For a crisp bag to take with a commuter coffee or packed lunch, start with a multipack of individually sealed bags rather than sharing bags. Compare the grams, fat and salt per bag for the exact flavours you would eat: a 22g Baked bag, a 25g reduced-salt bag and a mixed-flavour box answer different needs, and flavours within one box can have different ingredients and nutrition.
If you want to put one sealed bag beside a coffee or into a lunchbox, check both the number of bags and their individual weights. Tesco Groceries lists Walkers multipacks in 6 x 22g and 6 x 25g formats; ASDA Groceries lists Seabrook variety boxes in 12 x 25g and 20 x 25g formats.
Read the declaration for the flavour and bag size you plan to eat. Walkers UK lists 2.8g fat and 0.19g salt for a 22g Oven Baked Sea Salt bag, and 0.16g salt for a 25g Lightly Cheese & Onion bag. Those figures describe the named products, not every flavour in either range.
A variety box can cover different flavour preferences, but check each bag if ingredients matter. ASDA Groceries’ Seabrook variety listing identifies milk in Cheese & Onion and shows different salt values across flavours.
Choose the bag format first, then compare the declarations for the specific flavours and portions you expect to pack.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Individual bags | Look for a bag count and weight, such as 6 x 22g or 12 x 25g. Distinguish sealed individual bags from a sharing bag labelled with several servings. | I want to put one unopened bag in my work bag without portioning a larger bag beforehand. |
| Salt | Compare grams of salt per bag for every flavour in a mixed box. Check the actual value alongside any reduced-salt wording. | Salt matters to my choice, so I want to know which bag I am packing rather than judge the whole box by one flavour. |
| Fat and energy | Read fat and kcal per bag, noting whether a bag weighs 22g or 25g. Use per 100g figures when comparing recipes on the same weight basis. | If the crisps are a small accompaniment to coffee or lunch, I want the figures for the portion I would actually eat. |
| Ingredients and allergens | Check each flavour’s ingredients, allergen declaration and any ‘may contain’ statement. Do not extend a dietary description for one flavour to every bag. | Different people may take bags from the same variety box, so I need to check whether each flavour works for them. |
A sharing bag needs portioning if you want one unopened serving to take on the commute. Ocado describes the cited Tyrrells sharing bags as five servings, while KETTLE Chips says its Originals Box contains eight sharing packs.
For a grab-and-go lunchbox, check that the outer pack specifies individual bags, for example 6 x 22g, rather than servings within a larger bag.
ASDA Groceries lists 0.33g salt per 25g Sea Salted bag and 0.6g per 25g Sea Salt & Vinegar bag in its Seabrook variety listing.
Compare the flavour-by-flavour panel if salt affects your choice; one bag’s declaration does not describe the entire carton.
Walkers UK’s fat and salt comparisons relate to named Baked and Lightly products. Other flavours and bag weights need their own declarations.
Check the exact product and whether its nutrition is stated per bag or per 100g before comparing it with another multipack.
A vegetarian or gluten-free description does not tell you every ingredient or cross-contact warning. Walkers UK lists a milk-derived ingredient in Lightly Cheese & Onion; REAL Hand Cooked Crisps directs shoppers to individual packs for allergen details.
For an allergy or intolerance, read the exact flavour’s current ingredients, allergen declaration and any ‘may contain’ wording.
Pack formats and nutrition differ within brands, so use these ranges as starting points and check the exact product before choosing.
Tesco Groceries lists individually bagged Walkers multipacks, including 6 x 22g Baked and 6 x 25g standard formats.
ASDA Groceries lists Seabrook variety formats of 12 x 25g and 20 x 25g individual bags.
McCoy's describes its original crisps as ridged, a texture to consider if that matters more to you than choosing a particular multipack format.
Ocado lists Tyrrells potato crisps in sharing bags marked as five servings, rather than individually sealed lunchbox bags.
KETTLE Chips describes its Originals Box as a selection containing eight sharing packs.
REAL describes its range as vegetarian and gluten-free.

Six individual 22g bags offer variety in a smaller bag size than the 25g options here. Compare fat, salt and ingredients for each included flavour; the declaration for Oven Baked Sea Salt does not describe every bag in this pack.

This six-pack has individual 22g bags of one flavour if you do not want a variety box. Compare its own fat and salt declarations with other flavours, and check its allergen label.
Choose a multipack of sealed individual bags if you want to pack one without portioning a sharing bag. Check the count and grams per bag: Tesco Groceries lists Walkers 6 x 22g and 6 x 25g examples, while ASDA Groceries lists Seabrook 12 x 25g and 20 x 25g variety boxes.
Use per 100g figures to compare products on an equal weight basis, then read the per-bag figures for the portion you would pack. Walkers UK, for example, lists 96 kcal, 2.8g fat and 0.19g salt for its 22g Oven Baked Sea Salt bag; those values should not be applied to other Baked flavours.
No. Walkers UK lists 0.16g salt per 25g bag of Lightly Cheese & Onion despite its reduced-salt comparison. Check the salt declaration for the exact product you intend to buy; the NHS advises adults to have no more than 6g of salt a day in total, including salt already in food.
No. Check the ingredients and allergen information for each flavour, including any ‘may contain’ wording. ASDA Groceries identifies milk in the Cheese & Onion flavour of its Seabrook variety listing, and REAL Hand Cooked Crisps directs shoppers to individual packs for allergen details.
