Walkers Crisps Quavers Cheese Snacks, 20 g (Pack of 32)

Product Information

Oven Baked Sour Cream & Chive– Contains various milk products, including cream powder and buttermilk Tesco’s Finest range offers high quality crisp options but with a price tag that is significantly below the likes of Kettle Chips or Tyrells (unless they are on offer). If your dog eats one single crisp, this shouldn't cause them harm, but it's always worth speaking with your vet if you have any concerns. As little as one bag could cause sodium poisoning or pancreatitis, and longer term consumption may lead to weight gain and obesity. Can dogs eat Wotsits crisps? Spicy Sriracha– A new flavour in the classic range, we unfortunately have no idea what they taste like as they contain sour cream powder from milk Hurray! No prawns here, and Skips are vegan friendly (subject to the usual cross-contamination risks).

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 Sainsbury’s alternative to Doritos are decent value and are nice enough, if a little too prone to breakage in the bag. Akin to McCoy’s in flavour and texture, these sturdy crisps are perfect for vegans seeking the kind of flavour that is rarely available to people on a plant-based diet. A class above the standard Walkers crisps, these have a premium feel to them, with fancy flavours to match. 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

Shop Smiths 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. This will be of concern to some vegans, but more so to people with severe milk allergies. Many vegans, however, will judge Doritos and other products by the ingredients they contain, and on that front, there are some Doritos flavours that qualify as vegan friendly. See below to find out which ones. Crisp Name/Flavour

The ingredients contained in crisps are not considered appropriate for a nutritionally balanced feline diet, but add to this the lactose contained in wotsits, and you may want to steer clear.

Walkers fans have plenty to go on based on the above table of vegan-friendly Walkers crisps (assuming the vegans in question are fine with milk products being handled in the same factory). To be on the safe side, and for those who are interested, here are the main Walkers crisps that are not vegan based on the inclusion of animal-derived ingredients. 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. Made by roasting and salting broad beans, if vegetable crisps can be included in this category, then so can these. They are very crunchy and surprisingly tasty too, and with just broad beans, sunflower oil and salt listed as ingredients, they are one of the simplest ‘crisp’ options there is. Note that most of the supermarkets mentioned below also sell a good number of the crisp brands mentioned above (though the discount supermarkets such as Aldi and Lidl often have alternatives to the better known brands we’ve featured). Tesco Vegan Crisps Weirdly vegan!

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. 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. 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!). Pringles are particularly fatty and salty as they are produced using potato and cornflour that has been deep fried. This high quantity of sodium and saturated fat can be harmful to your pet, so pringles should never be offered as a treat. Can dogs eat Walkers salt and vinegar crisps? Smoky Bacon– Dried milk lactose again scuppers the vegan credentials of yet another Walkers flavour that would otherwise be fineOne of the better value alternative to KP Skips (which apparently may contain milk or egg based on the potential of cross-contamination), this option from Waitrose will satisfy many crisp fiends who used to love their Skips. Too much sodium can cause an electrolyte imbalance in the blood, and an excess of potassium may lead to symptoms such as muscle weakness, depression and heart palpitations. Outside of the nutritional concerns we outlined above, your cat also has very different mineral needs to us humans. Too much potassium and sodium, both minerals contained in crisps, has been known to cause alarming health issues for our feline friends.

BBQ Pulled Pork– Alas, these do contain pigs in the form of ‘pork powder’; interestingly, this is the only Walkers ‘core’ flavour that is unsuitable for vegetarians The archetypal crisp against which all others are judged, there have been some weird and wonderful flavours of Walkers Crisps over the years (Cajun Squirrel anyone?), alongside the timeless classics. In September 2004, Ghost-shaped Cheese Quavers were released for Halloween, and returned in September 2005. [4]

Disclaimer

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!) The name says it all. Nothing overly interesting to say about a fairly plain crisp other than they are decent value. As Walkers are the best-selling crisp brand in the UK (based on the most recent figures in 2019 provided by Nielsen), we have decided to make things simple and also include the crisps they offer that are not vegan.
