Idk if anyone here knows of scampi fries, but if not, I would like to introduce you all to the beauty and grace that is "smiths scampi flavour fries". Insanely salty and well coated these crisps are genuinely delicious. Smiths are the goat.
This could be one of my favourite crisps ever, could possibly dethrone lays barbecue ribs
I’m hoping these don’t ever go away
Slightly spicy. Good substantial crunch. Quality snack.
Is there anyone out there that is “meh” about S&V. I’ve found people either love them or hate them. For me personally the more vinegary a salt and vinegar crisp the better but I don’t think I’ve met someone who is on the fence about them.
At £1.25 for 150g (nectar price, usual price I believe is £1.50), these posh crispsare smack between budget friendly lidl crisps, and more premium high end snacks such as space raiders, but how do they taste?
The pack boasts aromatic onion and garlic, a strange thing to bring up with a pack of crisps that are meant to taste of cheese and pickled jalapeño, but what do I know? Anyway, it's about what's in the bag, not on it!
I'll get to the point with these, they don't taste like Monterey jack and pickled jalapeño, however, they are a very tasty, very well balanced crisp. The crisps themselves are pretty much identical to kettle brand chips, and the flavouring is very pleasantly vinegary, there's a slight creamyness, not really very cheesy, but it does have that lactic tang, the vinegar isn't anything like the acetic assault you get from co op brand crisps, but it's nice nonetheless, not a one dimensional vinegar, there's a bit of apple cider kind of funk to it. Can't really taste that aromatic onion and garlic, but there is a slight whisper of cumin there, and just the right amount of salt and sweetness to let the vinegar shine.
When I saw the name on the bag, I was hoping for a posh version of max jalapeño and cheese, and in that, they have failed, but still, they are very nice crisps on their own right, one of the better limited editions that the supermarkets have on offer this summer, fully deserving of an 8 out of 10, could even have been a little higher if the flavour on the bag wasn't so misleading! Fully recommended!
Anyone a fan of Kofta id definitely recommend these!
Found in my local Chinese supermarket. And no, I didn’t.
I will definitely be keeping any eye out for them in future
I feel that generally, the calibre of crisp available at my local Polish food shoo is excellent. These, however,go a step further. It's a sort of smoked mountain cheese (which it actually contains, not just some cheese powder and smoke flavour).
I’m guessing they are tomato and onion and I’m so glad they don’t sell these at home as I’d be the size of house.
Admittedly, I'm not usually a fan of pringles even at the best of times, but I am a sucker for a crossover, so I had to try them out of curiosity.
Not much of a bacon or cheese flavour in this tube of "savoury snacks", not much in the way of beef or burger either, instead, it tastes like an actual burger King restaurant, specifically about 20 minutes before closing time, when the distinctive burger King aroma still lingers in the air, but it's a little bit dull and muted as they bring the cleaning products out. It's almost impressive how something with so many ingredients and flavour enhancers can taste so bland.
Thankfully I had a feeling these would be awful and planned ahead, buying myself a backup pack of takis blue heat, which is a modern marvel, top tier snack, so the night is not a complete write off!
I'm a hardened salt n vinegar girl, but I can only manage half a packet of these at a time, which to me means they're a major winner!
Found them to be very strong, mouth hurty and delicious. Off to order more.
I know they aren't crisps as such but these have embodied what McCoys used to be, a perfect snack for a pint in the pub, anyone else tried them?
Got them at a small supermarket. They do contain milk though, if you need to avoid that.
Fit for the bin. Lacking any flavour and a horrible aftertaste from the crisp. Poundland if anyone is mad enough to buy them. Jim Bowen will be turning in his grave. The crisps that taste lit don’t taste like shit!
