I first heard about these crisps on Foodstuff Finds when Spectre reviewed them last month. Still mourning the loss of Beef Burger Pringles I knew that I had to give these Marks and Spencer Beef Burger Hand Cooked Crisps a try. They are part of the Great British Summer food range and along with this flavor there is also a Fish and Chip flavor which Grocery Gems reviewed a couple of weeks ago.
The 150g bag cost me £1.49 and contains 5x 30g servings which work out at 150 calories each. Interestingly they are suitable for vegetarians and they do not contain any artificial colours or flavourings.
They smell delicious, just like a nice flame grilled beef burger which I will admit that I am partial to from time to time. Being hand cooked crisps they are lovely and crunchy but not greasy; I think I have explained the satisfaction that I gain from eating these sorts of crisps before and these did not disappoint. I don't know how they have done it but they really do taste like beef burgers. Looking at the list of ingredients didn't give me any clues as to what sorts of wizardry they have used to create this master piece and you know what I am not going to question it, I am off to finish the rest of the bag!
Verdict
Goodbye Beef Burger Pringles, hello Marks and Spencers Beef Burger Crisps! I can see that I am going to have a serious problem with these...very addictive!
