Can I Have Snackrite Crisps On Slimming World? Are They High In Syns?

If you fancy a pack of Snackrite crisps on the slimming world plan, you can happily indulge in a pack or two as long as these crisps fit within your 15 syn daily allowance, but how many syns do they have on the SW plan?

Snackrite crisps have around 6.5 syns for a 25g pack, making them quite high in syns for a small portion, we, therefore, suggest having these crisps in moderation.

We've discussed in more detail below in our syn guide why Snackrite crisps are so high in syns, syn values of them and some low syn alternative crisps for snacking.

Why Are Snackrite Crisps So High In Syns?

At around 6.5 syns for a 25g pack, Snackrite crisps are very high in syns, taking up nearly half of your 15 syn daily allowance, meaning you can have up to two packs before using all of your 15 syn daily allowance.

Snackrite crisps can vary in syns according to the flavour and size that you choose, they get most of their syns from the fat content since the crisps are deep fried in oil. Baked crisps are a much more healthy alternative.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are syn values calculated?

Syn values are calculated using a formula based on calories, saturated fat and sugar content per serving. They’re not the same as calories — a product can be low in calories but higher in syns if it’s high in sugar or fat. Always check the official Slimming World app for the most accurate and up-to-date syn values.

Do syn values change?

Yes. When manufacturers reformulate their products, the syn value can go up or down. This is why we recommend double-checking with the Slimming World app or your consultant, especially if a product’s packaging has changed recently.

How many syns should I have per day?

Most Slimming World members work with 5 to 15 syns per day. Your consultant will advise on the right amount for you. The key is to use your syns on the things you enjoy most — whether that’s a chocolate bar, a glass of wine, or a packet of crisps.
