Daphne Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Because I've not had a good day so far and need cheering up, my thoughts have turned to my favourite nibble, which I have to ration or I'd be the size of a house (so does a friend of mine 'I only eat them when I have a drink' ). I still remember buying a packet of crisps most days, back in the day when they cost a sixpence. My all time favourite flavour was pickled onion (from M&S) but they don't do them anymore. I am a big fan of anything vinegary (except pickled eggs) so my next favourite is salt and vinegar. I don't like cheese and onion (not a massive fan of onion, that's probably why), and although I can understand why some people (like OH ) choose plain when faced with all sorts of weird flavours, personally I get quite excited when faced with 'mustard' (popular in Belgium) or 'haggis' (its in our larder, waiting to be opened) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I love crisps - I am a real savoury person Marmite or Worcester Sauce. I used to LOVE the Sausage & Tomato ones too, but they fiddled with the formula & changed it, much for the worse Herrs do some amazing Buffalo wing & Blue Cheese sauce puffs, which I buy from Amazon sometimes too. They are the best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jess1merlin Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Good old walkers plain for me or maybe chicken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Cheese 'n' onion here - or Ready Salted but not salt and vinegar I love crisps but save them for a treat as I could easily eat them every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 We don't have all those fancy flavours... But I looooove banana chips! Like potato chips but then made of banana. Lightly salted with a touch of garlic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 M and S did/do a lobster flavour.....decadence! Otherwise its got to be Cheese and Yum Yum...as its known in our house! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Ooh, crisps... I love them. I could easily scoff a giant bag in one go I love ready salted, salt and vinegar, ready salted & rosemary & sometimes chilli & paprika. Favourite brands are Tyrrell's & Burt's. Naughty Daphne... I'm longing for a crisp now and there are none to be found in the house Hope your day has improved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmashazzie Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hi Daphne our local crisps Tayto do a lovely pickled onion and deliver straight to you! I used to love Tudor pickled onion and their cheese and onion. I quite like Pringles sour cream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Ooh yes, Pringles sour cream are very moorish. I'm very partial to a packet of quavers too. They are the only cheese based 'crisp' that I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Think salt and vinegar Pringles are my favourite. When I was much younger we used to have orange and lemon crisps, I think they were ball shaped but can't remember, and I know they exist now - Fish and Chips - but they are nothing like they were in the old days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing cloud Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Salt and vinegar for crisps, though I also love roast chicken - sorry to my girlies , but there's probably no real chicken in them. Big fan of cheese puffs too, especially M&S ones. Good job I work in a town with no M&S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaret Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Love Cheese and Onion, especially pringles, but..could eat the whole lot. For Christmas I tried the M&S Prosseco flavoured ones... yuk, really didnt like those, they also had space dust for the fizz, very strange.

Egzandra Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Strangely enough, I have been craving some crisps for most of the day, but there are none in the house. My favourite is ready salted, but I also like chicken or steak (not sure of its exact name) and prefer Walkers, if we haven't got anything like kettle chips. Crinkle cut ones are good, as part of the attraction is the crunch, and I'm partial to crisps in a sandwich. Not keen on crisps (like prawn cocktail) that have a sweetish flavour, and chocolate covered crisps are a real no no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Pretty much exactly the same as Egzandra. My current favourite are Pops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Not too fussed but if I have a choice it would be the Salt 'n Shake ones - I don't like salt - which is why I'm not keen on the other flavours. Really greasy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Salt and shake with no or very little salt for me too Do like the odd Walkers cheese and onion too, and cheese Doritos. I loved Golden Wonder Plain Crisps in the 80's not the same now though, I used to crave those and Wotsits when I was a teenager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Having had a good think since my post earlier, I will admit to not meeting many crisps I haven't liked, with the exception of Prawn Cocktail flavour, which are the work of the Devil. But everything else I love - Walkers, Frazzles, Scampi fries, Cheesy Wotsits, salt & vinegar chipsticks.....I love them all! A few years ago Pringles did a limited edition Wasabi flavour - they were amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 There are some amazing flavours available and I do wonder what would happen with some of the more obscure in a blind testing!? Some taste nothing at all like the description on the packet (but then again...thats life ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Tyrrell's sea salt and cider vinegar. Pringles of almost any flavour; once I pop I really cannot stop, even when it's a flavour I don't like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Tyrrell's sea salt and cider vinegar. Pringles of almost any flavour; once I pop I really cannot stop, even when it's a flavour I don't like. There are certain TV programmes that we refer to as 'Pringles programmes'. Definition is something that is really strangely addictive....once you start you just can't stop!!! I always wonder about how they are made....they look nothing like potato! At least with crisps you can tell they were once actually spuds!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavclojak Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 1,Sensations "Thai sweet chilli" 2, prawn cocktail 3,twiglets 4, hoopla hoops 5,Pringles 'BBQ" Yummy yummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarrisonFamily Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 At the moment walkers extra crunchy ready salted are so lovely....they really are extra crunchy Also and sea salt and black pepper..... Now I want crisps.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatieB Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Unfortunately all of them and I have a new favourite each time I think of something Ive not had in a while If someone eats wotsits or quavers near me I will have to follow suit within a short time frame. The smells..... yum yum yum. Ones I always go back to are ready salted, kettle chips (most flavours) and the salt and shake. I am currently loving the mixems (is that what they are called - different shape crisps in the same packet). I really like corkers, don't know if everyone will know them but they are grown in the fields around me, the potatoes that is not the crisps! (good job I can't go and pick my own crisps). I am not a fan of the sensational ones mentioned above, I don't like the texture. Current favourite is beef and horseradish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
