A running log of crisps I’ve tried + a short review on each!

Note: Since I’m based in the UK, crisps is the proper term, not chips. Just wanted to get that out there.

Kettle Sweet Chili & Sour Cream
Kettle Sweet Chili & Sour Cream
04 July 2023 8/10 Chili and Sour Cream – Never have I seen this combination in a pack before. They’re a pretty tasteful combination too; they go very well together which I did not expect. Though, I did it weird at first.
McCoy’s Cheddar and Onion
McCoy’s Cheddar and Onion
02 July 2023 9/10 This is another one of their all-time classics. I don’t prefer it over the Flame Grilled Steak, but I’d happily grab one these off the shelf and not have an issue. This is an easy recommendation from me.
Kettle Steakhouse Barbecue

18 June 2023 2/10 You see, I usually like barbeque flavoured crisps hence why I picked these up as I’ve never tried them. However, the barbeque flavour featured here was very bland, and is by far the worst I’ve ever tasted. It also makes these the worst crisps by Kettle so far…
McCoy’s Flame Grilled Steak
McCoy’s Flame Grilled Steak
16 June 2023 10/10 An absolute favourite of mine! It’s full of flavour. It’s fantastic. It’s a top-tier contender! This world needs more steak flavoured crisps.
Walkers Sensations Thai Sweet Chilli
Walkers Sensations Thai Sweet Chilli
14 June 2023 9/10 These were very nice. The spiciness mixed in with the sweetness is just perfect. However, given Walkers’ track record with me, I didn’t think this was going to be any good, but I’m glad to have been proven wrong as I’ll definitely be grabbing another pack soon.
Pringles Texas BBQ
Pringles Texas BBQ
10 June 2023 7/10 These are amongst one of my favourites in the Pringles line-up. Sure, sometimes they lack the fullness in flavour compared to their competition, but that BBQ taste is simply delightful. It’s great with Cider too. I’m surprised these aren’t copied more often!
Eat Real Lentil Chips
Eat Real Lentil Chips
10 June 2023 6/10 This is a familiar taste. It’s one of those “healthy” options you encounter once in a while. Most have an inofensive taste including this one. It doesn’t stand out as anything exceptional. It’s quite plain really. Similar to the Plantain Chips, I don’t mind receiving them for free (which happens to be the case here), but I wouldn’t choose to purchase them myself.
Walkers Sensations Regal Lamb & Mint
Walkers Sensations Regal Lamb & Mint
10 June 2023 3/10 The lamb flavour is present, but unfortunately, it doesn’t meet my expectations. It has a strong and dominant presence, and the addition of mint ruins the overall taste. It’s just a weird combination. I glad that it’s a limited-edition product.
Grace Sweet Chilli Plantain Chips
Grace Sweet Chilli Plantain Chips
08 June 2023 6/10 The crisps had a pleasant taste, although they were slightly mushy in texture. The combination of sweet and chili with the Plantain provided a unique flavour experience, but it didn’t quite match my personal preferences. Whilst these may not be crisps I would purchase again, I wouldn’t mind receiving it as a gift or trying it on occasion.
Jack’s Mature Cheddar & Red Onion Hand Cooked Crisps
Jack's Cheddar & Red Onion Hand Cooked Crisps
06 June 2023 9/10 I found these to be much more enjoyable compared to their Lightly Sea Salted counterpart. The flavour is significantly richer, far from being bland. Additionally, it maintains the same crispness and texture as its counterpart, making it even more satisfying.
Jack’s Lightly Sea Salted Hand Cooked Crisps
Jack's Lightly Sea Salted Hand Cooked Crisps
05 June 2023 4/10 Given that I typically don’t enjoy lightly salted crisps, I didn’t have high expectations for this one. Consequently, I found the taste somewhat disappointing – it was rather bland. However, it does have reasonable crispness and texture, reminiscent of crisps by Kettle.
