Given how much of a pack of Walkers Crisps is fresh air, I wonder whether an oxygen cylinder plus mask might allow her to eat other foods instead.

Maybe they could try Torres Selecta truffle-flavoured crisps (only £5 a bag), as favoured by Rishi Sunak no less.

I remember those. They had a kind of texture that made me think ‘if cholesterol was a food, it would be like this’.Originally posted by d000hg View PostMy favourite is the now-defunct:

they are really tasty, but about £3 a bag to the rest of us. I guess he’s just quoting what he claims on expenses.Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostMaybe they could try Torres Selecta truffle-flavoured crisps (only £5 a bag)

I try not to eat anything that's been forced by marketing laws to put the the word "flavoured" in its name.Originally posted by d000hg View PostMy favourite is the now-defunct:

I thought that was ok? Doesn't 'Flavoured' mean that the ingredient actually exists in the food, whilst 'flavour' means it might taste like it's there, but it's all artificial?Originally posted by Paralytic View Post

Although, given the amount of fat in those snack things, after a couple of packets and an ambulance to ICU following a cardiac arrest, I don't think it will really matter

Ah, you might be right - so cheese flavoured might mean it was briefly brushed against a bit of cheese?Originally posted by Whorty View Post

Or in the case of those snacks, all the fat was extracted from the cheese and injected into the snack, whilst the 'good' bit of the cheese went into a low fat pasta sauceOriginally posted by Paralytic View Post

I don't know you'd get something that cheesy without cheese being involved.
They are very much in the pub snack category alongside pork scratching for health concerns though.
