I love pom-bears, but love Lidl's Teddy's Hit even more.
Unfortunately, I've never seen them for sale in the UK.

North Taytos, or South Taytos?
A very important question.

I quite like the tesco finest crinkle cut ready salted.
150g bag for £1.25 or so. The only downside is, the flavour varies (I think it's the freshness of the oil for that batch).

Tyrell's are good.
They're owned by KP Snacks, a UK based company, who also make:

I have some of the NFC/USB sticks Token2 make.
Which are neat, as you can stick the seeds on there, then retrieve them so long as you have physical access, and the passkey.

It varies by county too.
Cornwall does a shitload of swimming lessons, plus all the beach safety stuff (what the flags mean, how to spot/escape a rip, slip/slop/slap)

At least your water bill isn't the best part of £1000 so the company involved can pay dividends...

Sounds like a 6 ohm resistor solution.

It does depend on the instance. We don't use them for the UK one.

Imagine if they introduced a law, that if you had defaulted on your student loans, you were not able to get a passport.
That would reduce the number of highly skilled people leaving the country if it got really shit.

Years ago, I switched my mayo from Hellman's to Heinz, because the bottle design meant there was less transfer loss.

How the tables turn: I'm back on Hellman's for mayo, and they do a well reviewed ketchup too now.

(Hellman's is Unilever, a UK based company. Although they're apparently being shits to Ben and Jerry now...)
