They are made by KP snacks, famous for their peanuts and a couple of other brand of savoury snacks. There are other flavours available from the Skips range but prawn cocktail is the most popular by a country mile so this syn analysis will focus on just that.

Are Skips worth the syns and calories?

Skips have a syn per gram ratio of 0.27 and a SynScore of 85%, which is among the worst in our list of the 32 most popular crisps. What does this mean? Well, simply put Skips are calorie dense through their ingredients – no crisps are healthy, we all know that, but some are more loaded on fats and sugars and Skips are one of them. Skips are comparable to Eat Real Quinoa, NikNaks and Golden Wonder in that regard.

However, taste is important and syns are there for a reason – if Skips are your favourite and you have the syns to burn then have them, but if you aren’t fussed about which crisps you want then our full list contains brands which give you a much higher return of crisp to syn – use the SynRank to find out which.
