Advantages: thick, crispy, full of flavour, tastes great, smells delicious, value for money
Disadvantages: not many in a bag, costly
*{INTRODUCTION}*
I have been on the lookout for some better tasting crisp, I don't eat a lot of crisp but the odd bag does it for me. I normally tend to buy walkers, but I think in my personal opinion they have gone a little down hill, as far as taste and how many you get in a bag, and not worth the money you spend. I came across these crisp at my local spar shop, they looked appealing so I decided to pop a bag into my basket.
*{ABOUT, TASTE, FLAVOUR}*
I bought a multipack from my local spar shop, and decided to give them a try I am glad I did, as I wasn't disappointed. They had such flavours as cheese and onion, salt and vinegar and ready salted, although you can buy other multipacks with different flavours in them. I am not to keen on the salt and vinegar ones or the ready salted they are just not my type of flavour, but do eat them if I have to. These are very tasty crisps, and could really have more than one bag at a time (I don't though) but after one bag you're satisfied. The flavours bursts out into your mouth, and can really taste the flavour, as soon as you open the bag you can smell them, and you can't wait to tuck in.
The multipacks you get 2 of each flavour, and you don't get tired of eating them like I used to do with walkers, they rigid in shape, and are a thicker crisp, although can be to hard sometimes to crunch. You don't get so many in a bag which is a shame for the cost, but they are overall a better tasting crisp, and wouldn't change these for anything else.
*{PACKAGING & INFORMATION}*
The packaging on the crisp is quite appealing and draws you to them, the bag is quite large, and looks quite bulky. Each bag of crisp there will be information on calories and so forth so you know what is inside them and how much. Each bag also contains a foil inside to keep the crisp fresh and so lasting longer.
*{AVAILABILITY & PRICE}*
I bought my multipack from my local spar the first time around at £1.86, but you can buy them from supermarkets, I did buy some of these at asda as they were on offer for £1, which was a great saver. When they aren't on offer you can be spending £1.86 on these which are not bad just a shame they don't have more in the bags.
*{FINAL THOUGHTS}*
I think I will be keeping to these crisp, they are packed with flavour, and they are tasty, thick and smell delicious. My partner and my son likes them too, which for a multipack is ideal for us all. I'm glad I tried these and wasn't disappointed, as I think they are value for money.
Summary: McCoys - big flavour, thick and crispy, big taste, smells great
