    Misleading packaging..

    That photo suggests there's a lot more variety and quite possibly a gooey middle. The reality is a very powdery, budget level, overpriced cookie..

    Tesco have them at €1.49 at the moment, 50% off.. Supervalu have them at €2.99!

    I lived in the States as a kid and had a big nostalgia blast when I saw these in the store. Very disappointing (even accounting for the clouded expectations of nostalgia). Lidl's regular old chocolate chip (or it could be chunk?) are so much better.

    I like them. They have a chocolate caramel crisp variety also.

    They are OK. They arent worth the price and taste like the ****ty cookies on Superquinns Euroshopper or whatever they used to call their own brand line.

    I've tried both flavours and I'd say Chocolate Caramel Crisp is better. Popcorn Candy Chip sounds better, just very basic.

    You can't even taste the popcorn because it's caramelised, which is a bit of a shame :(

    Very very disappointed in these. Dry, hard and overall rubbish

    I got a pack of caramel crisp ones in Tesco last week for 50c. I was surprised they were so cheap - now I know why, they're disgusting. Dry, powdery and almost completely tasteless. They weren't even worth 50c tbh.
