LONDON, UK. February 6th, 2025 - Spudos enters the Dragons’ Den on Thursday 13th of February at 8pm on BBC One with their unique crisps offering to see if they can tickle the Dragons’ taste buds. Spudos are unseasoned crisps that you season yourself with their 8 amazing flavours of Spud Dust. They’re UK produced and use home-compostable packaging and refillable tubs.
We eat 6 billion bags of crisps every year in the UK alone and most of those bags can’t be recycled and end up in landfill, the ocean, or being burned. Del Currie, Spudos co-founder, says “I started shopping more sustainably myself, but being a crisps addict, I was still sneaking off for a cheeky bag of crisps and feeling guilty throwing that empty packet in the bin”. So he decided to start Spudos with his business partner Chris Neal.
“I remembered getting Salt n Shake when I was a kid and feeling like a chef cooking my own crisps” says Currie. Crisps have pretty much been the same for the last 70 years, so they decided to do something different with their crisps while doing good for the planet.
With a Spudos crisp kit you get a big 500g bag of crisps (about 16 regular bags worth), some Shake Bags and their Spud Dust seasoning. You just add some crisps to a shake bag, sprinkle on your favourite seasoning, shake them up and enjoy. All disposable packaging is home-compostable with Spudos, so you’re not dumping a crisp bag that’s going to take 80 years or more to decompose.
How did Spudos do in the Den? You’ll have to tune in to find out.
