THE T BONE STEAK ARE MY FAVOURITE CRISPS AND I HAVE JUST HAD A PACKET BEFORE SEEING THE TITLE ON THIS VIDEO
the scampi and lemon were discontinued in 2008 and brought back in 2022. didn't often see nik naks during that period, always been a favourite of mine although I haven't eaten as many bags as I probably should have because I couldn't find the multipacks until last year or the year before. there are quite a few morish mild spicy corn snacks here, used to be the 10p golden wonder ones along with space raiders too
The other you mentioned, they're just tubes of wholegrain with the seasoning. decent enough but again I haven't seen them in yonks
Wow, they were gone for quite a while then,
I love the texture and flavour of the Roysters. My favourite crisp is Brannigans Ham and Mustard but they discontinued them a couple of years ago.
That's too bad. Sound like a good flavor.
Never knew that they stopped used to eat them often left a nice not taste in your mouth, I'd totally forgotten about you until I read your comment.
Richard is trying to confuse you, he sent you so much and now you don't know what day it is 😂
Plus we have gotten crisps in other boxes and we start to mix them up!
A day late but.The smaller bags for Nike naks have more in them than other crisps and are cheaper (the price has gone up £1.25for the big bags now) so you get a whole lot more if you buy 3 smaller bags for the cost of the big one.
Here usually the smaller bags aren't as good of a deal - cheaper to buy in bulk.
i never buy nik naks but i regularly buy the roysters t-bone steak crisps and have one a couple of times a week with a sandwich for my lunch , all the best for the week ahead
We sure enjoyed the savory flavor of the Roysters.
The roysters crisps that you tried, i just got a mulit pack bag of 6 yesterday, just at the end of the best before date for £1.00 working out to be about 17p per pack
That's a great deal!
You normally get Nik naks and roysters in our corner shop rather than the super markets and in the smaller 25g bags the nice n spicy are my favourite the £1 bags are the next size up then you get the multi bags.
The £1 bags have a good amount in them.
over the years, with crisps, being a satple snack, there have been many companies do them
through the 70s and 80s, the rivalry was really betweem smith crisps and golden wonder, and the later walkers captured the market and became the biggest.
My favourite crisp and you don see now was bovril
roysters tends to be a low budget cheaper pricer crisp, not by much if sold singular, but the multi packs are a cheaper alternative, depending what part the uk, and store they are bought in
We've been able to sample a few Golden Wonder crisps too. Roysters are sure good for a budget crisp.
I love all of these, yum! There's not many crisps or savoury snacks i don't like though lol :)
LOL! Same here!
I have not had Nik Naks for such along time... I can't even remember what flavour I use to have? I think it might have been cheese flavour. Paprika pringles are one of my favourites. Love your videos, guys... keep them coming ❤❤❤
We were wondering if they came in a cheese flavor since they look so much like Cheetos. Thanks Beverley!
Rib and saucy is my favourite flavor of Nik Naks
I think yours is the first comment for Rib and Saucy!
Both of those items are lovely.
They sure are.
Royster's steak flavour are one of my favourate
We can see why! Great savory flavor.
I love nice and spicy it is the best use to eat them all the time . Great vid 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Maxine, Nice and Spicy is a good one!
I do love a Nik Nak. Nice and Spicy are my favourites. I must buy some tomorrow. Not had them for a long time
Will you just pick up Nice and Spicy or other flavors?
@@FinnLovesFood I will look out for the rib and saucy too
Classic American behaviour more concerned of the test of their potato chips and their iced tea than the road
The Niknaks are a good snack while watching Utube with a beer 😅
Now we need to try them with a beer! 😁
Royster's T bone would be a huge hit if they sold in America.
Agreed!
Finn is such a beautiful furbaby 🐾💙 he is so adorable 🐾🐶
Thank you. We love him so much!
Scampi and lemon chips are one of my favorite 😀
I brought the rest of our bag as a side for work lunches.
I love nik naks
A lot of countries typically make crisp or "chip" flavours catered to what their majority and minority groups have a common familiar taste, for or eat in their day to day meals etc a lot of US crisp flavours are centered towards the Mexican minority population and what's generally eaten from state to state. Over here just like every where else it's also done we have some Indian based flavours of crisps too as South West Asians are one of many minority population groups here too.
Love Nil Naks, can't choose between my favorite 😁 although I was happy when they brought scampi and lemon back
It's tough to choose. All good in their own way.
@@FinnLovesFood as for the roysters, I don't like those. But I don't like any meaty snacks such as beef and onion, bacon. I prefer flavour that is tangy and not meaty.
@@andysawyer9949 I can see why you like the scampi and lemon then.
roysters great in a sandwich of bread and butter
niknaks i grind up in a old salt grinder and put on salads, sandwiches and fried eggs depending on flavor lol
Cheeky Monkey you always have such interesting ideas for using snacks and other food!
@@FinnLovesFood i had great patrents and grand parents always teaching me old school recipe's and tricks...
during the war nothing went to waste so my grandparents told me not even potato peelings, good ones were shallow fried and then drizzled with salt, i even tried it and they pretty good taste like ready salted crisps, so i ground some crispy bacon in a salt grinder added that to it and they taste great, you might want to try it i used peel from Yukon gold potato's but most potato peels work its all down to the frying and thickness of peel.
@@cheekymonkey666 would you normally peel a potato like a Yukon gold? It seems when we use potatoes like Yukon gold or red potatoes, we keep the peel on when they're roasted or even in a potato salad. We would more likely peel a russet.
Yes the Scampi and Lemon and cheese Nik Naks got discontinued. The cheese have not returned. Walkers (Lays) are trying to knock off Nik Naks now with crunchie Wotsits
Were the cheese ones a lot like Cheetos? We've had Wotsits, but not sure we tried the crunchie version.
i love all nick naks but my fav is scampi and lemon and roysters are amazing!!!
The scampi and lemon Nik Naks are great!
I absolutely love Scampi & lemon flavour 😋😋😋
Finn stays kitchen posted 😂😂😂😆
Nice and spicy are the best I love them over here ❤️
The curry flavor was a nice surprise.
also a popular crisp, cant remember the make, was salt and shake
it was a plain crisp with no seasoning, but came with a small blue bag of salt, you added the salt to your taste then shaked the bag to coat the crips, was my fathers favourite, sold alot in clubs and pubs, to make you thirsty, by more beer lol
and with salted peanuts,
Smiths I think did those.
Did the salt actually stay on the crisps? I could see it going to the bottom of the bag.
@@FinnLovesFood some of it did, but you just re shake the bag every once on a while. sadly dont see them to much, apart from the big stores
@@jillhobson6128 i agree.
Roysters is the best
I love Nik Naks. Haven't had them in ages. Reminds me of my childhood school-packed lunches. My favorite is the Scampi and Lemon.
Never tried Roysters crisps.
If you like very savory crisps, they're worth a try.
THAT IS WEIRD I WAS GOING TO ASK YOU TWO AND LAURA AND JOHN IF YOU HAD TRIED ROYSTERS T BONE STEAK CRISPS AND YOU POST ONE FEATURING THEM
How funny! Good timing.
There is a problem with Nik Naks..... they are very moreish and tend to disappear very quickly. You are spot on with the "It depends on my mood" bit they do fit across whether needing a bit of flavour, wanting a quick snack or just something light to munch on.
Can definitely see that happening! The nice thing about having multiple bags open is going from one bag to the other - still trying to decide with is the favorite in that moment. 🙂
The puffy Cheetos I believe are more like our cheesy wotsits.
Okay, I know we've tried Wotsits. Maybe that's what we were thinking of.
Roysters are made by KP snacks, they make hula hoops and nik naks amongst others
Back in the day crisps like nicknaks actually had a bit more seasoning. Like many now in the uk, probably to cut down on cost, they don’t have as much taste as they used to. Scampi and lemon is my favourite
I wonder, are they trying to reduce sodium too? We were just glad the rib and saucy wasn't over seasoned like our BBQ chips can be.
Hmmmm….sulking here because you both have quantities of Nik Naks on your table and I don’t have any left in my cupboards - finished off a multi pack the other week……….😱😭😭crying really big tears here, because I could realllllly realllly REALLLLLLY tuck into a bag right now! Not trying to put you on a guilt trip but of course - ‘points to the table’ hey ho 🤷♂️…… (I’m so mean to you …. 😘😘 don’t mean it really 🫣🥺😄)
If only we could pass some through the screen! Aww, we know you're not mean, just like to kid with us. 😉
@@FinnLovesFoodwooooh an arm coming through my tablet screen to give me some Nik Naks!!! 😱😱😱could be a scene from a food based horror film!! 🤣🤣🤣 and yes, I was only teasing… and as you may know, it is a peculiar British trait to abuse, insult and make fun of those we know/like/love the most - like close friends or workmates etc (in a sort funny “non threatening” or hurtfully rude kind of way of course! 😖)… and if a person (British) is unfailingly polite and “nice” to someone they might know (who is not a colleague F or F for example) it’s usually because they don’t like them very much and don’t want to get to know them better TO abuse or insult them!!😲😳🫣😄
Yes, we are weird 😵💫 but that’s how a lot of us “hang”! (ie meeeeeee 🤭)
Hi Tina and Ross great video I love the two nik naks but don’t like the scampi ones no thanks always gave them away unless my husband got to them first hope you are both okay x
I guess we're not too picky when it comes to crisp flavors! 🙂 We're doing well, thank you. Hope you are too. ❤
@@FinnLovesFood thank you for asking as well as can be expected x
Nice & spicy are so 😋 yummy 😋
I had them again today and noticed more vinegar flavor. The curry spice is a nice surprise.
@@FinnLovesFood the flavour is so moreish though 🤦🏼♀️ I only buy the small bags for this very reason 🥰
@@dawnsheard4786 helps to have portion control! 😀
Nice and spicy are like a sweet curry flavour imo.
Guys hope you are both well!
Nik Naks are Great! Not sure about the rib n saucy tho.... 🤣. Gotta be the Scampi or nice and spicy.... 👍
Lovin the videos guys. J
Hi John, how have you been? We wouldn't turn down any of the flavors! 😄
@@FinnLovesFood all good here Tina, looks like spring has finally sprung. I was playing a beer Festival over in Lancashire yesterday, the sun was shining and the atmosphere was buzzing so still coming down from that, there must literally have been hundreds there since they ran out of beer 🤣👍 I'll get a FB link to you when pictures are posted. You and Ross are looking really well, keep em coming Tina. B.rgds J
@@johnrainford9708 that sounds like a great time! We would love to see pictures. If you can't post a link on YT, we have an email on our about page.
if you are really brave could you try a hot indian curry?lol
How hot? 😄
@@FinnLovesFood what about a madras ?
@@robert-hh2ft hmmm, I don't think we've tried that before. 🙂
