I see them as I shop at Aldi. Have been tempted but not yet tried them.
Are they nice ?

Not really. Not much taste to them and seem to dry out too much when cooked

Chips should be plain so people can add what they like. And that should be salt and vinegar unless you’re a barbaric idiot who doesn’t deserve chips.

Vinegar...


A bit of balsamic is good on kale.

Chips are eaten with ketchup or mayo!

How about frying some regular chips and just sprinkle some salt and pepper on when done? I know it's a bit far out but could rather nice.

have a look at the price per kilo compared to the other chips then decide if you'd rather just put your own seasoning on.


edit... Aldi French fries = £1.39 per kilo. Skin-on fries = £1.79 per kilo. S&P fries, £2.49 per kilo.

"Salt and pepper chips" is a specific dish from Chinese takeaways with a lot of of spices, not generic chips with salt and pepper added.

So Aldi are stinging you an extra £1.10 for a dash of salt & pepper - !
Definitely a 'yeah, jog on' situation - !

They're sly feckers. Even charging an extra 40p for not peeling them is a scam.

If only they were Chinese salt and pepper as that's kind of why I bought them.

They are unfotunately pretty much just salt and pepper only

Think it was Italy, not thay I've been there since about 2005.
Belgium much more recently.

If your suspicious of foreign food variations, there are some french sausages i'd love to see you try.

Mayo and chips, made for each other!
Countries such as Belgium, Holland, Germany, Italy and even yes France acknowledge this truth to be self-evident and we Brits should get into step with Europe on this, it's the way forward!
