Depending on who you ask, Marmite is either a naA much-loved Aldi crisp flavour is now back on shelves after a 12-month hiatus – but you’ll need to be quick if you want to get your hands on a pack.
The supermarket’s Specially Selected Garlic Bread Crinkle Cut Crisps were first released in 2023, and despite only being available for a limited time, they garnered quite the fan base.
In fact, this hybrid snack proved so popular that it was brought back again the following year, with shoppers begging for them to become a permanent edition.
And while that particular prayer remains unanswered, Aldi has now given the people what they want, dropping the flavour in middle aisles this week.
Proving the strength of the demand, a Food Finds UK Official Facebook post announcing their return racked up thousands of comments and likes.
‘I wrote an email last month asking for them to bring them back,’ Joanne Dobson commented, while Lisa Black added: ‘Best things ever! I’ve been waiting for them to come back.’
At £1.50, the crisps are described as ‘deliciously moreish’ with ‘the taste of smoky garlic, married with the hearty crunch of Aldi’s premium Specially Selected crinkle cut style.’
It seems many agree with the retailer’s assessment, including Emma Puddy who wrote: ‘These are a dangerous purchase as it’s so hard to stop eating them!’
However, not everyone’s convinced, and just like last time around they’ve proven a controversial choice.
Many were shocked by the news – including one who said ‘I just nearly s**t myself’ – but it thankfully turned out to be an early April Fool’s Day prank, so we can all breathe a sigh of relief knowing the bargains will continue.
