I'd seen the adverts for Snackmasters, thought it looked like easy viewing and added it my list of things I'd get round to watching.

As it's on after the Bake Off, I'm already in TV watching mode, perfect.

Host Fred Sirieix challenges two top fancy-pants chefs to capture as closely as possible, the look, feel, taste and smell of some of Britain's top snacks. The first episode was KitKat, and was as informative as it was entertaining (KitKats are held together by other broken KitKats), with comedian Jayde Adams going behind the scenes at the factory.

But I'm a savoury girl, and this week's show was one I was intrigued about - pickled onion Monster Munch (although I'm in camp beef personally).

Up for the challenge this week were Matt Worswick, the Head Chef of Michelin-starred The Latymer in Surrey, and Tristan Welch - Chef Director of Cambridge's renowned Parker's Tavern. And boy were these two competitive in their quest to recreate this popular corn snack.

Getting the flavour right was the easy part, the texture and shape proved somewhat harder.

Tristan called on the knowledge of his engineer dad, and even bought a maize extruder machine (no, me neither) from China! Unbeknownst to him, it was a massive version of just this, that Walkers use to create the puffiness.

This got him the perfect texture but as a puffed corn ring or tube, was seriously missing the mark on shape.

It was the 'foot' that Matt focussed on, after testing out every version of corn he could. Who knew there were many?

After weeks of experimenting for both, the pair came head-to-head at the factory, pitting their efforts against each other, to be judged by factory bosses and assembly-line workers, the very people who make the real thing.

Now for KitKat, it was all about the snap, the Monster Munch crowd however, wanted the full package but ultimately, appearance and flavour won the day, and no one was more shocked than chef Matt.

Seeing these chefs put their heart, soul and food knowledge into these challenges is worth watching for alone, and you know they've loved every minute of it, although losing clearly stings.

Up next week, Burger King's Whopper, including the burger, bun, dressing and fries. In my Bake Off haze I'll want cake but within the hour, that'll change...
