I inagine so, be a bit random just to sell it in one store.

It's addictive stuff, bought from my local asda about a year ago.

Free sprinkle in our local chippy.

Cool will pop into asda at the wkend :-)

used to love this when I lived in Hull. if I remember correctly it's a mixture of salt, MSG, onion powder and paprika. whatever it is, it tastes awesome.

Anyone post a pic please so I know what to look for? Thanks

Thats the MSG

Lovely stuff on steaming hot chippys..... No doubt the diet police will have something to say about this though. Mega heat added

Taste like TGI Fridays fries?

This stuff is great, and I buy mine on Amazon. Never understood why it was called American chip spice - it comes from Hull!

Mmmmmmmm unhealthy.

Going to my ASDA after work in a few hours, another thing to add to my list! Thanks

So when folk say 'My local Asda' wouldn't it be easier to say 'Asda Doncaster' (if you're from Doncaster that is)

a lot of ambiguity on this site drives me mental would save loads of time and running about if folk named their towns in posts

from their website:

"Since March 2014 American Chip Spice has been available in ASDA in the hull area. This has been a huge success and ASDA are now looking at stocking American Chip Spice in more stores. Ask in-store to see if your local ASDA is a stockist.

Morrisons supermarkets are also an American Chip Spice stockist."

Ingredients: Salt, Paprika, Tomato Powder, Monosodium Glutamate, Onion, Garlic.

good of them to put in MSG

Nice one, I've been meaning to add MSG to my diet more, brings out a great umami flavour.

That's why you highlighted it, right?

According to wikipedia, "Chip spice, originated in Kingston upon Hull and mainly contains salt and spices (such as paprika) and also contains tomato powder."

I come from Yorkshire and every fish and chip shop there has a tub of it on the counter to sprinkle on your food.

looks like chip spice is to Hull what the Parmo is to Middlesbrough, ie. the further away you get from it's home town the less likely you are to see it at your local takeaway

Taken from here. I live in Hull and I can confirm all this. Very nice stuff. Some people get addicted to it and put in on everything..

Good research there mate, I like your style and dedication to the cause X)

Unless you have an allergy what exactly is the problem with MSG?

Some bad science a long time ago declared it toxic and people have believed that crap ever since.
There are very few issues with MSG unless you are sensitive to it (which the vast minority are).

Same thing with gluten intolerance.... that is pretty much **** as well unless you are coeliac.

must try this

None in Milton Keynes so I guess it must be a northern thing...:(

Where is your local Asda? lol

theres nothing really wrong with it, people claim it causes headaches, sickness etc, but there have not been any real conclusive tests to prove.

MSG can be naturally occuring in some foods, its essentially salt (sodium) and amino acid (glutamate), but the MSG in this case is the chemically fermented sugar (essentially) that isnt rly like the natural one at all. Its claimed to be addictive etc.. I think its more frowned on as a 'cheat' rather than actually being really bad for you.

HOT for a quid ;-)

For those who really love it and want to use it everyday, forever oO

6 x 2.5kg packs for £39.99!

First time i've heard of this- does it make chips spicey?

Anyway i have a craving for chips so im going to add heat!:3

Still quite expensive tbh at £10/kg

Surely the American use of the word chip relates to our equivalent of crisps?
