too much packaging
I should have realised but didn't, that these are individually portioned, which means a LOT of plastic packaging. I also didn't realise they were to cook in the microwave. I don't have one so removed all of the layers and put it in the air fryer instead
cannot read the use by date
Ive bought these in the past - quick and easy and cheaper than putting the oven on. Now Ive read a review about the short use by date so I checked the ones in my freezer. I cant read the date! Its not at all clear. Do I risk it or not?
Easy Chips
Easy to cook for chips.
Great idea
Now I’m not a great chip lover but on the odd occasion I do fancy them. These are ultra convenient with the added advantage of limiting me to a measured small portion (better for the waistline!). I actually think they taste better than the bagged oven chips.
Too many plastic packages
There are 4 little boxes. Each box is wrapped by a plastic package. Each box contain 100g of chips( small portion) . After cooking in the microwave, the chips were soggy and oily. It’s not for me.
Tasted ok but..
Beware of the use by date, I never check the dates on frozen food but when I got a box out of the freezer for my son I noticed in big bold letters DO NOT USE PAST THE USE BY DATE, so I had a quick look only to find that they were to be consumed within 2 days of delivery! So I had to dispose of them, the whole point of freezer food is that it lasts for ages not a couple of days. As it happened my son wasnt keen on the taste & I tried one & would agree with other reviewers that they do have a chemical like taste, I would put this down to the box as that smells the same.
