If its suitable for vegetarians than why would it be wrong to eat them.

well technically they are halal. But due to the flavour and name of something that is haram and to not get accustomed to the taste, it'd be best if they were avoided. I mean psychologically & artificially, you're still tasting pig, if you know what I mean.

Smokey Bacon? Disgusting name, I'd stay away from them even if they were suitable for veggies.

Enough smoke flavoring will make anything taste like bacon. Smoked anchovies taste more like bacon than bacon does. I believe Walkers would attract a larger market if they simply called them "Hickory Smoked Crisps."

i wouldnt eat them due to the name - it just puts you off!
i wouldnt count on things that are 'suitable for vegetarians' to be halaal. my mum once brought a packet of vegetables with rice (frozen). you would assume that this was halaal or even suitable for vegetarians, but she had this feeling about them so she rang up 'Birds Eye' and asked them and they said no, this is not suitable for vegetarians because it has chicken stock in it.
also, kelloggs have 'halaal' written on their cereals, and some cereals are suitable for vegetarians but not halaal.
so dnt assume somthing's halaal if its vegetarian.

Smokey bacon crisps taste nothing like real bacon. They just have a generic kind of meat flavour to them.

Salamualikum.
^ True i agree with Fishy, indeed 'real bacon' is well different and tastes different to the crisps that you guys are on about.
I would suggest to go and ask a scholar about this issue instead of getting opinions of net.

The flavoring has never seen a Pig,-its just chemicals. The cooking oil if its vegetarian,should be ok.
Yum.

If there is nothing haram in them, then they should be okay. Just because it has a bacon flavor shouldn't change your mind. We eat bacon - turkey bacon and beef bacon. The same goes for scrapple and sausage.

yes, technically bacon flavour crisps are halal. But why would anyone want to eat something that tastes like something that is impure?

Because apparently it doesn't taste like it at all lol.
I wouldn't try it though. the name is a turn off. If tehy re-named it to Walkers Smokey
Apple Flavour Crisps then I would probably try it. :p
What's in a name? A Rose by another name would smell as sweet -Shakespeare
