Laura Stott tries immoderate crunchy supermarket offerings and gives her verdicts and marks retired of five.

Sun-Pat, 300g, £2.80

Market person is instantly recognisable with its bright-yellow lid. But what besides stands retired is its tiny size.

You get 40g little peanut food with Sun-Pat compared to rivals, yet it is much than doubly the terms of most.

If you don’t caput paying more, the flavour hits the spot, though, and bonus points for not containing thenar oil.

Tesco, 340g, £1.30

I wasn’t excessively excited astir however this looked due to the fact that it seemed alternatively connected the airy side, with an unusual orangish tinge.

But upon digging into the contents of the jar, things did improve.

Although the ingredients accidental it is made with 95 per cent peanuts, I recovered this was not evident to the taste.

Pleasant capable to eat, if a small dull.

RATING: 2

Asda, 340g, £1.09

Great worth – this was 1 of the cheapest of the options I tried.

The peanut bits were rather large, which gives a rustic, homemade feel.

But this besides means that it isn’t the astir blase dispersed connected the shelves.

I liked this champion erstwhile it was dispersed connected thinner crackers, due to the fact that it is truthful thick.

RATING: 3

Morrisons, 340g, £1.25

A spot of a bland and boring tub of peanut food – but it volition bash conscionable good to propulsion successful the trolley if you are moving retired of patience connected your weekly shop.

It conscionable doesn’t present the astir amplified of flavours. I dipped immoderate pome and carrot slices into it, which resulted successful a spot much crunch.

But I’m not definite I’d bargain this 1 again.

RATING: 2

Co-op, 340g, £1.70

One of the much costly options, but I did truly bask each mouthful of this delicious spread.

Created with 97 per cent peanuts, which person been roasted, it is bursting with a scrumptious, astir caramel-like extent of flavour.

Once I started tucking into this, it was hard to halt eating.

RATING: 4

Made with 97 per cent peanuts, on with sugar, lipid and salt, this is simply a cracker of a cookware of crunchy, nutty goodness.

The sensation was yummy – affluent and afloat of flavour, beauteous overmuch similar eating a fistful of crushed peanuts.

I besides liked that it came successful a solid jar alternatively than integrative tub.

RATING: 5

Maribel, 340g, £1.09, Lidl

In existent Lidl “tribute” style, precise akin successful flavour to big-brand Sun-Pat.

It besides narrowly edges Sun-Pat’s 95 per cent peanuts per jar, with 1 per cent much for your money.

It has a strong, nutty aroma and acheronian golden-orange colour, and packs a dense, afloat flavour erstwhile you wound in.

Very tasty and an fantabulous price.
