“Taste like nothing ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Kailey21 on 02/09/2023

As a kid this was my go to. Didn't eat for a little while and immediately noticed the difference. They are NOT nice and spicy anymore, they taste like stale tasteless cardboard. You need to go back to the original recipe because this is awful.

“Bring Back The ORIGINALS!!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Pollock453 on 28/04/2022

What are you doing people?!! Anyone who has tried the original nik nacks (any flavour) will know that these are NOT Nik nacks anymore. They're just okay basically so wont be bothering with them again unless someone changes the flavours back and the size and the way they are cooked. I have just bought a multi pack and was quite happy with myself and now after tasting them I'm gutted that I will have to get through them. I may give them in to localfood bank. No spice or flavour, no crunch,no flavour on fingers when finished. It's the equivalent of oven baking a piece of KFC and only using 4 herbs and spices instead of 12. Never again.

“What's happened to them.”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Montgomerybl68 on 20/08/2018

I bought a bag of nice n spicy yesterday as I haven't tried a bag in years. They were awful. A lot bigger than before, very pale with no favouring on them. Tasted like cardboard. Ruined my lunch. Found a couple of smaller crisps in the bag with favouring on them but the rest were binned. What have they done to them.. er. I will never buy a bag again.

“What have they done?...”

★★☆☆☆

written by Mark_R on 24/11/2016

It breaks my heart to give Nice n' Spicy Nik Naks a 2/5, but they have been ruined in recent years. They are my life-long favourite crisps (yeah, I count them as crisps). In their "True Form", I could just about eat my weight of these beauties, but more and more I've been disappointed my bland, dull packets of betrayal. Please, whoever's responsible, get your act together and fix them! Sincerely, A loyal consumer.

“Recipe appears to have changed :(”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Blacklq249 on 15/02/2016

I used to love nice and spicy Nik Naks but after my last couple of packets I have purchased I won't be getting them again, like some others have mentioned they now seem bland and don't have the same spiceness about them and the texture seems softer, such a shame .

“Nothing like the old ones”

★★☆☆☆

written by ShanKit2 on 05/12/2015

These used to be my favourite crisps. Sadly, after purchasing and eating some today i realised what i used to love about them has gone. They used to be much firmer and crunchier, they seem to go all limp and soggy when you put them in your mouth. Also, the flavour has gone. Nice 'n' Spicy used to be my favourite, closely followed by Rib 'n' Saucy, now they taste bland and boring. Very disappointed.

“Yummy! Let down by one flavour”

★★★☆☆

written by Snyder233 on 03/03/2015

My absolute favorite snack is Nik Nak's Nice 'n' Spice! I am also a big fan of the Rib 'n' Saucy flavor. However, I absolutely loath the Scamp 'n' Lemon flavor. I think they are disgusting and they really let the other two flavors down. Bring back cheese 'n' creamy!!!

“Where has the flavour gone?”

★★☆☆☆

written by on 05/04/2012

Nik Naks 'Nice 'n' Spicy' used to be just that, Nice n Spicy, something to challenge the taste buds! However, I just purchased a pack today, and it was vapid. It was evident from the crisps (OK, 'savoury snacks') that they had visibly less spice on them after finishing a pack, you used to have fingers coated in a spicy and tangy powder, today, you can see the colour of the maize and can taste the substrate. Not sure if this change if due to changing tastes or economic reasons.

“Not how they used to be.”

★★★☆☆

written by on 07/03/2012

Flavours are still ok, but im not sure if they still do scampi and lemon, used to love those. Still good value at 6-10pkts for a pound in most discount shops. HOWEVER major gripe is nowadays due to assumed relocation of manufacturing plant (probably abroad) all the nik naks are hundreds of tiny pathetic little twigs instead of the huge finger sized twiglets they used to be. SHould be called Mini Twiglets for kids perhaps.

“nice and spicy nik naks”

★★☆☆☆

written by on 29/11/2011

As much as i like Nik-Nak crisps, the nice and spicy ones are not spicy in the slightest. They should not advertise the crisps as spicy if they dont contain any spice flavouring!! They are a waste of 60p because there is no flavouring to them. This has now ruined my day, even more than the rain has.

“Worth the trip”

★★★★★

written by Crispman on 09/09/2011

I live in Sweden and I have to go to UK when I am out of Nik Nak's. It is totally worth the trip. When I find them in a shop I usually scream my patented Nik Nak's screams. No, seriously I do other things on my holidays as well, but I have to eat some of my favourites while in UK. Miss some of the older flavours, but the ones I can get I eat. /J

“I first had a bag of Nik Naks about 10 years ago and...”

★★★★☆

written by on 19/07/2010

I first had a bag of Nik Naks about 10 years ago and enjoyed them very much, a local shop sold the cheese flavored ones at a discount and my wife used to buy me 6 packets at a time, they didnt last long, the cheese ones were my favorite, I dont really like the spicy ones. My son bought a multipack recently and I found there were no cheese flavored one's.
WHATS GOING ON WHY DISCONTINUE THE BEST FLAVOUR, ARE THEY MAD OR JUST BAD.

★★★★★

written by on 28/01/2010

I love the Barbeque flavour and scampi flavour Niknaks. But all the supermarkets in Letchworth Hertfordshire don't stock them they only have the Hot and spicey ones which i don't like. I have even asked the local corner shop to try to get me some........ I really miss my favourite snacks. Please help me find my favourite Niknaks

“Nice and Spicey Nik Naks are quite simply delicious....”

★★★★★

written by on 08/01/2010

Nice and Spicey Nik Naks are quite simply delicious. As you would expect from their name, they are both spicey and indeed nice. My sister prefers the Lemon and Scampi flavour. These are also pretty nice, a little less spicey and not too fishey in flavour.

The bags in which Nik Naks are packaged do appear to be a little smaller than other crips based snacks. However, don't be alarmed, there are enough Nik Naks inside to satisfy your pallette.

And if there isn't, just eat two bags!
