Doritos, Jack Link's jerky and Clif bars
The rest of the shelf. Doritos Nacho Cheese, Doritos Sweet Chili and the rolled Doritos Dinamita cover the tortilla-chip side, with Dinamita bringing Mexican-style chilli-lime heat.
For meat snacks, Jack Link's is the world's biggest jerky brand: dried, marinated beef strips that are high in protein, low in carbs and keep for months. They come in Original, Teriyaki and Sweet & Hot flavours. See the rest of our meat snacks too.
And for the gym bag, Clif Bar Peanut Butter and Clif Bar Chocolate Chip are the American oat-based energy bars hikers and lifters swear by.
Who American snacks are for
Flavour-variety crisp shoppers. If you are fed up with standard UK crisps, our American, Mexican and Indian varieties offer a refreshing change, with bolder seasoning and a much wider catalogue than UK shops carry. Browse the rest of our crisps and Indian snacks while you are at it.
Home-bar and pub-snack stockers. Beef jerky, cheese curls and crunchy Cheetos all pair naturally with a cold beer. Drop in a bag of Coan pork scratchings and the home-bar basket sorts itself out.
High-protein snackers. Jack Link's beef jerky is high in protein and low in carbs, while Clif bars give you slow-release oat energy. The macros are better than most of the savoury shelf.
Road trips and travel. Jerky, Pringles tubes, and sealed packets of crisps all travel well: a long shelf life and packaging that survives a rucksack. Grab a few American drinks for the journey too.

American snacks UK: frequently asked questions
What is the difference between UK Pringles and US Pringles?
The tube and the stacked crisp are the same worldwide, but the flavour range is not. There are about six flavours in the UK, while the US and Mexican catalogues run to far more, including Pizza, Hot Honey, Philly Cheesesteak, Mexican Street Corn and Carnitas Taco. The American versions also tend to use bolder seasoning. The flavours on this page are the imports you cannot buy in a UK supermarket.
Are Lay's the same as Walkers?
Yes, same brand, same owner. Lay's is the international name for Walkers, both owned by PepsiCo, but the flavour catalogues differ hugely by country. Walkers sells UK varieties like Cheese and Onion and Prawn Cocktail, while Lay's carries India's Magic Masala, Mexican Chile Limon, and European collabs like KFC and Pizza Hut Margherita. Shoppers import Lay's to get the flavours UK Walkers never carries.
Do you sell American Cheetos and Cheetos Mac and Cheese?
Yes. We stock the large 226g bags of Crunchy Cheetos, which also include Flamin' Hot and Jalapeno, and the 170g boxes of Cheetos Mac and Cheese, in Four Cheesy, Flamin' Hot, Bold and Cheesy, and Cheesy Jalapeno. The Mac and Cheese is a boxed pasta you cook on the hob, not a bag of crisps.
Are American snacks halal?
Most American snacks here do not carry formal halal certification. Brands like Pringles, Lay's, Cheetos and HERR'S have no halal certification on their packaging, though some individual flavours are made only with plant-based ingredients. Jack Link's beef jerky is not halal certified. Always check the on-pack ingredients if this matters to you, and for certified options see our halal sweets collection.
How long do American snacks last unopened?
Unopened, crisps, cheese curls and boxed mac and cheese usually have a shelf life of several months. Jack Link's jerky keeps for months without any special temperature and can be stored without a refrigerator. The exact date is printed on the back of each package, so please check there. Once opened, eat crisps and cheese curls within a week or two, and finish opened jerky within a few days.
Which American snack brands do you stock?
There are eight brands in all: Pringles, Lay's, HERR'S, Cheetos, Doritos, Jack Link's, Clif and a Red Band gummy. That covers stacked crisps, thin-cut potato crisps, cheese curls, tortilla chips, boxed mac and cheese, beef jerky and energy bars, most of them in flavours UK shops do not carry.
