thats probably the worst i've seen, and looks more like potpuri than crisps lol

Have you guys also noticed how small multipack crisps are now?it's getting worse!

Tell me about it. So empty now. I could easily munch through a whole bag of them in a night

Aren't all packets of crisps like this nowadays?

Ha! you're all wrong, its Nitrogen in the bag not air, well it was until it got opened

The question wasn't what it's filled with, just why it's so empty

What size pack did you get... Thats a horrible amount of chips.

I once had a Flake easter egg that had a Flake with...well, no flake in it

it was just air

Did you enjoy the crisps OP?

DJMK4 · 12 Jan 2011 at 13:26

You sure there is no hole in the bag, and a mouse got in and had them ?

Complain, a lot. They'll refund you with more bags of air! \o/

@OP : you got a bad'un there all right. Normally they tend to not put in as much as you would expect but that is ridiculous. Make sure you include pics when you complain.

Buy proper crisps!

Kainz · 12 Jan 2011 at 13:35

Blimey, that is real poor. I thought I had it bad yesterday when I bought a large packet of Walkers Max only to find it half full and the rest air.

I've tasted those... they came with a toasty I bought a while back. Rather unique.

The bags are filled with air to protect them from when they leave the factory to being in your hands. But that bag does look a bit underfilled.

Complain. I did this to Burt's crisps when I received a bag of Nandos Piri Piri crisps with no flavour at all. 2 days later a box with 6 bags of Nando's crisps of all flavours arrived on my door. Tasty.

There are literally 10 crisps in a bag of monster munch now.

They should be allowed an inch of packaging on top of the height of the crisps in the bag. They are always banging on about saving packaging well there's atleast 50% that could be shaved off every bag of crisps.

Dear Walkers Crisps,

Your crisps are really tasty. When will you be making a full bag?

I had to ring up the Walkers customer care line earlier as there was a crisp in my pack of ready salted air.

I thought I was going to drown the other day. Fortunately I had a couple of bags of Walkers crisps which helped me float.

Just wondering whether the OP has or is intending to complain about this....

...Because I just did using his photos and am having free crisps sent to me!! Wow work must be really slow today..

The air inside the packet protects the crisps. Without it they'd have to package the individual packets in bubblewrap to transport them.
