A man has appeared in court accused of stealing a packet of crisps worth £1.25.

He is facing a single charge of theft, whereby he is accused of stealing crisps to the value of £1.25 from Lakeside Service Station on April 30 of this year.

      Well we can do some detective work. It was £1.25 so not a standard pack of Walkers but also not a big bag of kettle chips.

      Now the price may be a clue, as that’s the price on a 72g packet of Monster Munch and we all know what the best flavour is, so the answer is:

      big reveal

        Good work, Holmes. And surely no jury in the land would convict for such an understandable crime!

      We’ll have to wait to see if he’s charged but I wouldn’t be surprised if this wasn’t his first savoury heist. Like a human seagull.

        the type of guy who asks for a chip and grabs a fist full.
