Careful, Ed--I'm sure you checked, but a lot of Crunchips aren't vegan. There's a blog post from 2018 here (in German):
https://nochsoein.blog/2018/11/27/diese-produkte-der-firma-lorenz-sind-vegan/
The first list in the post is of the only products that are said to be completely vegan by the manufacturer (based on information from their suppliers), and the second list is of those with possible cross-contamination ('made in a factory that handles animal products').
Obviously, this may be out-of-date and products may be renamed for the British market.
There are other German crisp brands that make good crisps, but I think all of them now use whey powder and stuff like that in at least some crisps. No doubt completely vegan manufacturers will have emerged and will keep emerging, but the traditional ones have a decidedly mixed record.
These are the real deal. Available almost everywhere in London corner shops it seems.
