Spicy Tomato Snaps - Discontinued

[Ham_and_Jam]

Just had word from my trusted wholesaler contact that these are being discontinued by Walkers, with the last production run happening this week.

One of my favourite snacks since childhood and a best seller in our shop (and our wholesalers), I can’t fathom why they would drop such a good product.

Any other lovers of this product should get a few extra last bags, as they only have a 3 month shelf life. So expect them to disappear completely from the shelves before Christmas this year.

Thanks for the heads up. Agree they are top tier crisps.

I still can't believe Brannigans stopped the beef and mustard!

I've searched for these in two large supermarkets without success, maybe have nave disappeared already?

I have a retail business. I ve just taken the last 8 boxes from their stock today.

I ve been told they have 100 more boxes coming this week, the final batch.

I ll be getting another 30-40 boxes then thats it.

You ll just need to find an independent that stock them.

Is this a regional thing as I have never seen these crisps before.
Not sure we got them in Scotland?

Possibly never made them that far?

I’ve been buying them for the last 40 years, a childhood favourite

Never seen them in Scotland. We had Jaws tomato crisps in school in the 80's, but not seen them since leaving school.

Didn’t realise they did a dupe of Snaps. Will have a look.
