Default Soy Crunchies (Hearty's)

Found packets of these in my local health food store - Hearty's Soy Crunchies (sour cream and onion). They are THE perfect LC crisp replacement (similar texture to wheat crunchies, with only 0.3g carbs per 30g pack), but my store's run out. ANYONE know where I can get them in London??
These are such an ideal low carb snack!

PHEW!! Thank goodness for that! I was all excited and then saw the carb count. I'm really pleased I was on the wrong page of the site!

That's what the texture reminded me of - nik naks! Don't mind the small pieces... keeps a packet going longer. And good to smuggle in to the cinema instead of popcorn, IMHO
