About this deal

Fairly new to the market and hailed as being a healthier choice, watch out for the fat and salt content of veggie crisps. Given their popularity, we put a selection of crisps and snacks under the spotlight to show you how they measure up for fat, saturated fat, sugar and salt.

The deal comes after 11 weeks of strikes by workers belonging to the GMB union after they were offered a pay rise of 4.

The review of the Eatwell Guide earlier this year placed crisps and snacks in a sub-section outside of the main guide.

Seasonings and additives (such as sunflower oil) mean the brand we chose is still amber for fat and red for salt.This is because crisps aren't needed as part of healthy, balanced diet, and the main nutrient they provide is energy.

Pladis, the owner of Jacob’s and Twiglets, temporarily shifted some production to Portugal to ensure supplies in the run-up to Christmas after more than a month of continuous action over pay at the UK factory.

If chosen wisely, this option can be higher in fibre and often offers additional vitamins and minerals to its traditional potato counterpart. Also, watch out for varieties coated in chocolate or yogurt as these will be higher in fat, sugar and calories.
