I'd be interested to know other people's thoughts on the ultimate maize-based cheese snack. Balls. Curls. Puffs. etc


Sainsburys Cheese Balls have gone downhill since 1987, when they peaked. Generic puffs and balls are everywhere these days, but the flavour is often poor - especially if you've never heard of the brand and there's a picture of a red cockerel or similar on the packet.

Wotsits can be hit and miss - sometimes a little brittle, dry and lacking in that delicious pseudo-cheese powder. And I'm sure they used to be bigger.

M&S Cheese Tasters usually guarantee a good flavour but the proportions are a bit small so you need more than one at a time.


So, to reacap: I'm looking for a cheesy ball, diameter around 250mm with a slightly claggy 'cheese' surface but with a cripsy interior.


Can anyone help?

I had a pack this morning! They're not particularly spicy. Not actually sure if they're nice, either.

Hedgehog flavoured crisps were a bit unusual. They found a gipsy gent who'd tasted roasted hedgehog to adjudicate as to the accuracy of the flavouring. And some of the money went to Saint Tiggywinkles the Hospital for Hedgehogs. Nice.

I miss those pickled eggs in jars on the pub counter. Not to eat but to look at while you were waiting for your pint.

    • I'm not on the WhatsApp group ,and he only appears every now and again but does look like he's needs a good home and is not neutered. 
    • Why are you so rude? What has race got to do with anything? That's got nothing to do with whether or not a description is posted on here  The OP said the cyclist was being pursued by the police. If that's the case, then the police will presumably have his  description, including skin colour  If you think you encountered the same cyclist and could have been seriously hurt, then tell the police. And you have lost your bet, btw. You know nothing at all about me or my background except what I have posted on this forum,  and are making assumptions based on what appears to be a total lack of understanding of the reasons for my posts.
    • Worth posting on local street Whatsapp groups? Guessing no info from door knocking.  Those def look like unneutered Tom cat cheeks. Would be brilliant if a rescue could trap and at least neuter and return if he's a stray. Ideally find him a home - he'll settle more when neutered. Poor chap xxx    HP  
    • Whilst 'try taking off the blinkers' is a really insightful comment, could you expand a little? What do you disagree with - the £2.925 trillion, the role of the bond markets, or the demands for investment in public services?
