That's higher than I thought - will stick with McCain, thank you for checking!

The McCain rustic oven chips are 1.5 syns per 100g baked which is quite a lot for your syns

I tend to go by 125g frozen is around 100g baked

What's the difference between a rustic oven chip and an ordinary one?

The rustic ones are like steak cut chips with the skin still on x

In that case, I won't bother - quicker and cheaper to cut up a potato and pop it into the oven. I thought they might be something exciting!!

They're a nice treat though and definitely worth the syns for a treat over a regular potato

I find them really good because a bag of potatoes will go bad before i get chance to eat them all so it's super handy to have them in the freezer, i also buy frozen mash which is also 1 syn x
