Crisps

Nik Naks aren't "full" anymore, there's a lot more air in the middle. That's why they're shitter I think.

Aldi knock off version is actually better, but I need to get on these Wotsits it appears.

+1 for Aldi's knock off Nik Naks. Great value as well.

Bought some Walkers Max Extra Flamin' Hot crisps that were proclaiming themselves to be new. No idea if they aren't but they aren't bad. First one was a bit meh but the heat builds so not a total disappointment.

The hot sauce blaze ones are good

That's exactly it, they're not near as dense as they used to be.

The only bother with the Aldi ones is that I haven't seen the scampi and lemon version yet.

There's a shop aimed at all the Asian students nearby which has a wacky crisp section. There are some kind of Malaysian garlic things which are great but absolutely reek, and I'm tempted to try the lime flavour Lays but they're £3 so I can't justify the gamble if they're shit.

Got some crunchy wotsits in that extra flamin' hot flavour. Superb.

Are those effectively just Cheetos?

[Ian]

They're basically an improvement on (modern) NikNaks. How that compares to a Cheeto I couldn't tell you, haven't had them since about 1997.

[niko_cee]

Are those effectively just Cheetos?

Yeah, similar, although they are a bit crunchier/more dense.

The cheese ones are great as are the hot ones.

[Baz]

Are Pipers crisps good?

[Clunge]

Yup. The Longhorn ones are superb. The jalapeno/dill ones are great too, and the chorizo ones.

[Ian]

Yeah like Pipers a lot. I've got some of the chorizo ones on the go as we speak.

[Baz]

FFS. Everyone was absolutely buzzing over them after they were donated as a snack at a recent work event, and I left before having any. although someone did moan that there was no cheese and onion, despite all the mega looking flavours, such as chorizo.
