Urban Stix Thai Sweet Chilli 30g
You know that moment when a cold one lands and you need something crunchy in your other hand? This is it. Urban Stix Thai Sweet Chilli are airy little corn sticks dusted in a sweet-then-spicy seasoning that hits sugar first, then a gentle chilli warmth on the back end. Pure no-fuss munching, made right here in Nairobi. We'll have a pack at your door before the next round's poured.
First thing you notice is the crunch. These are extruded maize sticks, so they're light and crisp rather than dense, and they shatter cleanly. The seasoning leads with sweetness, then a savoury, slightly oniony-garlicky umami kicks in from soy and spices, and a soft chilli heat rounds it off. It's the Thai sweet-chilli idea in snack form: sweet, a touch salty, just enough spice to keep you reaching back into the bag. Easy heat, nothing that'll have you gasping.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
These come from Norda Industries, the Nairobi snack company behind the Urban Bites name. Urban Stix launched in 2016 and quickly became a local favourite, made from maize that gets extruded into sticks, fried, then dusted with the flavour. Nice touch: the pack is decorated with the Nairobi city skyline, so it's proudly, unmistakably Kenyan.
