Is it me or has the salt content of Nobby's Nuts been depleted (doubtless thanks to the health police) to the point of making them inedible? KP on the other hand remain reassuringly salty. But for how long?

If confirmed his may be deemed a Modern Pub Annoyance.

I suspect it's a regional thing, but I can't remember the last time I saw Nobby's nuts behind a bar. KP seem to rule up here. I do like my salty snacks though.

Nobbys are the poor mans KP. Cashews for me every time. Never Pistacios.

My angle on it is that they are a complete waste of money. Go to a supermarket and buy a budget bag of peanuts on the way to the pub. The staff will never notice unless you are indiscreet about it.

Sometimes changing the flavour of a beer is a useful effect.

There’s nothing I hate more than people being indiscreet whilst gobbling on their nuts.
