Evidence?

 

A. They're made by Burtons, a firm primarily involved in biscuit production.

B. They're biscuits.

 

Other stuff that don't really count technically as crisps, such as maize or corn based snacks (look at the packet) get a by, as calling them corn-based snacks is the mark of a twat, Fish n Chips, and the lesser distributed cousin, Chicken n Chips are most definitely biscuits. You wouldn't call Mini-Cheddars 'crisps' so tow the line with Fish n Chips. :)

And Keyser Soze himself would be proud of the trick they've pulled with Space Raiders and Transform-A-Snacks...

 

Increase from 10p to 15p, then add a third to the packet size and weight and charge 20p, then keep the big packet and slowly decrease the contents until they're the same weight as the 10p ones.

 

Gypping fuckers.

Regarding biscuits, I notice joyless krauts Aldi no longer call their knockoff Smartie studded biscuit brand Disco Biscuits, Disco Biscuits anymore, and they've probably stopped lacing them with MDMA, too.

 

edit: and, in 'Have I got News For You' stylee, here's what 'The Grocer' Magazine have to say on the matter...

A bit of a swipe at the scouse in the article too.

Seabrook are fantastic - the beefy ones are my favourite and the salt & vinegar are so strong they make you sweat. I love the shit crisps like tangy toms, space raiders etc. Monster munch are great despite them being smaller than they used to be. But what about Pringles ????? Texas bbq or whatever they're called - I could eat a full tube in one sitting. And you can stick Doritos up you're arse - bloody awful.

OK

 

They are better than any crisps, though
