I'll take no criticism from someone who thinks beef is better than pickled onion. If you don't like the finer things in life, get back to your allotment and packet of Corbyn's Commie Salt and Salt flavoured sawdust.

I of course repeat my unreserved apology for anyone who may have misconstr....

Anyone who enjoys an overpowering salt and vinegar and hasn't tried them before should really try and track a bag down. They're like little sticks of dynamite.

They're genuinely like nothing else out there.


Yep, they're the low-key king of crisps. When we lived on the IOM the Co-op was our only decent supermarket, and they were my snack of choice for watching the Villa on TV. There's never been a saltier or more vinegary crisp.

My aversion to pickled onion is that it's antisocial. Like cheese and onion or the green pringles. If I'm not going anywhere else that evening, I'll be able to enjoy the more pungent flavours of crisp safe in the knowledge that the breath won't hang.

But the beef Monster Munch, its special. When the Rapture comes, God will sort out the yellow pack eaters from the purple. Not all of us are going to be saved.

They are the only crisps that come close to the acerbic mouth altering experience of S and V Discos.

For those occasions when only the mild aroma of cheese mixed with flour will do the trick.

Jesus fucking Christ. "Chardonnay vinegar?"

Someone will recommend something from Waitrose next, and then I'm afraid I'm going to have to report everybody on this forum to Prevent.

The Blues were right all along. Tally ho Villa!

Surely these should be considered

Yes we'll be talking Jacob's clubs next and then Snickers and then Matchmakers.

Still to crisps, not things sold in the same supermarket aisles

Can we take a step back for a second and reconsider some of the responses to those co-op crisps, lets not forget that until recently co-op was the only decent sized supermarket in central Erdington. It's expensive but not posh.

While hipster crisps should really get in the bin...

You should have quit whilst you were ahead.

Can't remember the name of it now but I remember seeing a film about the founding of the Co-op and I got the impression it was a proper working class set up. Rotherham, I think it was. Definitely didn't get posh vibes.

That's it. The Rochdale Pioneers it was called. That's why I couldn't remember it, wrong place.
