Whilst trawling (in vain) the last few Co-ops for goodies, I found some 150 gm packets of crisps in their "Truly Irresistible" range. One flavour caught me by surprise. Sea Salt & Chardonnay.
So for dix points...What Next ?

Aha!...a little knowledge. Many thanks for the pic, as I may well have bought some without it.

It's another con...chardonnay wine vinegar... :qofyuk:

Bacchus, you should be used to white wine vinegar, with your purchasing history.... :P

Your not alone. Other reviews use some nasty words about them.

CRISPS FOR crispmas

The ultimate crispmas dinner: Tesco launches turkey, stuffing and first ever MINCE PIE flavour

It’s been nicknamed the ‘Crispmas Dinner collection’ and is surely one of the most unusual snack selections ever launched.
Tesco has launched a complete festive meal - made of crisps.
It even comes with 'dessert' - the UK’s first ever sweet crisps in the form of mince pie flavour, seasoned with dried fruit, spices and buttery pastry.

Tesco launches mince pie flavour, and roast Norfolk turkey and stuffing with onion gravy, as part of the Finest range

The 'meal' also includes Wensleydale and cranberry cheese flavour or spiced gammon for starters, and roast turkey and stuffing with onion gravy flavour for mains.

The selection is aimed at the growing hand cooked premium crisp market which has risen by 20 per cent in the last year.

Yike :shock:

What on earth were they thinking, they sound horrid.

What next? Baby Sick & Burnt Hair Flavour?*









*If this flavour ever hits the market, let it be known that I thought of it first and will claim my fee.

having eaten a few more they become a bit more bearable but still not worth the effort or the £1.09

you'd do a whole lot better buying a pack of Frazzles
