Which is of course why they reduced the fat content in the first place

Crisps are the devil's spawn. Potato is a mainly really nasty simple carbohydrates that leads to big changes in the blood sugar level causing mood swings, obesity, diabetes etc. They are full of nasty trans fats that are worse than saturated fats at clogging up your circulation. Finally all the flavour and preservatives are nasty E number chemicals. Most times I see crisps being consumed in public it's a fatty.

Nope, just one crisp (Salt&Lineker flavour, I believe) is enough to raise your BMI to 58, give you diabetes -requiring amputation of your left leg and turning your underpants into a fetching Burberry check.

Has anyone tried Skips recently? I used to love these crisps since I was a nipper , but now they've got a 'New, Great Taste' without lower fat and no MSG.

Now they taste

Am I alone in preferring crisps sans sel?

Salt 'n' shake - much nicer au naturel

And I had a sack of Sainsbury's Most Regal or whatever crisps cooked in sunflower oil with 35% less fat and no salt. And jolly nice they were too Tres bon vraiment Marlene.
