French Fries– While the Ready Salted and Salt & Vinegar flavours do not list any explicitly non-vegan ingredients, the manufacturer suggests they ‘contain milk’, so these (along with the Cheese & Onion and the Worcester Sauce flavours that do contain milk derivatives) are best avoided for peace of mind

Most supermarkets have an own brand version in the free from aisle (2) The US now has a gluten free ‘real’ Oreo which you can buy online from ifoodsuk.com or American Fizz online (both very expensive – the supermarket ones are good enough!) Smoky Bacon– Dried milk lactose again scuppers the vegan credentials of yet another Walkers flavour that would otherwise be fine Utilising paprika extract and tomato powder instead of prawns for the flavour, these are a nice enough option for those seeking the taste of a 1980s dinner party.Crinkles only come in two flavours at the time writing. The Simply Salted flavour is vegan, while the Cheese & Onion is not. It might be stretching the definition of crisps a little, but if veg can do it, why can’t fruit? A nice alternative to the starch-heavy options in this article. 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

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 Oven Baked Sour Cream & Chive– Contains various milk products, including cream powder and buttermilk 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.Flaky salt: We used Maldon salt here, but any flaky salt will work. While you can use regular table salt, the large flakes are especially tasty. Look for supermarkets own brand “Cheese Puffs” in the normal aisle. Most are gluten free including the brands below… Loads of supermarket own brand regular crisps taste pretty similar (3) Seabrooks are a bigger brand that are also gluten free (2) If you want the real deal you need to get yourself from “Lays” from abroad – the European brand name for Walkers and comes with no may contain warning 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. Now branded as Walkers, though previously a mainstay of Smith’s, the rather novel Salt & Shake concept was particularly popular in the days before parents realised that encouraging kids to put extra salt on their crisps maybe wasn’t a great idea. Still enjoying a small niche market, there is little between these and the Tesco version (other than the price).

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. A cheaper and less robust alternative to Doritos, these are fine as party or barbecue fodder but they tend to snap too readily when used to scoop up salsa.

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 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

Once almonds are mostly dry, spread them in a single layer on the prepared baking tray. Drizzle the almonds with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. If you are adding any additional spices, sprinkle them onto the almonds now. 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!) Tomato Ketchup– This will come as a blow to many vegans… the Tomato Ketchup flavour crisps from Walkers contain dried milk whey There’s nothing quite like it so I’ve found two crisps with a paprika taste (very rare apparently!!) (1) Tyrrells Smoked Paprika (2) Well & Truly paprika crisps (love these!) Wotsits– It should come as no massive surprise that the famously cheesy Wotsits contain ingredients derived from milk and so are not vegan

None of the Kettle & More flavours are vegan at the time of writing (which should come as no great surprise for the Norfolk Pork Sausage flavour in particular).
