Best, Best Savoury Snacks! ?

For me it’s maize based stuff as opposed to potato based.

Snaps, Quavers, Wotsits and the like… although I am partial to Hula Hoops…

And as mentioned on the Chocolate thread:
Scampi Fries and Cheesy Moments - available behind the bar of your local in the 90’s (do they still do them?)

So, what is your savoury snack of choice?

Thank you smile

Lidl used to sell peanut flavour things which were the exact texture of wotsits (my predictive text wrote wetsuits!)
They were my favourite savoury snack of all time!!!

Pipers crisps, wonderful flavours. You can also get non salted ones, my favourites as don’t like too much salt on savoury snacks. Cashew nuts. Can’t stand Pringles, take the roof of your mouth off.

I love cheeselets as well MissA but can only get them at Christmas.

MissAdventure Wed 23-Feb-22 08:58:21

I really have to watch myself with savoury things in the house.
I can leave chocolate until it's out of date, but the rustle of a crisp packet is music to my ears.

Chopsticks and dip sticks and hummous with rice cakes,
You can keep chocolate and sweeties and nice cakes,
Pringles and cheeselets, and cheese made like strings....
These are a few of my favourite things!

Pringles - either salt & vinegar or sour cream
And I’m now looking forward to trying them with hummus as suggested - yummy

MissAdventure Wed 23-Feb-22 09:10:04

I can't eat salt and vinegar flavoured things these days.
Too strong!
I will though, if I 'have' to.

Jacobs mini cheddars sticks, think they are new, crunchy cheesy little sticks, oh my goodness, food of the devil??

MissAdventure I’m sure wetsuits have been sold at some stage in Lidl middle aisle!

MissAdventure Wed 23-Feb-22 09:16:32

I've had those.
They are really cheesy arent they?
Lovely and tangy.

Nannylovesshopping Wed 23-Feb-22 09:47:27

Missadventure they certainly are, they come in a family pack, so have to get stuck in or they’d go stale, can never find one of those clicks closer things, can’t bear waste, so what’s a girl to do??

Walkers cheese and onion crisps, unless there’s a cold sausage lurking in the fridge (which I would share with my doggy but thankfully she doesn’t like crisps!).

MissAdventure Wed 23-Feb-22 09:54:02

My favourite flavour.
Good old cheese and onion.
Then ready salted.
Followed by chicken.
Prawn cocktail are only for desperate times.

Do many folk upgrade their crisp snack to meal status by stuffing it between 2 slices of buttered bread? Don’t knock it till you’ve tried it ?

Pistachios.

MissAdventure Wed 23-Feb-22 10:39:01

Oh yes.
I love a crisp sandwich!

Pantglas2 Wed 23-Feb-22 10:46:50

Bombay mix for me!

MissAdventure Wed 23-Feb-22 10:47:33

I like that, too.

Casdon Wed 23-Feb-22 10:51:37

Nocellara olives, I absolutely love them. Second favourite is salted peanuts, but I keep a check on myself or I would eat far too many.

MissAdventure Wed 23-Feb-22 10:52:51

I cant seem to get on board with olives.
Must try them again I think.

MissAdventure Wed 23-Feb-22 10:53:32

Cashew nuts.

BlueSky Wed 23-Feb-22 10:53:51

I don’t snack, savoury or sweet. And I’m still chubby! angry

MiniMoon Wed 23-Feb-22 11:01:22

Twiglets. Very moreish. I can polish off a Christmas tube of them pretty quickly!

Very clever MissAdventure I've got an earworm now. grin grin
I like Walker's Baked crisps
but I rarely buy them because I would eat them if they were in the cupboard. grin
