McCoys Cheddar & Onion Crisps - 26x47.5g

Product Information

Since Weight Watchers introduced the new Personal Points plan it is harder to calculate points. This means I can no longer offer exact WW Points for food lists. (I am working on the recipe part). HOW MANY CALORIES SHOULD I BE CONSUMING PER DAY? Pringles are particularly fatty and salty as they are produced using potato and cornflour that has been deep fried. This high quantity of sodium and saturated fat can be harmful to your pet, so pringles should never be offered as a treat. Can dogs eat Walkers salt and vinegar crisps? A cheaper and less robust alternative to Doritos, these are fine as party or barbecue fodder but they tend to snap too readily when used to scoop up salsa.

These parsnip, sweet potato and beetroot crisps are tasty enough though they can make the fingers a little greasy. They are, however, robust enough to dip in hummus without breaking (usually), which is always good. Note that at the time of writing all crisps from Walkers are made in factories that handle milk, which could be a problem for some vegans, and certainly for anyone with a severe milk allergy. Crisp Name/Flavour Spicy Sriracha– A new flavour in the classic range, we unfortunately have no idea what they taste like as they contain sour cream powder from milk Max Fiery Peri-Peri– Contains lactose and whey powder from milk, annoyingly as these look darn tasty! Inactive - Do very little exercise, going for the occasional walk (moderate pace, low intensity). Spend majority of leisure time doing activities such as watching TV, playing computer games, on the internet, reading, cooking, driving, general household chores.Very similar to Pom Bears, these monkey face-shaped crisps will keep screaming toddlers occupied for at least 30 seconds. And, the good news for vegans, as we discuss in our Are Pringles Vegan? article, is that there are a good number of flavours that are fine for those following a plant-based diet. See below for the details. Crisp Name/Flavour Another very nice crisp from the Finest range, and again a decent value alternative to some of the branded options. Good news, Nik Nak lovers: none of the three main flavours – Nice ‘N’ Spicy, Rib ‘N’ Saucy or Scampi ‘N’ Lemon – contain any animal-derived ingredients and so are fine for vegans. Made by roasting and salting broad beans, if vegetable crisps can be included in this category, then so can these. They are very crunchy and surprisingly tasty too, and with just broad beans, sunflower oil and salt listed as ingredients, they are one of the simplest ‘crisp’ options there is.

The makers of Kettle Chips were founded in 1978 and produced their first crisps (or potato chips as they would say, being from Oregon, USA) in 1982. They have a factory in Norwich and over 90% of the potatoes they use for UK crisps are sourced from within 35 miles of that factory, which at least gives them something of an ethical edge. Smoky Bacon– Dried milk lactose again scuppers the vegan credentials of yet another Walkers flavour that would otherwise be fine

The Deli flavours that are vegan friendly are: Mediterranean Balsamic Vinegar, Roasted Garlic & Mediterranean Herbs (Pita Chips), and Anglesey Sea Salt. If your dog eats one single crisp, this shouldn't cause them harm, but it's always worth speaking with your vet if you have any concerns. As little as one bag could cause sodium poisoning or pancreatitis, and longer term consumption may lead to weight gain and obesity. Can dogs eat Wotsits crisps? Looking at those crisp brands bought by Walkers to be permanently benched such as Burtons XL and Bensons they had good flavours. Both the Lightly Salted and the Sea Salt & Balsamic Vinegar flavoured Veg Chips are fine for vegans. A class above the standard Walkers crisps, these have a premium feel to them, with fancy flavours to match.

Perhaps surprisingly vegan, any former omnivores who crave a bacon fix might choose these (though how close the taste is to real bacon, we really can’t remember!)

Marks and Spencer Reduced Fat Cheese Tasters 6pk

Some people love ready salted crisps, in all their banal blandness. The Tesco own-brand version does what’s expected of them and are good value. Available at the time of writing in two flavours (Beetroot with Sweet Chilli Jam, or Sweet Potato with Paprika), these have significantly less fat than other options in the veg crisp niche (for example, the Beetroot and Sweet Chilli Jam crisps have 14g of fat per 100g, compared to around 32g of fat per 100g of the Tyrells Mixed Root Vegetable Crisps. These aren’t quite as nice though!

With a little less salt than the standard Ready Salted crisps, these will appeal to those who care about such things. They taste pretty similar. Its a real eye opener the flavours that existing brands used to do (not including discontinued brand offshoots such as Golden Wonders 'Kung Fuey'). This will be of concern to some vegans, but more so to people with severe milk allergies. Many vegans, however, will judge Doritos and other products by the ingredients they contain, and on that front, there are some Doritos flavours that qualify as vegan friendly. See below to find out which ones. Crisp Name/Flavour

As featured in

Some time ago supermarkets came to the realisation that creating their own versions of well-loved food products could be a real money spinner. By creating similar (but often slightly less enticing) products, but charging a good deal less than the big name brands, supermarkets gave consumers the choice of prioritising brand or economic value. This is apparent across many different food product ranges, including crisps. Honey Glazed Barbecue Sunbites– Honey doesn’t pop up in crisps too often, but it does here, thus making these non-vegan Overall though, at least for the vegans who are prepared to risk the chance of cross-contamination with milk products, there is a vast range of crisp options available. In terms of the supermarket own-brand vegan-friendly crisp options, some fare better than others.
