Wrong side of the Pennines entirely, Yorkshire lot are far too tight for anything philanthropic!

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

You should have quit whilst you were ahead.

Too many people on here are reading the label while not tasting the contents. A bit like when we're asked to vote. Give it a go. When you've stopped the half hour involuntary shudder, you'll never look at a Tayto (or whatever) again.

Once more, I apologise to anyone not capable of looking beyo...

This has been my favourite thread of the year. Genuine lols from countless posts. Congratulations to one and all. Let's never, ever change.

Late shout out here for Jacobs Crinkly Cheese and Onion Mini Cheddars.

Why are you bringing biscuits into the crisp chat?!

If you were around last night you’d have seen all sorts of snacks. Fish ‘n’ Chips, Pork Pies with Pickle, Cornwalls tradition of Pickled Eggs in Salt & Vinegar Crisps (which I’m now going to have to try), the almighty and not seen for years Branston Pickle Mini Cheddars, Ferrero Rocher. Also the champion of all crisps, pickled onion Monster Munch or Space Invaders are really not real crisps.

Edit: how could I forget but Ads has a theory regarding pickled onion crisps and early hair loss. :)


It’s worth scrolling back to where it all began with VillaTim and his views of Lineker.

Shame Footy isn't around to see the very organic off-topicing of a thread.

I reckon at least 2 of them would've been hospitalised by the stress of how off topic things went.

One would have known the stats on which flavour most Premier League winning players preferred.

I don't know if they're still a thing but I remember when a brand of crisps called Golden Wonder were introduced.  They were the mankiest, dirty things anyone ever put into a packet.  They were made from what must have been spuds that had been left to rot underground and when they eventually made it to the factory they must have bypassed the person/machine that cut out the eyes and chopped off the rotten bits and went straight into the fryer.  Horrible things.

Yep, someone already mentioned their chip shop curry flavour. I forgot they also did Transform-a-snack as well.

BTW, they are now owned by Tayto.

On the B&M having fun snacks topic from upthread, I popped in earlier for my Christmas beef dripping, and they had a knock off version of Scampi Fries which I'd not seen before.

Not as good as the proper ones, but perfectly solid for 6-for-a-pound.

And made better by not being padded out by the pointless Frazzles-alikes that come with the Smiths ones.

I didn't know any of that.  Donning tin hat, I don't like Tayto either.  The missus loves 'em.
