Review and Giveaway: Ten Acre Crisps and Popcorn

Win a hamper of Ten Acre Crisps and Popcorn

Vegan cheese and onion crisps? Surely the stuff of myth and legend? But, no, they actually exist, thanks to Ten Acre Crisps. I’d heard about these crisps but never got the chance to try any as they’re not widely stocked in bricks and mortar shops. According to myth and legend though (okay, various vegan Facebook groups), they’d been spotted popping up now and again Loch Ness Monster stylee in TK Maxx but on a visit to my local store, I returned empty crisp-handed.

Ten Acre Crisps

Then, a couple of weeks ago, while checking out the Facebook page of a new local independent tea shop (The Little Teapot in Ashford, Kent), guess what I saw? YEAH MAN, THEY SOLD TEN ACRE CHEESE AND ONION CRISPS. HALLELUJAH, PRAISE THE GODS OF CHEESE AND ONION CRISPS. The next day, I cycled into town and saw The Little Teapot wasn’t lying, they did indeed sell Ten Acre Crisps. They also sold Ten Acre Popcorn but I wasn’t interested in the popcorn – my sights were firmly set on the cheese and onion crisps. I took a packet of cheese and onion and also a packet of pastrami flavour up to the counter and, like a complete saddo, told the man behind the counter how excited I was to see the crisps and that I’d been dying to try them for roughly forever. He proudly told me his cafe was the only place in Kent that sold them but I must have looked like I didn’t believe him, as he then said ‘and that’s a fact’. Still, fact or not, I took my crisps (and hot chocolate) to the table and gave them a try.

They weren’t anything like I’d expected.

I’d expected a thin, splintery, Walkers-style crisp with a bit of flavour probably leaning more on the oniony than cheesy side but I was wrong. These are quality, thick, crunchy crisps – think cheese and onion Kettle Chips, if Kettle Chips made cheese and onion flavour crisps. Oh yes, these are a proper premium, hand cooked crisp that any cheese and onion crisp lover would be happy to eat, vegan or otherwise. I loved them so much, before I left the cafe, I bought another packet to take home with me.

Despite me banging on about the cheese and onion flavour for the previous 375 words, there are lots of other flavours in the Ten Acre range of crisps and popcorn – 17 in fact (at the time of writing), all with quirky names:

  1. These look great and such exciting flavours. I have cut down on my snacking but when I do treat myself I like to make sure it’s the good stuff, would love to win!

  2. I love these but can’t find them very often. The cheese and onion are amazing (especially as I’m vegan and don’t get to eat cheese and onion crisps anymore!)

  3. Ooh I haven’t tried these! I love that the market for vegan food is expanding so much! It’s just so easy nowadays.

  4. Would really love to win! I love 10 Acre Crisps and my favourite flavour is – The Amazing Adventures of Salt and Vinegar. I haven’t tried the popcorn yet but I would love to try Captain Theodore’s Lime and Sea Salt flavour!

  5. I’ve never tried Ten Acre Crisps and Popcorn before such unusual flavours I would love to try the Cousin Penelope’s Strawberry and Cream popcorn 🙂

  6. I have read lots of great reviews for Ten Acre Crisps and Popcorn so would love to try some for myself! Thank you for the giveaway!

  7. Great prize, as we do like to have picnics etc. Snacks for playtime at school, afternoons with friends watching DVDs etc. A nice treat, that will keep us all satisfied till mealtime.

  8. I keep on trying to reduce my gluten intake and fail spectacularly each time. These look delicious and I wish more brands would follow suit.

  9. Love crisps! Thats my biggest soft spot, i have to limit myself or the whole multi pack would be gone! 😮

  15. After 25+ years together there’s not much more I could do to get my crisp-mad better half to love me more – but a hamper of Ten Acre goodies would certainly get me lots of brownie points, as such! I so rarely get to treat him and this would be a great way to say thank you for caring for me all these years. Fingers crossed

  16. Oo thank you for a lovely giveaway ! ive heard of these but havent yet tried any of them so fingers crossed!

  17. Love a good picnic and haven’t tried these before, so will be keeping my eye out as perhaps there’ll be a bit more decent weather before the rain sets in!!

  24. I would love to try these, but so would my two student children . I wonder who would get them? Hoefully enough to share

  25. Mmm they sell them in my local cafe – when the chilli gets sweet is amazing! For some reason most companies feel the need to add milk to sweet chilli crisps which is very saddening for us Vegans! Fingers (and toes) are crossed..!

  26. Lovely giveaway, love that it comes with a wicker hamper which can be used afterwards for something different.

  27. I’m a big fan of thick hand cooked crisps and I want to try the “When the Pepper Crack’d” flavour. You can get peppery crisps almost everywhere abroad but they are hard to find in this country.
