We tried 42 different Christmas crisps to bring you the best seasonal crunchy snacks, including turkey, pigs in blankets and much more...
Everyone likes a nibble at Christmas. Although there's the glorious feast of a festive dinner, there's still plenty of opportunity for guests to get hungry – whether before or after the meal, or even in between courses. Crisps are a great, not-too-filling snack to tide people over while they wait for something more substantial.

M&S Milk Chocolate & Cinnamon Tortilla Rolls
Rating: 4/5
These crisps are definitely a 'don’t knock it until you try it' experience. The unexpected blend of sweet chocolate and warm cinnamon works surprisingly well with the salty crunch of the tortilla crisp. The cinnamon shines through the chocolate just enough to give a festive touch.

Another divisive option! These have a good crunch and strong curry flavour – they may not be to everyone's taste but will appeal if you like a spicy crisp.
