Obviously one of the royal family of crisps. But for the last few weeks, can't find them anywhere. They all seem to be a Dash of Salt. Where have they all gone? My lunchtime sarnie isn't the same without them...

I can recommend NikNaks or Monster Munch for your sandwiches to get you through this drought.

Have resorted to S&V Squares for now. But appreciate the suggestions.

My fallback is S&V Discos. Ridiculously salty and vinegary.

I'm never going back after converting to Aldi 'Sea salt and Chardonnay vinegar' crisps. It's like a Lamborghini compared to a push-bike and they do come in multi-packs of six (unless you indulge in the big bag with a friend!)

With the cost of a 6 pack of Walkers hitting £2.20 when you could get them for £1.00/£1.20 just over a year ago, I've been looking elsewhere, especially as the quality of the Walkers seem to have been going south for a while now.

Lidl six packs are good. SnV very salty and vinegary.

Were 89p for ages but recently gone over the quid.

Maybe a special promotion but I did pick up some 6 packs of Walker's baked crisps the other day for £1.65.

Much nicer than their now inferior quality 'normal' crisps.

You need the CoOp own brand salt and chardonnay vinegar crisps. They only come in a big pack, but they are the best s&v crisps anywhere. Nothing else can hold a candle to them.
They are only 62% potato. The rest is salty vinegary goodness!
I pray every day that they don’t change the recipe because nanny state. (Ref the fizzy drinks tasting of artificial sweetener thread).

On side note, I love S&V hula hoops. The single flavour multi packs only ever seem to be available in Waitrose. Does anyone know if they have some sort of exclusive deal??

Golden Wonder S&V are really zingy and available from home bargains for £1.5 for a 6 pack.

McCoy's S&V crisps have started to taste a bit weak recently too.

Thought that too plus you now only seem to get half a dozen crisps in a packet.

These are amongst the best salt and vinegar crisps I've had. They pack a real punch like crisps from the 80's used to.

Best I've found by a long shot. Eye wateringly strong.

These are the absolute dogs but unfortunately only available in Fullers pubs. They taste like old fashioned chippy chips doused in S’n’V.



I haven’t had any problem getting Walkers originals around my way. Love their pickled onion too, only available in Chavda.
