Doritos can fuck right off with this bullshit.

For shame, I have been eating MAN crisps for all these years!

Imfinehowareyou · 05/02/2018 10:19

At last! I'm so frightened of loud crunchy crisps and my arms ache carrying the heavy packets.

FairfaxAikman · 05/02/2018 10:23

Have I been eating crisps wrong my entire life? I use my mouth, should I have been using my genitals instead?

The good news is, Ann Widdecombe has come forward to support these gentle lady like snacks for us, no longer do we have to suffer the shame of potentially being confused with men every time we eat crisps from our handbags. Thank god, I almost couldnt go on a moment longer!

Girl Power!

Think I might go write a thank you letter to Doritos in my pink bic ‘for her’ biro.

Good god, I bet you all eat Man Chocolate like Yorkies as well? clutches pearls

Grin Lady crisps indeed... do they happen to come in a scented bag so that you can disguise the scent of said crisps? Heaven forfend a passing Man should smell your lady crisps!

eddiemairswife · 05/02/2018 10:30

At first I thought it was some kind of pre-April Fool joke.

Meowstro · 05/02/2018 10:30

Fantastic, so we can also be seen and not heard. What next? Our messy man biscuits?

Thehairthebod · 05/02/2018 10:31

‘They don’t like to crunch too loudly in public. And they don’t lick their fingers generously and they don’t like to pour the little broken pieces and the flavour into their mouth.’

What? I love doing all those things!

This has to be a spoof surely - wasn't their a 'lady ball' thing a couple of years ago which turned out to be a hoax?

AngryAttackKittens · 05/02/2018 10:31

So they'll be smaller, taste a bit shit in comparison, and cost more? Like every other "for ladies" product then.

PositivelyPERF · 05/02/2018 10:32

The “I’m a laaadddyyyy” brigade will be stocking up on them. 😆

FissionChips · 05/02/2018 10:32

I don’t believe it’s real !

MumGoneMild · 05/02/2018 10:33

The little broken bits at the end are the best bits!

PositivelyPERF · 05/02/2018 10:33

Lady crisps indeed... do they happen to come in a scented bag so that you can disguise the scent of said crisps? Heaven forfend a passing Man should smell your lady crisps that sounds all kinds of wrong! 🤣

RaspberryCheese · 05/02/2018 10:36

This is bullshit dressed in marketing. The absolute truth is that they want to sell a smaller bag but at a premium price. Thats the real reason.

Soubriquet · 05/02/2018 10:41

Ah jeez they will be low fat and diet crisps won't they?

Ereshkigal · 05/02/2018 10:41

The TIMs can have shit lady crisps. I must be a man.

McTufty · 05/02/2018 10:43

SMALLER? I eat more crisps than any man I know.

37KAT · 05/02/2018 10:44

I might get some for my male colleague who crunches and munches crisps next to me - might quieten him down a bit.

YouCantBeSirius · 05/02/2018 10:47

Apparently the packet will be able to fit in a handbag Hmm

Elledouble · 05/02/2018 10:47

Fuck’s sake. I’ve just angry-crunched my way through a packet of Hula Hoops. If I’m a man now I might start “adjusting” myself in public.

Slitherout · 05/02/2018 10:47

They haven't mentioned what lady friendly flavours they'll be offering and how many bag designs will be released. Which handbags will they match, will one match my Orla kiely or do I need a new bag??? My lady brain can't cope!!!!

GoodyMog · 05/02/2018 10:50

If they aren't going to crunch does this mean they are going to be stale and soggy? Who the fuck wants non-crunchy crisps?

NorbertTheDragon · 05/02/2018 11:01

The crunch is the best bit!

Mind you I have no problems eating crisps in public, and I don't have a handbag I have a rucksack. And my coat pockets are big enough to fit a packet in (was very pleased when I discovered this!)

Omg, that must mean I'm a man? Shock

I always call Prawn Cocktail flavour "girl crisps" to Ds1 as when he was little he took against the colour pink and refused to eat his previous favourite. Grin I hate them, which goes to prove my manliness!
