The price enables you to eat double the amount of crisps, which doubles the crunch & the flavour!

Walkers have changed. They often seem to taste like the contents have gone slightly stale. Guessing they have made them slightly healthier but they really aren't as nice and "crisp" as they used to be.

This works out at 13.3p per pack, I find the flavours, texture and quality "spot on" . To be honest I would begrudge paying more than twice as much for "brand name" Crisps when the difference in the end result is negligible. Just to backup my point....

Initially I started to buy the snackrite crisps because of the cost and between walkers and snackrite, I prefer the snackrite.

The thinner crisp will fry quicker which will be a major contribution to the price.

I used to buy Walkers Cheese and Onion crisps, but I buy the Snackrite Cheese Onion ones now. They are as about as close to Walkers as I have had before and at a much cheaper price. I think the worst price at the moment is Walkers French Fries, as you only get 17g per bag compared to the 25g for crisps, so they are ridiculously expensive for what you actually get. It's one of the few types of snacks for which I have never seen a copy.

I wonder how one could choose randomly from one bowl or the other without someone there to mix the bowls around. Maybe blindfolded Gareth could turn around very fast several times on the spot so he becomes very dizzy, then he grabs one of the bowls and tests the crisps in that bowl. By then the choice should be pretty random as he'd be completely disorientated.

Walkers are overpriced, probably to cover their advertising costs using overpaid “celebrities”😉 Aldi all day long for me, they’re just as good, especially the cheese & onion ones.

No one will ever be as good as Tudor... great childhood memories of them 😋

I always add a load of white pepper and MSG to any crisps I buy , so by pimping up any crisps taste fantastic, but what’s amazed me is you’ve found two packets of crisps that don’t look like some guys jumped up and down on them before they left the factory lol 😂🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

I used to take the Aldi and Lidl crisps to work as they were cheap. But I do find the Flavour of Walkers is far superior, especially with the cheese and onion. Like everything else these days it's down to your individual budget.

Walkers are all for the brand but others out there better and more value for money. Smiths I think we’re great too for the salt & shake xx

Personally I would always go for the own brand or cheaper option. The savings are worth the fact that sometimes the taste and quality are not quite as good.

We must not forget that Walkers have to pay Gary Lineker a lot for all the witty and well acted ads. We have to bear the cost of all that talent.

The Walkers looked a bit less damaged in transit to me, but that could be the luck of the draw -- though it would make sense if they were slightly thicker. Both look about the same as standard American "crisps", which is to say, not as good as the more "gourmet" varieties like Tim's or Kettle. You probably don't get those -- maybe you have fancy brands too, though.

I shop at Aldi as its really close and the Snackrite munchies are pretty good for the price. I'm currently consuming a bag of 'Melts'. Same as Skips and taste just as good. Think I paid about 79p for a six pack.

Walkers quality varies depending on if its new or old potatoes just like a chip shop does. They also own golden wonder so do produce other brands of crisps as well. Generally i do prefer walkers over cheaper brands. Currently walkers at tesco are £1.65 again for 6.

Try Seabrook crisps. They’re amazing!

I always bought Walkers Crisps from Asda, but with prices going up I started shopping at Aldi and Find many of their (knock off brands) for snacks really quite good and a hell of a lot Cheaper. Snackrite Ridged crisps are really good.

I've stopped buying Walkers, I now use Stockwell's (84p) from Tesco's. No comparison in taste, but for packing up at work, they do a job. I used to love Walker's Smokey Bacon & Cheese & Onion, but they taste nothing like they used to.

Golden wonder are sold in the shops I go into , hardly see Walkers , but when I do they are much more expensive than any others. I'll always buy stores own multi packs but if I'm wanting a treat I don't mind buying Kettle or such like .

If they're both 25g then you'd get the same volume - but the rest is down to preference isn't it? You could always add a little extra to the Aldi ones if you prefer a stronger flavour - thanks for a great review.

You're welcome

I tried Aldi's Snackrite range and I can't falt them especially the gourmet range they can punch their weight with Walkers that's for sure
