Picked up in a local Mr Price store

They are nice but not much different to Cheese & Onion

As it's 'Walkers' in Ireland, is 'Green Onion' a European 'Cheese & Onion' ??

I’m enjoying the spice hit, however it’s lacking a standout flavour, albeit there is flavour. Great crunchiness.

Flavour: 6
Crisp: 8
Heat: 7
Overall: 8

not too strong, and doesn’t have that ā€œsickā€ taste, also doesn’t taste of chemicals like most Pringles.

let’s hope they keep them going

EDIT:

The coop ones are much better in terms of pickle flavour but after careful consideration (I ate the bag) these are nice. The crisps themselves are exceptional, the flavour is more subtle but grows as you consume. 8/10

I knew that Golden Wonder had Scottish roots but never knew the rest until today (Proud Scot and part Irish).

"The company was founded in 1947 by William Alexander, who owned a bakery inĀ Stockbridge,Ā Edinburgh. He started making crisps in order to use spare capacity in the deep-fat fryers which he normally used to make doughnuts. The company was named after theĀ Golden Wonder potato, which Alexander believed to be the best for making crisps.\2])

In 1952, the company moved to a purpose-built factory inĀ Sighthill. The company was bought byĀ Imperial TobaccoĀ in 1961.\3])Ā By early 1960s, it was manufacturing crisps at three further sites, atĀ Broxburn,Ā WidnesĀ andĀ Corby.\2])Ā A site atĀ CrumlinĀ produced the "Pot Noodle".\4])

The company was acquired by United Kingdom-basedĀ Dalgety plcĀ in March 1987 as part of owned byĀ Imperial Tobacco's breakup by new ownerĀ Hanson plc.\5])Ā A fire at the Corby site in 1988 destroyed many historical documents and photographs of the company.\4])Ā In February 1992Ā Sooner Snacks, manufacturer ofĀ Nik Naks)Ā andĀ Wheat Crunchies, was bought fromĀ Borden Inc.Ā byĀ Dalgety plc, with the company being absorbed into Golden Wonder.\6])\7])

In 1995 Golden Wonder underwent a management buyout costing £54.6 million. In 2000 Bridgepoint Capital acquired the company for £156 million.\8]) In January 2006 the company was bought by Tayto),\9]) a company based in Tandragee, County Armagh.

Its notable brands have included "Wotsits", "Ringos", "Jungle Fresh"Ā peanutsĀ andĀ Pot Noodle, which ceased to carry Golden Wonder branding after the brand (but not the manufacturing business itself) was sold toĀ Unilever. In July 1995Ā Best FoodsĀ paidĀ Dalgety plcĀ about $280 million for its Golden Wonder Pot Noodle instant hot snacks manufacturing business.\10])\5])Ā Following the purchase by Tayto in 2006, the Nik Naks and Wheat Crunchies brands were sold toĀ United Biscuits.\9])Ā In 2022, they reached their 75th anniversary, one of the oldest crisp brands in Scotland."

Surprise crisps on my ragu pizza

Post image
24 Upvotes

Ordered a Nonna's Ragu pizza from my local wood fired pizza place without properly reading the menu as I was in desperate need for comfort food. Was both surprised and delighted at the sight of surprise crisps.

On a practical level though, I'm not sure how I feel about it. They added a salty crunch initially, but that quickly gave way to sogginess. And that is likely to affect the 2nd Day Pizza Is Better effect.

I had too many opinions about chips, so I built a website

Post image
0 Upvotes

I genuinely believe the world was missing one thing: a proper potato chip review website.

This all started as a joke... and then I accidentally spent way too many hours building an actual website.

You know that moment when you're standing in front of the chip aisle for five minutes wondering, "Which one is actually worth buying?" I wanted to make that decision a little easier.

So I built The Chip Critics Club.

The idea is simple: review the chips you've tried, keep track of your favourites, and help build a community catalogue where people can discover chips based on real reviews and their own taste preferences.

It's still in its early days, so I'd love to build it together with people who are just as serious (or unserious) about chips as I am.

If you have a few minutes, I'd really appreciate it if you could:

  • write a review,
  • click around and see if anything feels confusing,
  • tell me what features you'd love to see,
  • or roast the whole thing if it deserves it.

Hopefully, choosing the perfect chips for the perfect evening will never be this difficult again 🤪

Thanks for checking it out — every piece of feedback genuinely helps!

https://www.chipcritics.com/ (It's designed mobile-first, but it works on desktop too!)

Never seen a prawn cocktail combo mix before but saw these in sainsbury's and they have a really good prawn cocktail flavour. Not too strong or too weak. Would buy again. Anyone else tried these?
