I don't know if anyone else has found these yet - Cheesies crunchy poped cheese in a number of varieties ( I have tried the cheader & the Gouda & would give them a big thumbs up).

20g packet - 0 carbs 10g fat (6 g saturated) 7g protein salt 0.5.

A good alternative to crisps 🙂
 
I’d never heard of them but have googled now. They’re vegetarian too. I’m just slightly wary of the idea of dried cheese :D I’ll definitely try a packet though if they’re not too pricey (or too moreish!)
 
Holland & Barrett - 99p for one 20g pack. Sound a bit to expensive on a regular basis really. I'm lucky in that my husband will share a bag of Walkers which we both normally only have with a sandwich and the approx 4 I have doesn't have a lot of impact on my BG!
 
I'm currently addicted to gherkins - weird I know....
 
Wow - far too pricey for a snack for me.

I do still eat crisps sometimes, just 14ishg carbs, so doable on a moderately low carb WOE, but maybe not if you are extremely low.

I think I have seen instructions - not really recipes - for making your own cheese crisps, just little heaps of grated cheese cooked. Not tried it, suspect timing crucial!
 
not the cheapest (my Partner gets them from wholefoods market with staff discount) but I would not say excessive
99p is around the same price as a packet of crisps, although on paper a packet of crisps is larger.

Walkers crisps £1.50 for 6 from Tesco, less when on offer!

99p is definitely excessive just for a snack for me.
