Taytos are great Golden Wonder are even better but Go Ahead crisps are the best cos they're lower in fat only 2% saturated fat. The salt and vinegar are well nice as they're really mild. and only 99cal per pack.
I highly recommend you try them. I am a crisp addict.
I still really love Marks and spencers crisps.
I found some better crisps..

m&s food is just the best, it's a shame our store in king's lynn doesn't have a very big food section, but the stuff i've tried from their makes your realise just how rubbish tesco and the like is.
btw, i think the mulipack quavers are only 99 calories a bag, aren't they? i could live on these and m&s mash.

Marks and Sparks have just opened a food only store, here in Devizes.
The big problem is that it's DREADFUL value for money.
Yes, no question, the food is twice or three times the quality you find elsewhere, but the problem is that it's four or five times the price you find elsewhere.
A great pity, really, as it's the sort of place I'd LIKE to shop, but I really can't afford it.

This is something that has puzzled me for a while now... a couple of years ago, they opened up an M&S Simply Food store at my local BP garage. I understand that it's all part of their concentration on food to dig themselves out of trouble blah blah blah, and I also know the store is doing very well indeed - but how can a fairly expensive food store located at a BP garage in the middle of nowhere in particular work?
Oh yeah. Crisps.

I wish i could afford to do my weekly shop at M&S. I'm hoping that we'll get an M&S built on the business park they have mapped on the estate i live on and a petrol station. I say estate it's becoming like a little town now. We have in the last 12months had a Lidl built and opened also a pub. In the last 5 years there has been a community centre and primary school built and a tesco express. Next major project is finishing the bypass that will probably take forever and untold chaos. Think there is gonna be shedloads of new houses too.
Mental anxiety, Mental breakdowns, Menstrual cramps, Menopause... Did you ever notice how all our problems begin with Men?
I went for lunch at M&S a few weeks back, so I could sit in Civic Centre park and eat with some friends.
For a chicken sandwich, flavoured water, packet of tomato and basil crisps, and a slice of M&S carrot cake = £6.50.
At least you get a fab little cool bag to keep your lunch in. But the food's just too bloody expensive!

I think it's a BP tacked onto an M&S, Warrington has two M&S, one in the Town, one outside of Town by the M62, infact I think it was one of the first in the UK not to be opened in a Town anyway, there has always been a BP station based there within the M&S premises, I can't say I've been into the store, so I can't be certain whether they sell M&S food or not.nodnirG kraM wrote:Whose store is it? Is it a M&S Simply Food tacked onto a BP or is it a BP tacked onto an M&S? Cos if M&S are only renting shop space and are being provided with BP's staff, location and customers then it only really needs to shift the occasional ready meal and bag of crisps to cover its costs.
If they've replaced the likes of Coca Cola and Pepsi with their own brands in the chiller I sense it's a doom situation though!
M&S food is really nice, especially the Strawberries, second to none.

Try Monster Munch Spicy Flavour to step into the wild side of shaped and flavoured corn production.
My store is definitely an M&S within a BP. The store has changed brands a number of times, and it used to be one of those BP jungle cafe things before M&S appeared. I just can't get my head around why the two would be compatible - the last place I'd put an expensive, "exclusive" food store is in a petrol station. And it isn't a big store either, so it isn't as though people would trek there especially.nwtv2003 wrote:I think it's a BP tacked onto an M&S, Warrington has two M&S, one in the Town, one outside of Town by the M62, infact I think it was one of the first in the UK not to be opened in a Town anyway, there has always been a BP station based there within the M&S premises, I can't say I've been into the store, so I can't be certain whether they sell M&S food or not.nodnirG kraM wrote:Whose store is it?
