14 Walkers Deep Ridged per bag !

Ally Dick

Come on now Walkers. What a rip off. Their new deep ridged crisps has on average only 14 crisps per bag ! Time to sue Gary Lineker !

What??

Squash the bag before you open it. You'll at least double the amount you get then

Gary doesn't actually make them. Don't shoot the messenger.

14 walkers deep ridged sounds like Zombie porn.

And Rowntree have cut a chunk off their standard Yorkie. Mars bars look smaller too. Is everything, apart from my belly, getting smaller ?

My name is URL

RIP and condolences to their families

People should be ashamed of themselves for making crisp jokes. Is this what AH has come to?

According to a statement from Walkers given to the programme, the Deep Ridge crisps have "a deeper ridge than most crisps, making them susceptible to breakages and so they are put in slightly larger packs and given some cushioning, which may give the impression of low bag fill."

Dirty talk...

McCluskeyMartin @EmmaBunton what kinda crisps are you loving? Have you tried walkers deep ridge they are amazing

Proof that twitter is important.

Love the Steak ones, the Cheese & Onion ones make my eyes water when I open the bag and I haven't tried the Salt & Vinegar, which is a flavour that has absolutely no place in the crisp world.

Thinly filled crisp bag thread.

14 crisps.

Back when I were a lad, bags of crisps were empty.
Just a photo of a crisp inside. And we were grateful for it !!

I'll buy any crisps that taste nice. Walkers are one of the few English brands that taste nice. We've come a long way since those Smiths cardboard shards were the only UK crisps you could get.

I worked weeks at a time until I died of misery, we didn't have your soft southern 25 hour work days.

Youth is wasted on the young I tells ya.

the weight is written on the bag, next non-issue please

PizzamanIRL

They're not packed by hand or anything.

B.A._Baracus

They are a fucking rip off.
We all know that multipacks contains less crisps. But FFS! ... its not like they cost 1 euro which you'd fully expect to contain more air than crisps. But you're paying a few euro for this crap.

I wonder do numbers shrink when placed in big bags? like 36 becoming 14 or something?

could be a job for the doctor

what about beef flavour space raiders? are they sold in ireland?
theyre only cheap and a small bag but theyre the sort of things can go through a few bags of.

and walkers has taken out all the fat/crap out of their crisps,thats what made them nice, now theyre harder texture from the oven bakedness, and not salty enough.

There were calls for me to be burned as a heathen last week 'cos I said I liked coleslaw with my fry-up and now this. I'm losing all confidence in what way I like my little treats in life

Next you'll all be saying I'm odd because I insist on having my turkey cold for Christmas dinner, while the rest of the family have theirs hot.

You're all weirdos

I like how Walkers compared them to multipack crisps, pretty much accepting they shouldn't be sold individually.

Wacker The Attacker

When crisp companies say bigger bag, they mean bigger bag. Not extra crisps

Duggy747

I had to laugh when I opened a pack of them and saw a paltry amount in them.

Won't be buying those tight-arse stingy crisp(s) again, I'll stick to me Monster Munch!

That's not even grammatically correct. You sound like a two year old who likes mashed spuds when you say that.

Being grammatically correct is always my first concern, especially when I post in AH.
