Has anyone tried these? I just saw them in my Boots magazine and it says they're baked and only 10% fat!  They have salt and cracked black pepper flavour too - my favourite. Maybe there'll finally be a safe crispy thing in the shops for us! It's not Kettle Chips, but it's something!

Just wondering if you could tell me what sort of crisps is OK to eat, I love crisps but seem to have a problem with most. Walkers Lite's are OK but want to try some others, any ideas.

Most of them are far too high in fat! Or they contain triggers...you can get baked Kettle Chips in the States, but not here.
Hence my excitement over the Quakers Seasons.

I love crisps and do have trouble with them, even walkers lites on an empty tum. I sometimes have a small portion of M&S Tortillas (lightly salted) or what about Roysters (T-bone steak flavour) they don't sell them everywhere nowadays, but they are baked and not fried, (haven't checked the ingreds. though)....any help?

I have tried the M&S baked crisps- they taste like cardboard BUT they have salt and vinegar flavour corn snacks in the count on us range that are lovely. I also nibble on their salt and pepper pretzels and always keep some in my drawer at work for overtime hunger pangs.
If you're a crisps and dip while watching TV person a weightwatching friend of mine makes homemade salsa (I have a recipe if you want it although I don't think shop salsa is very high in fat)and toasts pitta bread and then cuts it into crisp sized bits. Very tasty and more filling than crisps...

Thanks for your response, salsa would be good, but I think they have tomatoes in and I can't have them. But I like the idea about the pitta bread thing. Are low fat dips OK or do sometimes make things worse, I really could do with full fat as I need to put on weight now, but I know I can't.

I cut tortillas up into triangles and cook them (1.5 minutes in the microwave or longer in the oven) for dips. Just check all labels on dips for dairy or high-fat (which is not neccessary to put on weight!).
