About this deal

For novelty value, crisps that are square do give a few seconds of entertainment, but they are not particularly satisfying beyond that. The Salt & Vinegar Squares and the Ready Salted Squares are vegan friendly. Max Fiery Peri-Peri– Contains lactose and whey powder from milk, annoyingly as these look darn tasty! The name says it all. Nothing overly interesting to say about a fairly plain crisp other than they are decent value. Found in 1899 by William Morrison, initially as an egg and butter stall in a market, Morrisons have since become a little more vegan friendly! Another massive supermarket (the fourth largest in the UK), it is not surprising to see they have a solid number of own-brand crisps, but there aren’t as many vegan-friendly options as some of their rivals offer. Crisp Name/Flavour

The crisp brands that fall directly under the Walkers umbrella include the following: Walkers Crisps, Walkers Oven Baked, Walkers Max, Walkers Hint of Salt, Walkers Poppables, Walkers Bugles, Walkers Mixups, Walkers Tear ‘n’ Share, Walkers Crinkles, Monster Munch, Wotsits, Quavers, French Fries, Squares, Walkers Delo, Sunbites, and Sensations. We’ll go through each of those below and assess their vegan credentials. Both the Lightly Salted and the Sea Salt & Balsamic Vinegar flavoured Veg Chips are fine for vegans.Another very nice crisp from the Finest range, and again a decent value alternative to some of the branded options. The makers of Kettle Chips were founded in 1978 and produced their first crisps (or potato chips as they would say, being from Oregon, USA) in 1982. They have a factory in Norwich and over 90% of the potatoes they use for UK crisps are sourced from within 35 miles of that factory, which at least gives them something of an ethical edge. A class above the standard Walkers crisps, these have a premium feel to them, with fancy flavours to match. Now the food arm of the John Lewis Partnership, Waitrose & Partners actually began life in 1904 as a small grocery store in Acton, in west London. Opening its first supermarkets in the mid-1950s, Waitrose gained a reputation for high quality produce and one that caters particularly to higher end customers (it even has a royal warrant from the Queen and Prince Charles!). Available at the time of writing in two flavours (Beetroot with Sweet Chilli Jam, or Sweet Potato with Paprika), these have significantly less fat than other options in the veg crisp niche (for example, the Beetroot and Sweet Chilli Jam crisps have 14g of fat per 100g, compared to around 32g of fat per 100g of the Tyrells Mixed Root Vegetable Crisps. These aren’t quite as nice though!

They also sold their Pot Noodles brand to Unilever. Although they are not as significant as they once were in the crisp world, Golden Wonder still have a fair range of crisps that are available in various supermarkets. See which ones are vegan below. Crisp Name/Flavour Some time ago supermarkets came to the realisation that creating their own versions of well-loved food products could be a real money spinner. By creating similar (but often slightly less enticing) products, but charging a good deal less than the big name brands, supermarkets gave consumers the choice of prioritising brand or economic value. This is apparent across many different food product ranges, including crisps. Honey Glazed Barbecue Sunbites– Honey doesn’t pop up in crisps too often, but it does here, thus making these non-vegan

Ingredients

Those seeking a higher end alternative to standard salt and vinegar crisps will be pleased with these, especially as they are significantly cheaper than the likes of Kettle Chips. Tomato Ketchup– This will come as a blow to many vegans… the Tomato Ketchup flavour crisps from Walkers contain dried milk whey And, the good news for vegans, as we discuss in our Are Pringles Vegan? article, is that there are a good number of flavours that are fine for those following a plant-based diet. See below for the details. Crisp Name/Flavour These parsnip, sweet potato and beetroot crisps are tasty enough though they can make the fingers a little greasy. They are, however, robust enough to dip in hummus without breaking (usually), which is always good.

Note: The crisps in this article we identify are vegan do not contain any animals ingredients based on the best information at the time of writing. As ever, information is subject to change. In addition, some may have been manufactured in factories that handle milk or other animal products. Vegan-Friendly Crisps by Brand Some people love ready salted crisps, in all their banal blandness. The Tesco own-brand version does what’s expected of them and are good value. They have a handful of vegan-friendly own-brand crisps, as detailed below. We had hoped for a little more imagination from Waitrose, but they sell so many branded vegan-friendly crisps that their customers will not be left wanting. Crisp Name/Flavour Nostalgia plays a huge part in our perceptions of deliciousness. So, while I can’t help but feel that to try and do anything too much to a crisp sandwich would be, well, too much, here I have been inspired by one of the simplest, most delicious plates of food I have ever had.

Note that at the time of writing all crisps from Walkers are made in factories that handle milk, which could be a problem for some vegans, and certainly for anyone with a severe milk allergy. Crisp Name/Flavour Hurray! No prawns here, and Skips are vegan friendly (subject to the usual cross-contamination risks).

One of the first and arguably still one of the best of the premium ranges of crisps to appear on supermarket shelves, Kettle Chips have a superior consistency, crunch and flavour to many conventional crisps. Overall though, at least for the vegans who are prepared to risk the chance of cross-contamination with milk products, there is a vast range of crisp options available. In terms of the supermarket own-brand vegan-friendly crisp options, some fare better than others. So it stands to reason that these Marmite-flavoured crisps from Walkers are also vegan (cross-contamination risk aside), and also very tasty (if you are a lover, of course!). These are so good we thought they deserved their own entry in the table. Flavoursome and light, these popped chips compare well to others in the genre, especially on price. With a little less salt than the standard Ready Salted crisps, these will appeal to those who care about such things. They taste pretty similar.

Perhaps surprisingly vegan, any former omnivores who crave a bacon fix might choose these (though how close the taste is to real bacon, we really can’t remember!)
