Back to posting about the ‘posh wanky’ crisps I buy, as my wife said:

shopping?q=tbn:ANd9GcQuGBbBWMjkTdSK5gnm3
I picked these up in TK Maxx, and they’re one of the worst things I’ve eaten in quite some time. They have a bit of a smoked taste to them if that’s your kinda thing, but I thought they were horrible. A salted crisp seemed like a safe bet to me, but I could only eat two of these before throwing the rest in the bin. They’re impressively bad, so credit to Kauboi for making something so unpleasant with such a basic flavour.

Speaking of posh wanky crisps... picked these up in the poshest department store in Norfolk's poshest town (yeah I know,  Bobby Heenan nicest guy in prison gag) on Saturday:

The duck ones are pretty nice and taste like what they purport to. The boar ones are... interesting. Not unpleasant flavour, but unusual and they absolutely reek.

They sell these at our local farm shop along with a grouse flavour and a Smoked Pheasant flavour. I’ve never tried them though, there’s something about the flavours that put me off and I’ve no idea why. Fuck me, I ate those Doritos gingerbread crisps and cucumber flavoured crisps in the past. No idea why game is the line I can’t cross.

Don’t know what you paid for them, but they had them in Home Bargains in Levenshulme for a quid a bag.  Tried the Boar ones and they tasted very much like the Hedgehog flavour crisps they had in the early 80’s

I'm with you brother, it just doesn't sound right does it? Like they're trying too hard.

Yeah they had those too - toyed with getting the lot but decided to stick to just two, because...

More than a quid, I'll tell you that much. Don't get much in Holt for a quid.

(PS the gingerbread Doritos were fab and I'll die on that vaguely triangular hill)

I got my step-dad a Serious Pig box two Christmasses on the bounce and he loved them. You get a choice of beers, a glass, snacking pickles, some meat sticks and packets of these. Genuinely great value.

The best way to describe the snacking cheese bites is that they taste like the hard cheese you don't immediately clean off from a toastie maker, but crunchier. They are very flavourful. 

My husband got some of these from the garden centre on the weekend, I have really enjoyed them. Crunchy cheese. It's odd because it's cold on the tongue but very full of flavour, and  very strong cheese flavour without being overly cheesy.

Yeah they're great, I think they stopped all those flaming hot gimmicks though. Seemed like they were trying to compete with Takis which the youts were all over, don't even see them around now m

The veg ones were the only ones they do worth buying. That being said I haven’t bought them in years and won’t miss them.

I love those veg crisps, especially the beetroot ones.

They are pricey, though.
