt, I think Mitani spicy salt at $3.45 for 200g (ie $17.25 kg) is very expensive.
I feel that the description of “Classic Chicken Salt” is very deceptive as the product does not actually contain any chicken.
I noted that the product was made in Australia and looked at their website (Mitani.com.au) in order to work out the best way to contact them.
I tried ringing their listed phone number 8285 0555 on several occasions but received an automated message stating that I entering a “Meeting Room” and to the wait for the “Host” to join the meeting.
I also sent them a message on 17.06.22 to their “Get In Touch” page requesting a refund. Having received no response after 10 days I decided to post this review.
Great flavoured salt for chips and pizzas. Something extra for our potato gems also. Great quality and okay price for the flavour. Easy to find with the spice section.
This product is awesome for chicken salt on hot chips. However, its not very long before it gets too hard and you cannot use any more. I’ve tried to get round this by putting in a glass salt shaker with some rice and it seems to have worked somewhat. Seems most chicken salts do this.
I used to buy a big hot chips with chicken salt and sit in the laundromat next door and eat while I washed. This takes me back. The taste is great and makes me remember the single days of no responsibilities.
