I'm a big crisp fan and I notice the difference between brands. I actually like the salt and shake where you can add the amount of salt to your liking. There are some nice tasting crisps available made in Europe too although it's better to buy British when you can of course. Nice to see your subscribers have exceeded 34K. You're a great friendly bloke so I'm not surprised. Have a good Friday evening. 👍
Walkers developed “sun seed” oil years ago. A mix of sunflower and rapeseed. They championed it on their packaging at the time and for a while because it was lower in saturated fat and made a crisper crisp.
@@bobbybingle1662 As someone on a fairly tight budget I'd prioritise price over flavour on crisps, as I've tasted most brands over the years and there really isn't a massive difference in flavour between any of them, at least not to my palate.
Can't believe it's a year later already , You most definitely deserve all of the success your channel is recieving Gareth , You have worked so hard and it shows and the fact that you somehow still manage to reply to us subscribers is nothing short of awesome, Congratulations and I am really looking forward to year 2 😃😁❤️
Love the snackrite crisps, there is definitely something very moreish about ready salted. Snackrite smoky bacon are gorgeous, also remind me of the grilled bacon flavour crisps you used to get many years back
Seabrook first and then almost any supermarket. Even Waitrose are much cheaper than Walkers and taste better. As for flavour I can't even get my had to go in the bag, any flavour but.
I read recently that an Aldi customer bought an Aldi branded multipack of salted nuts, but the individual packs inside were KP branded - some sort of mix up on the packing line. In that case Aldi crisps are probably made by KP as well. Their crisp brands are McCoys and Tyrells
I have liked Walkers for years but have been buying Aldi plain, and cheese & onion for a while now and they aren't bad tbh. Love a cheeky crisp butty and am actually eating one whilst watching this. Lol.
Salt & vinegar used to be blue and cheese & onion green - but it’s the other way round today! Everything is colour coded - ready salted, red, salt & vinegar green (formerly blue), cheese & onion blue (formerly green), prawn cocktail salmon pink, chicken yellow, smoky bacon reddish-brown … Have you also noticed that the only flavours of crisps that are labelled “Suitable for vegetarians”, other than ready salted, are the meat-flavoured ones?
Golden wonder back in the 60's & 70's were so greasy that you could almost see thru them but that's what made them so delicious. They're all to dry for my taste now except the original kettle chips. Not cheap but so tasty & morish😛
I've started to make my own Gareth . You can get a crisp crisper access and do them in the airfryer, add own salt and olive oil etc. They taste really good.
I remember growing up as a kid Gaz... And always choosing Walkers Crisps... Except when trying other Maize or Corn based snacks... They were usually made by either KP Crisps or Smiths Crisps like... Outer Spacers... Monster Munch... Horror Bags "Bones"... Horror Bags "Fangs"... Horror Bags "Claws"... Horror Bags "Ribs"... Frazzles... Chipsticks... Sky Divers... Disco's... Quavers... Nik Naks... Hula Hoops... etc. Supermarket own brands back in the 70's were awful... Many of these were soggy and tasteless... As well as many of them having green coloured Crisps due to the lack of quality control... They were cheap!... But they definitely weren't cheerful... But over the years though... Almost all of the supermarkets producing own brand Crisps... Upped their game and are now considered by many to be just as good as the big brand named Crisps... And more people will be willing to give them a try... As we're all becoming victims of high inflation and soaring shopping bills... Why pay triple the price for Walkers Crisps... When the Aldi Crisps are just as good... It's probably down to brand loyalty towards Walkers Crisps... But some are starting to see the light now that our budgets are being stretched... Thanks for the review Gaz... All the best... Cheers mate. 🍺
Wow, I remember all those. It's true - Smiths were cardboardy and a bit soggy, and KP were ultra greasy. Golden Wonder we're about the best until Walkers came out - I loved the Worcester sauce flavour!
Hi Gareth, way back in the late 1970's, when I was in my late teens, I loved Smith's crisps crinkle cut, you could only get them at the movies, they just had a distink flavour, nothing like any other chip. Not the same today. I do love Aldi chips, several flavours. Cheers Debra xxx
Another great review. For years I was a Walkers' crisp man, but now I go for the Sainsbury's own label crisps except when the Smith's salt 'n shake are on offer. The last time I bought a Sainsbury's six-pack the price was 85p against about £1.85 for the Walkers'. If you like Doritos then watch out for the special offer on the "Dippers" packs. Normally these are £2.50 a bag, but Sainsbury's have them at £1.25 fairly regularly. As far as I can tell they are no different to the regular Doritos, so with a bit of care you can pick up a bargain. Have you done prepared trifles from the chiller cabinet yet?
Good review Gaz! I buy the Morrison’s multipack. I agree, Walkers are good but not worth the money. Smith’s Salt and Shake (with the little blue packet of salt) are good too but also a bit pricey though at £1.35 for a pack of six in Sainsbury’s. I will try and tune in tonight for the party. Congratulations on 1 year 🎉👍
I have been buying the Aldi "Snackrite" version of Quavers for a while now. You get ten in a pack almost twice the amount in a small bag of Quavers and much cheaper and to me they taste better and in these days of constantly increasing prices it's nice to have the option. And, I didn't need George Useless to tell me that! 🙊😉
Hi Gareth. Thanks for another brill review. I've been looking forward to a crisp review. I like the Walkers one but if you are looking to save money and still get a decent crisp then it's definitely the Aldi one. Keep up the spot on work. Best wishes from Scotland.
Just to let your subscribers know that from Thursday 16th June - Wednesday 22nd June, LIDL will be selling 30 snacktastic crisps for £2.29 works out at around 8p a bag
The snacktastic crisps ,are nice, the crinkle cut ones are better ,75 p for six ,don't like and of the snacktastic snacks ,taste not very nice ,woudant have them for free,but the crisps are ok
I love Tesco Cheese and Onion. No different from Walkers. May I suggest you travel to Millom to Patrons butchers. They have Cumberland Sausage burgers, red onion and marmalade sausages and others. All made by hand on the premises. Hope you are spot on. Take care. Marlene Taylor
Ready salted like wine that goes with any meal. (Sandwiches). I like Mckoys but can’t find them individually have to buy multi but both cheese and onion and salt and vinegar to die for❤️ Stopped buying walkers years ago thought tescos own tasted better.
My favourites are the White Smart Price Family Packs from Asda under. 100 Calories not too salt6 not to unsalted . I rarely eat a full packet anyway so they go to waste . They are £1:10 for a family pack !
Snackrite very good value and they don't skimp on the flavorings either, beef & onion, smokey bacon, chicken all great. Use as a daily item in my work lunchbox.
I love cheese curls from Aldi and Lidl. They are less than 100 calories per bag and are much nicer than Quavers which taste really artificial in comparison. And they are also a whole lot cheaper.
Years ago I was told that ALL crisps are a by product of the starch trade, all crisps are pure profit on the potatoes that would have been thrown away.
Last year I brushed this aside - not being a Ready Salted fan. Brought up on Perri and Tayto Cheese an Onion 😊 But... I fancied something plain. It was Morrisons Savers Ready Salted v the Tesco variety you featured. At about 14p a bag, Morrisons was obviously going to be the cheaper. They were slightly tastier too.
I love the aldi crisps and i would of gone for them I remember when crisps were 3 old pennies when I was a kid .and you got a full even bulging packet of crisps in the late 70s early 80s they brought out a packet of hedgehog flavour crisps my son loved them one day I said let's try one and I did the crisp started like pork sausages which they were love fran xxxx
Near all leave there skins on nowadays 🤷♂️but lots of the supermarkets use the same manufacturer.Walkers you pay for the name! Now personally “Pipers” are the best crisps ever, made and grown in Lincolnshire by farmers, please give them a try 🤩 I buy them from Ocado. Great video 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
I used to buy Seabrook's crisps but have stopped buying them because I found them to be always broken in little bits all the time.not a full crisp in the packet.I buy Lidl own brand now.
For me it just depends where I am and what's available. I'm not loyal to any supermarket so I'll just buy whatevers the right price. If I was to go with flavour alone I'd always go for golden wonder.
Gareth just so you know snackrite crisps are made by KP foods which is a well known brand and you cannot fault snackrite crisps when it comes to value for money
Hi Gareth. With the tofu review and this one, I'm really being looked after! Great review- incidentally, I've never rated Walkers. Another result for the low cost brand. Really enjoyed this. Thanks. Btw. My favourites are Co-op 'Irresistible.' 😋
Walkers are often the most common brand sold in most places always did anoy me that other brands like golden wonder were not so common to find in some places like pubs and vending machines /
I always get walkers, I just personally feel it offers a different experience and vibe than the less pricey brands. However, when I want to go a bit cheaper, I always get the Asda smart price crips (now re-branded to Asda just essentials)
Great vid Gaz. I think this should have been a blind taste test tho. I had Aldi crisps but I found them tasting a bit overcooked. Anyway just my opinion. 😃👍
About time we had a crisps review since I live on crisps a crispoholic. I don't like asdas own crisps and you know I swear by asda so I'm always buying walkers 22 variety and give ready salted away lol but if it was possible in my circumstances I would happily go for snack rite. But they don't do home delivery haha
Ready Salted is my worst flavour of crisps. My faves are Quavers. But a close second are Walkers Max Strong hot chicken wings. Two quid for a big bag but I have some with a sarnie each day and they do 4 or 5 days worth without going soft.
Banging review mate, most of the girls i bring home love abit of salt lol....... Now i know where to get my supplies from, will save me a fortune. Just why is it girls love the salt. well done gazza 😎😎
You can't beat a bag salted off crisps with a beer I usually buy tescos because it's nearest 🤔 talking of beer is your bar open tonight bruv ??? PS you have a good holiday pal 😎😎😎
I still prefer Walker’s but do like McCoy’s ready salted too 😊 my favourite ever crisps were Brannigans roast beef and mustard they were lovely can’t get them these days 🙁 Another great review 👍
There is very little difference in taste so stick with basic supermarket brands if Aldi not near you. You will end up with Walkers in the garage where you buy petrol as their meal deals always include crisps with sandwiches and drink.
Growing up I used to see Golden Wonder Crisps and Smiths only. They used have just three flavours; plain, plain ones with the sachet of salt and cheese and onions.
I always buy snackrite crisps ect from aldi, I think for the money they can't be beaten, I love smokey bacon crisps, I love the multi bag of onion ring, bacon frazles and cheese curls ( cheese watsits), you should try them next they are from aldi as well 👍
My favorite crisp of all time that I used to eat growing up as a kid were called clock face don't know if anyone remembers these but they tasted better and weren't bags of air like Walker's 😋😋
Great review as always 😊 In these times finding the cheaper brands as good as the Big brands is so important, supermarket brands are well worth trying, Growing up I liked Golden Wonder, and Smiths, never liked Walkers, Seabrooks are good brand to try.
Tudor Crisps - made in Peterlee and now long gone. Bought out by Walkers years ago who used the same factory to produce Walkers crisps which are sadly inferior. Loved the adventurous nature of Tudor with the many different flavours. I even got to taste them before they were produced (if at all in some cases) as an uncle knew someone in their product development kitchen.
Eh up Gazza hows tha doin. Loved watching the crisp comparison. Way back cheap crisps were frowned upon. But the quality and taste has got better over time. I miss british crisps. Hope to see you on the live tonight. Have a good one pal.
I only like ready-salted and only the hand cooked Kettle crisps or equivalent. The crisps you tested are what I call "mainstream" crisps, the kind you'd get in a pub or cafe. They are okay, but lack the crunch and flavour of Kettle. Now, actually, Tesco produces a very good alternative, namely Tesco Finest Lightly Salted Crisps for £1 for 150g, although the website claims they are out of stock*. Of course, these superior hand cooked crisps work out more expensive than the mainstream ones, but I would rather spend a bit more. * Don't always believe a supermarket website that claims a product is out of stock. Several times I've gone to my local Tesco and the product is available on the shelves.
Totally agree. Given the price it is Aldi for the win - however I will admit Walkers and Kettle and all those fancy brands are a bit nicer - just not enough to justify the price hike!
Agreed. Where Ready Salted is concerned they are all pretty much the same. I've bought Walkers and Happy Shopper. Not a lot of difference taste wise but just in price. The only real difference is when you go for flavoured crisps. For me you cannot beat Walkers Cheese and onion or Salt and Vinegar. They are leagues ahead. Solid review mate. Crack on.
I buy the Aldi ones or Tesco Stockwell ones which I find are just as nice as the others. I like the Aldi and Tesco big packs where you get 6 ready salted, 6 smokey bacon etc which works out cheaper.
I've just bought 22 packets of walkers crisps in Asda £3.50.. think they competing now .. someone's just mentioned smokey bacon .. lovely . can you remember Oxo crisps .. had chipmunks on front of packet ... moreish ...
The kids love the Wotsits branded snacks, we tried them with Snackrite puffs but it was a total fail in the blind test. I have those cheesy puffs myself, but I tried both and would describe the Snackrite as having less density and crunch when compared to the branded Wotsits. Would appreciate if you could do a comparison of four brands of them. Trying to convince the kids that branded doesn't mean better :)
Great review again on taste the different. I used to love walkers cheese & onion, then I was introduced to Morrisons own brand. Can’t tell the difference on taste, and the supermarket brand are a lot cheaper.
Hi Gareth, I generally choose ready salted but that's because they go with practically most sandwich fillings, the exception being cheese and onion which is a must for a cheese and pickle sarnie. I must admit that I do like a reasonably salty tasting crisp. Cheers to you and good luck for tonight, I'll be tuning in to keep up with the chat.
Have to say my personal favourite is Seabrook Sea salted - nice crisps at a sensible price.
seabrook sea salted are fab!
Yep, Seabrook are my favourite
Seabrook are great!
Seabrook were better before they turned into gluten free 😟
I'm a big crisp fan and I notice the difference between brands. I actually like the salt and shake where you can add the amount of salt to your liking.

yes Steve they are a good one arnt they
There used to be a flavour and shake but I am not sure if it was smiths who made them
I like eating salt n shake with no salt then putting a bit salt on my hand at the end and eating it! Weirdo I am😅
Love salt and shake, but boy has the amount of salt in those little blue bags diminished over the years.
...a big crisp fan?

do you add crisps into an existing sandwich? adds crunch to egg salad sandwich

Stopped buying walkers years ago thought tescos own tasted better.

like Aldi crisps tried them all,best crisps I ever had Seabrook cheese and onion spot on
Cheers 👍👍
I still prefer Walker’s but do like McCoy’s ready salted too 😊 my favourite ever crisps were Brannigans roast beef and mustard they were lovely can’t get them these days 🙁
Another great review 👍
Brannigans were nice , I'd forgotten about those roast beef and mustard ones .
Brannigans beef n mustard were brilliant. I remember them.
thanks 😊
When you peel your spuds, dry the skins then deep fry them, bit of salt or salt and pepper seasoning, very nice😊
Great idea!
Absolutely spot on!
Why waste money?
My favourite crisp - Smokey Bacon, by Rishy Crisps, but way before your time Gareth!
Cheers pal
I'm not a great fan of ready salted but the fact that all you have is the crisp and salt it's probably the best flavour to test for fairness
There is very little difference in taste so stick with basic supermarket brands if Aldi not near you. You will end up with Walkers in the garage where you buy petrol as their meal deals always include crisps with sandwiches and drink.
Growing up I used to see Golden Wonder Crisps and Smiths only. They used have just three flavours; plain, plain ones with the sachet of salt and cheese and onions.
I always buy snackrite crisps ect from aldi, I think for the money they can't be beaten, I love smokey bacon crisps, I love the multi bag of onion ring, bacon frazles and cheese curls ( cheese watsits), you should try them next they are from aldi as well 👍
Spot on David
We tryed snackright and found they have uped yhere game from before nice.
I buy snackrite stackers. They are alot cheaper than Pringles and quite nice xx
thanks Janice x
My favorite crisp of all time that I used to eat growing up as a kid were called clock face don't know if anyone remembers these but they tasted better and weren't bags of air like Walker's 😋😋
Great review as always 😊 In these times finding the cheaper brands as good as the Big brands is so important, supermarket brands are well worth trying, Growing up I liked Golden Wonder, and Smiths, never liked Walkers, Seabrooks are good brand to try.
Cheers pal
I preferred Golden Wonder too, and I agree with you about Seabrooks
I love Golden Wonder crisps i think they are so much better than Walkers, great video buddy
Walkers are of the few branded versions I prefer that i think use a different/sweeter variety of potato
Love aldi crisps - their version of Pom bear crisps are nicer than the branded version! Love your channel!
thanks 😊
The snack rite crisps are alright good value compared to Walkers, but the old Tudor pickled onion were my favs. Nice one Gareth👍
Tudor Crisps - made in Peterlee and now long gone. Bought out by Walkers years ago who used the same factory to produce Walkers crisps which are sadly inferior. Loved the adventurous nature of Tudor with the many different flavours. I even got to taste them before they were produced (if at all in some cases) as an uncle knew someone in their product development kitchen.
Walkers, sunflower and rapeseed in varying proportions. Translated, "we use whatever is cheaper at the moment ". The best, "anything but walkers"
very true
Eh up Gazza hows tha doin. Loved watching the crisp comparison. Way back cheap crisps were frowned upon. But the quality and taste has got better over time. I miss british crisps. Hope to see you on the live tonight. Have a good one pal.
cheers pal
Love your videos mate you are the 'brand loyalists' worst enemy lol
Cheers
I only like ready-salted and only the hand cooked Kettle crisps or equivalent. The crisps you tested are what I call "mainstream" crisps, the kind you'd get in a pub or cafe. They are okay, but lack the crunch and flavour of Kettle. Now, actually, Tesco produces a very good alternative, namely Tesco Finest Lightly Salted Crisps for £1 for 150g, although the website claims they are out of stock*. Of course, these superior hand cooked crisps work out more expensive than the mainstream ones, but I would rather spend a bit more.
* Don't always believe a supermarket website that claims a product is out of stock. Several times I've gone to my local Tesco and the product is available on the shelves.
cheers pal
The Shadows were indeed a group. Also rhyming slang, Hank Marvin - starving. 😊 Golden Wonder are very salty.
Like bot Aldi and Lidl crisps, best value and great flavour
Most of these - aside from the Walkers - I bet are made on the same production line in the same factory
Totally agree. Given the price it is Aldi for the win - however I will admit Walkers and Kettle and all those fancy brands are a bit nicer - just not enough to justify the price hike!
Agreed. Where Ready Salted is concerned they are all pretty much the same. I've bought Walkers and Happy Shopper. Not a lot of difference taste wise but just in price. The only real difference is when you go for flavoured crisps. For me you cannot beat Walkers Cheese and onion or Salt and Vinegar. They are leagues ahead. Solid review mate. Crack on.
I buy the Aldi ones or Tesco Stockwell ones which I find are just as nice as the others. I like the Aldi and Tesco big packs where you get 6 ready salted, 6 smokey bacon etc which works out cheaper.
If you like pringles, try the Aldi version. I prefer them. And at less than half the price, I can shovel them down.
Cheers pal.
Spot on.....moneys .Kin....tight.keep up the good work
love your honesty really good keep it up wish some one in Australia would do this hey may be me hahahahahah
Cheers Peter
Thanks
cheers Hardy your very kind thanks 😊
I've just bought 22 packets of walkers crisps in Asda £3.50.. think they competing now .. someone's just mentioned smokey bacon .. lovely . can you remember Oxo crisps .. had chipmunks on front of packet ... moreish ...
Great review Gareth! Hope you enjoyed your hols & all is well
yes all good Sarah x
The kids love the Wotsits branded snacks, we tried them with Snackrite puffs but it was a total fail in the blind test. I have those cheesy puffs myself, but I tried both and would describe the Snackrite as having less density and crunch when compared to the branded Wotsits. Would appreciate if you could do a comparison of four brands of them. Trying to convince the kids that branded doesn't mean better :)
Thank you 👌 one to look at
Great review again on taste the different. I used to love walkers cheese & onion, then I was introduced to Morrisons own brand. Can’t tell the difference on taste, and the supermarket brand are a lot cheaper.
I rarely eat crisps,but if I do I'll splash out on Pringles or McCoy's in a meal deal. But four or five times a year???🏴
Probably taste difference down to the type of potatoes and the oil used.
I prefer Aldi brand cheese and onion.
Hi Gareth, I generally choose ready salted but that's because they go with practically most sandwich fillings, the exception being cheese and onion which is a must for a cheese and pickle sarnie. I must admit that I do like a reasonably salty tasting crisp. Cheers to you and good luck for tonight, I'll be tuning in to keep up with the chat.
So you're a crisp in kinda guy?
@@VampireJack10 I guess I am 👍🏻😆
Hello James hope your good pal, not heard from you in a while. Yes glad you can tune in face a good weekend pal. 👍👍
@@BaldFoodieGuy yeah, life gets in the way Gareth, you know how it is lol! Definitely be tuning in tonight 👍🏻
Hi Gaz , good vid, how about after choosing fav crisps now do one finding best beer to go with crisp .
Great idea
