Get Ready to Dip into Deliciousness
With New Year's Eve just around the corner, it's time to stock up on snacks for your party. And what's a party without some tasty dips to go with your crisps? Hayley Minn tested a variety of Tex Mex dips from different supermarkets, rating them out of five. Read on to find out which dips are worth adding to your shopping list.
Aldi: Chunky Guacamole, Sour Cream & Chive, and Salsa
Price: 99p each
Aldi offers its dips separately, making them slightly more expensive than the combo option. However, the taste is worth it. The sour cream is thick and full of chive flavor, while the salsa and guacamole have a chunky consistency that adds a delicious twist.
Rating: 3
Iceland: Tex Mex Dip Selection
Price: £2 (or 3 for £5)
Iceland's dip selection is the cheapest when combined with other dips in their offer. However, the taste doesn't match the price. The guacamole is disappointing, and the sour cream lacks chive flavor. The salsa is alright but could use more spice. Overall, this one is a miss.
Rating: 1
Asda: Tex Mex Dip Selection
Price: £2.65
Asda's Tex Mex selection gives you the most bang for your buck with four dips for £2.65. The salsa and sour cream are tasty and full of flavor, but the guacamole and nacho cheese fall short. The guacamole lacks seasoning, and the nacho cheese isn't tangy enough.
Rating: 2
Waitrose: Tex Mex Dip Trio
Price: £2.15
Waitrose's Tex Mex Dip Trio not only tastes delicious but is also one of the cheapest options. The sour cream and guacamole hit the spot in terms of flavor, but the salsa could use a bit more kick. Overall, a solid choice.
Rating: 4
M&S: Mexican Style Fiesta Dips
Price: £3.20
M&S delivers on flavor with all four dips in their Mexican Style Fiesta pack. The nacho cheese is cheesy and spicy, while the guacamole and salsa have a hint of lime that sets them apart. The only downside is the higher price.
Rating: 4
Sainsbury's: Selection Tex Mex Dips
Price: £3 (£2.50 with Nectar card)
Sainsbury's Tex Mex Selection dips are a winner. The guacamole, salsa, and chili cheese all have a fiery kick, while the sour cream is flavored perfectly with chives. Plus, if you use your Nectar Card, it's even better value. This one's a definite favorite.
Rating: 5
Lidl: Sour Cream & Chive, Nacho Chilli Cheese & Salsa
Price: 89p each
Lidl offers its dips separately, but you get more sauce for your money compared to other supermarkets. The sour cream is packed with chives, and the salsa has a tangy flavor. The Nacho Chilli Cheese is the standout with a real kick from the jalapenos.
Rating: 4
Tesco: 4 Tex Mex Dips
Price: £3
Tesco includes a cheese dip in its selection, unlike some other supermarkets. However, the overall flavors were a bit disappointing. The sour cream and spicy jalapeno cheese were the highlights, but the salsa and guacamole lacked flavor and chunkiness.
Rating: 2
The Verdict
When it comes to Tex Mex dips for your New Year's Eve party, Sainsbury's takes the top spot with its fiery and flavorful selection. But if you're looking for delicious options at a lower price, Aldi and Waitrose are great choices. So stock up on your favorite dips and get ready to kick off the new year in style!
