Advantages: Good flavour, Tasty, Many flavours, Cool look, Cheap

Disadvantages: Small bags (BIG bags available in certain flavours though)

Golden Wonders are actually really tasty crisps. The packets don't seem to be full of crisps, especially with the smaller 25g multipack bags, but there are enough for a good snack. The thing I love about them is the flavour is so intense. They have very strong and subtle flavours, which bring such pleasure to your taste buds, which they spring to life!

They come in simple and smart packets. They each have a different background colour depending on the flavour. Towards the top of each pack is the Golden Wonder logo. It is in a large and red bold font, surrounded by a splash effect of yellow, with a small outline of white around that to really make them stand out! They can be seen on the shop shelf from a good distance, and have a clear and nice look. Just below, it says the flavour of the pack along with a picture of a crisp, which is the same on every pack. However, the picture is showing you the shape of the crisp, which is flat and curved slightly. The crisps are smooth and have little texture unlike Walkers crisps, which seem to have the surface like the moon with holes everywhere on the big ones and a weird look. I like the look of these crisps, as they look tasty and it's all very simple.

The taste is fantastic. My favourite are the salt and vinegar flavour as they have such an intense taste, which I can't get enough of! The cheese and onion flavour is great too. They actually make loads of flavours, which I have yet to try, but here is a taster (excuse me for the pun):

Prawn Cocktail
Roast Chicken
Sausage & Tomato
Smokey Bacon
Spring Onion
Tomato Ketchup

They also sell all the standard flavours including Pickled Onion that you get with other crisps. The flavours are very intense with every pack I have tried and they are filling as a snack and very tasty!

You can buy them as single packets, in multipacks or even in boxes of 32 or 40 variety packs. The multipacks are also of variety; however some can be bought all of the same flavour if you really like one. I find the 10 pack multipack good, as it gives you a good variety of the salt and vinegar, cheese and onion and ready salted flavours. There are loads of different multipacks with unique selections in each one to choose from.

NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION:

Golden Wonder Crisps 34.5g Range - Ready Salted

Energy - 180kcal
Protein - 1.7g
Carbohydrate - 18.1g
Of which sugars - 0.2g
Fat - 11.2g
Of which saturates - 1.3g
Fibre - 1.3g

That isn't bad for a 34.5g pack. The nutritional information is of great similarity from flavour to flavour, but they are all a bit different.

They range from around 30p to 35p in shops. They are sold in supermarkets or single stores in Scotland. However, they can be found in Tesco and places similar all around England. Very good crisps with an intense flavour and simple look, so highly recommended to anyone to try them out! I am sure you will like them!

Thanks for reading,

Spring onion flavour!? How odd! Never been a Golden Wonders fan, I never feel they quite match up to Walkers.
