Eaters can pick up packs of six 25g bags for £1.45 in Morrisons, with each bag containing 124 calories.
Shoppers can't get enough of the returning crisps, which are similar to Walkers' Tomato Ketchup bags, that were confirmed as re-launched in March after being axed in 2023.
Posting on Facebook, one said: "As a teenager I loved these, my bestie bought me a case of the loose bags for my birthday. Best crisps ever!"
Another commented: "If they are the same as before they were delicious."
Meanwhile a third added: "Wahoo got one xx they taste amazing in a sandwich for the added crunch."
A fourth, posting a photo of a pack after buying one, chipped in: "Finally got myself a bag of vintage."
The Sun has asked Calbee when the limited edition crisps re-launched and how long they are on sale for and we will update this story when we have heard back.
It comes just days after KP Snacks revealed it was bringing back Disco pickled onion, last seen on shelves in 2005.
The tangy snack is being launched in convenience stores across the UK from August 27 with a 70g bag costing £1.35.
Meanwhile, Aldi has confirmed it is bringing back "addictive" crisps in a matter of months after they were axed.
Which chocolate bars have been discontinued in the UK?
Shoppers can buy the 105g bag of the Specially Selected Prawn Cocktail crisps for £1.05.
OTHER ITEMS MAKING A COMEBACK
Retailers often bring back nostalgic and previously discontinued items, based on customer demand and appetite.
Meanwhile, White chocolate Maltesers made a grand return to shelves earlier this year after a 10-year hiatus.
A 30g bag is currently available to buy in Morrisons for £1.05, while a larger 74g pouch costs £1.75.
Elsewhere, Opal Fruits, which were rebranded as Starburst in 1998, are available from Sainsbury's for £1.25.
Why are products axed or recipes changed?
ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders.
Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether.
They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers.
There are several reasons why this could be done.
For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes.
Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs.
They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable.
For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018.
It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version.
Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year.
Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks.
While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose.
In other retail news, Aldi is selling nostalgic childhood crisps for just 99p.
Plus, Tesco shoppers are rushing to buy a stunning "reduced to clear" item scanning for 40% off.

I'm a fashion expert – where to buy the best school uniform that'll last all year
SCHOOL may only just be out for summer but it's already time to think about uniform for the next school year. And where better to pick up all the essentials than your local supermarket? Here, Emily Regan presents the best new supermarket schoolwear modelled by Ruben, five, and Molly, seven.

RUBEN SAYS: 'I like these trousers the most out of all of them, they fit best.' MUM AISLING McINTYRE, A HAIRDRESSER, SAYS: 'I didn't know that Morrisons offered school uniform, so I'm really surprised with the quality of it. The trousers are a great length and the adjustable waistband has so many loops, which is a plus.' MOLLY SAYS: 'All my friends and I wear flares at the weekend so it's cool to wear them to school.' MUM HELENA MORGAN, A WRITER, SAYS: 'The flare shape feels more individual in style plus they have no uncomfortable flies or fastenings, which makes life easier.

These ones are comfy and not too tight.' MUM AISLING SAYS: 'The sizes come up a little big but I don't mind as they do have an adjustable waistband so they'll grow into it. It also feels like it'll wash well.' MOLLY SAYS: 'The top is really soft and I can undo the buttons all by myself.' MUM ELLIE SAYS: 'The fabric feels really good quality and I love the trousers – they're really thick, which means they'll be hard-wearing. Plus, the elasticated waist makes them easy to pull up.'

In some areas, you can talk directly to your school, which might be able to offer you clothing. Or, you might be able to get cheap garments from low-budget shops or charity stores.

'I usually shop the kids' school wear from TU so it's good to know they've maintained their great quality.' MOLLY SAYS: 'This pinafore design is different to any I've seen before and I think all of my friends will like it.' MUM ELLIE SAYS: 'Although these are really smart pieces, the buttons are quite stiff so Molly wouldn't be able to do them up herself.

MOLLY SAYS: 'This dress is so comfortable and I love the heart button zip.' MUM ELLIE SAYS: 'I also love the zip on this dress as it zips all the way down the front.

Katie Price's family air concerns over her weight as dad says 'it's not right'
Former glamour model Katie Price shared their concerns over her weight loss during the recent episode of her podcast Katie Price's family shared their concerns over the former glamour model's weight loss as her dad pointed out her thin legs during a recent episode of her podcast. The 47-year-old's dad was watching football when Katie invited him to briefly join in on her weekly podcast with sister Sophie. At one point, her dad, Paul, went quiet as Katie asked him what he was looking at. He said on The Katie Price Show: "Look how thin them legs are, terrible aren't they? A hand can go round them," before Katie jokingly told listeners: "They're obsessed with my weight." Sophie agreed with Paul and reiterated: "You are thin." Katie insisted she was happy with her weight, but Paul interrupted to say: "No, that's not right, it's probably that vaping crap." The Mucky Mansion star then revealed her mum, Amy, was also concerned with her weight. "You know what mum said to me last night? 'You must be bulimic'. I said, 'JJ, do I throw my food up? No, I eat'," the mother-of-five explained to Sophie. Her sister added: 'Mum called me the other day and said, 'I'm going to have a word with Kate because she's too thin'. I think mum saw a picture on Instagram and wasn't happy." Defending herself, Katie said: "My legs do look thin but I like it! Good!" Her dad quickly changed the subject to football and the family swiftly moved on from the topic of her weight. It comes as Katie sparked renewed concern over her appearance this week. She recently shared a photo of herself beside two relatives, taken whilst enjoying some time with her family, in a post on social media. The star stood beside her nieces in the snap as she rocked a white top, a grey jacket, black leggings and white trainers whilst posing with her arms around her loved ones. It was one of several "family time" photos shared by Katie on Facebook yesterday and she wrote in the caption of that post: "My beautiful nieces." She was met with concern on the platform, which comes after Katie revealed her weight last month amid people being "obsessed" over it. One person wrote: "Katie you look painfully thin." Another said in their reaction: "Her legs don't look real." Someone wrote: "Wow, not much left of Katie. I don't know if this is a healthy look." Katie discussed her weight loss in January, telling viewers she's 'always been thin' but gained weight when she broke her feet. She continued in the discussion on her podcast at the time: "Now I've realised when I was eating pasta, oats, or milk or anything, it bloats me. [...] So I've been avoiding stuff like that and not feeling so sluggish and tired after."
