Advantages: Cheap

Disadvantages: Stale flavour and texture

We have only two supermarkets on the island where I live, one is Tesco the other is Co-Op. Tescos is a recent addition and I have to say the island community were divided by its presence. Half rejoicing ( myself included ) due to the low prices , the other dubious about the store.

Value potato rings were one of the first purchases I made with my first shop there. Now if you are expecting them to be ( as I was ) like Hula Hoops I am afraid you're going to be exceptionally disappointed. The texture of the potato ring is much thinner. They are also a lot crispier. The flavour ( these crisps come in ready salted only ) was bland and greasy , they have a stale taste to them.

I also buy Tescos value snacks bag which is a combination of cheese puffs, vinegar sticks and onion rings . I have 3 youngsters who demolish these within a day or so of getting them from store to cupboard , however the potato rings sat in my cupboard after the first packets were tried until they were eventually thrown away.

This to me speaks volumes, if I cant persuade my junk food junkie children to eat them then even though they are extremely cheap they aren't worth even the price they are offered at.

Wouldn't buy again.

Summary: Not worth even the small amount they are offered for
