Double post but I found some of these in a shop on the way back from a gig tonight, they're actually pretty hot for something from Walkers and the heat sure builds up. Will eat again.

Had these last night. Very hot! Not unbearable though, I couldn't stop eating them even with the heat. Got a packet of the Wotsits Crunchy ones to go at next.

M&S Collection Beef Wellington Crisps | Ocado

Busted out these when I was watching AEW Dynamite. Gave up on them after four crisps because they were absolutely foul. Two hours later and they've still left an aftertaste. Even worse than the Jericho vs Hook match. 2/10.

My tolerance for heat has been way down since Covid, but those extra flamin' hot Wotsits almost did me in. Couldn't get through the whole packet, and I'm going to assume they were a contributing factor in my guts being a right state later than evening.

My wife took one bite of an Extra Flamin' Hot Wotsit Crunchy and it blew her head off, leaving me with a free run at the whole bag. I loved them, better than the Doritos ones.

I've put on a bit of weight recently and I'm really not happy about it, so I've cut back on my crisp intake.

In actual fact I really haven't, I'm just trying to burn it all off a bit more.

Doritos Extra Flaming Hot

As others have said, excellent. I've only tried the Doritos, but I'm sure the others are just as nice. Tangy, and flavourful without just being the spice which is often so overwhelming. 8/10

Fresh Chrumky Kukuricne Kecup (apparently)

Slovakian, very wheat, not too nice but good to try of course. 5/10

Kubeti Fun Snack

Glorious Bulgarian bacon croutons. Only not a 10 as they went a tiny bit stale and soft, otherwise perfect. 9/10

Walkers Sensations Crushed Sea Salt & Black Peppercorn

These were fantastic. Salty enough but not too much, and vastly superior to the Kettle Chips of similar flavour. Will definitely buy again. 9/10 (Also had the new Mature Cheddar and Chilli Chutney ones which were really nice too.

Seabrook Loaded Fire Eaters Trinidad Scorpion Chilli 

Lads, these do not fuck around. When you're actually eating them they're fine, but once you stop the aftertaste is intense. Nice enough, but you've been warned. 8/10

Also tried Hot & Spicy Pringles which is a new flavour for me I think. Decent but no different to any other spicy flavour they've ever done.

I eat Chilli Heatwave Doritos like they are going out of fashion, so I tried the Extra Flamin' Hot ones. Definitely worth trying - I'm not sure I liked the flavour as much as Chilli Heatwave, but they do pack a reasonable punch.

Am I imagining it or is the crisp itself higher quality than the Chilli Heatwave ones? I found that they have a more pleasing crunch and had all maintained their structural integrity: no rogue broken bits lying at the bottom of the bag!

The Coop have a nice flavour in at the moment - all super sauced or something. Got a nice 'bit of everything' going on flavourwise and although it'll never win any awards for best crisps or top flavours etc, it's a nice change to bog standard flavours and worth a try.

I've tried the MAX and Wotsits extra hot variants but neither are as nice as the Doritos, plus the Wotsits aren't proper ones and are the NikNak rip offs, are they becoming the standard now??

I saw these yesterday and my 11yo was furiously looking for what flavour they were on the packet and just standing there going "sauce isn't a flavour Coop!"

I've noticed Wotsits are on a steep decline. Glad I'm not the only one.
