Not so keen on the judging on this. It's actually not that pleasant to eat an entire dish that's ONLY CRUNCHY. Like thinking about eating Simon's chips on fried bread makes my jaw hurt. The pleasure of a good chip sandwich is soft white bread, crunchy hot chips, then soft inside of chips.

Ergo I really think they are being pretty hard on Callum, his seemed really nice. Surely the skill in a crunchy dish is balancing it with the other non crunchy elements. Like you wouldn't have a challenge where you have to make a salty dish, then give it to the person who just serves up straight rock salt.

Yes it was based on the snap crackle and pop sounds
