Quaker Snack-A-Jacks Salt & Vinegar

A healthy snack. We all know that rice cakes are considered a healthy snack, well now you can get them in bite sized, snack packets instead of big disc like cakes they used to come in. Snack a Jacks produce a range of rice cakes in crisp like packets in a variety of different flavours. My favourite flavour has to be their salt and vinegar variety which come in a blue crisp packet. I am always looking for a healthier alternative to classic crisps but something that still offers that crisp type flavour/experience and in these I think I have found that. Basically they are round/rice cake style snacks with a salt and vinegar flavour. The ...  Read the complete review

I'm a teenage girl and don't exactly have the highest metabolism, so constantly trying to find snacks that don't give me a bum the size of brazil. Luckily, I'm actually a bit of a fan of food which others complain taste of 'cardboard', such as bran and rice cakes but even I get sick of just plain old rice cakes as a snack...give me a bit of chocolate any day! So that's why these seemed a god send when I spied them in whsmith...salt and vinegar rice and corn snacks, but only 89 calories per pack. Packaging ******** The salt and vinegar packs are blue, as is standard, and are designed well with 'snack a jacks' ina big speech bubble and a pile of ...  Read the complete review

---Intro--- Having found the perfect snack in the shape of Quaker's Snack-A-Jacks Sour Cream & Chive flavoured rice and corn snacks, I was eager to try the other available flavours. Imagine my sheer delight when I found that our Tesco was selling the other flavours (they weren't before) and on offer - 2 packs of 6 22g bags for £3. So, I put a pack of Salt and Vinegar and pack of Caramel in our trolley. ---The Packet--- The individual packet is a blue colour with pictures of the snack-a-jacks. On the back there is a little quote from some random member of the public about a 'Tag watch' - there's different ones on each packet ...  Read the complete review

I'm a huge fan of Snack-a-Jacks in general, but especially the salt and vinegar flavour. Overall I think they're a really satisfying snack but not anywhere near as bad for you as crisps. ********** How to Buy + Price ********** You can get them these days from all major supermarkets, but often also from smaller grocery shops and even petrol stations. The most cost-effective way to buy them is probably in the multipacks, especially as they often seem to have deals on. My most recent purchase was 2 x multpacks of 6 22g bags for £3. I think the individual bags are normally 30g, unless this has very recently changed and I haven't noticed yet. Off ...  Read the complete review

Snack a Jacks have become a popular, healthier alternative to crisps... here's the low down on the salt and vinegar flavour. ************Price************ I usually pay around 60p for a pack of these from my local Boots. However they are much cheaper when you buy them in bulk from the supermarket. In Tesco's you can get a multipack of six for £1.98 which works out at 33p a packet. ************* Nutritional value************** This product is low in fat. A 26g pack contains: Calories: 105 Sugars: 0.5 Fat: 1.9g Saturates: 0.2g Salt: 0.7g They are also suitable for vegetarians and ...  Read the complete review
