Fuck the board, fuck the football tyrells are the gods of crisps.

I had a bag of Ludlow sausage and mustard at lunch, and now am eating sea salt and cider vinegar.

Such a fatty.

Kettle chips are decent.

I can't match your crisp count, but I had half and XXL Papa J's fully loaded, a portion of Jalapeño poppers and a portion of wedges.

Fat. You don't know the meaning of fat.

Oh and I was going to post what my favourite crisps were.  I guess it depends. Marmite for your bog standard. Kettle for your gormet. And sour cream and chive Pringles for your cocaine laced mega addictive category 1 crisps.

Though can burn your hands if not carefull.

Crisps generally are pretty good.

Is it true they do mint chocolate Pringles now? That is just wrong.

If the slogan for Pringles is 'once you pop you can't stop' is true then why do they have a resealable lid?

(thanks Stephen Merchant)

Yes though they have real trouble when baking them.

Prawn Pringles are gorgeous

Walkers Smokey Bacon for me. If I go a bit up market then its Nandos Chicken.

Aldi cheese puffs.

Aldi Ham and Mustard or McCoys cheddar

Frazzles, Chipsticks, Kettle, Tyrells, Brannigans, all winners. Though, I never buy crisps.

I've just had a packet of Hula Hoops

What about big bags people. Not the small crappy ones.

Aldi H & M was a big bag

Any salt and vinegar combo.
Drop in a couple of pickled shallots. . jobs a good un.

It's all about pickled onion monster munch, the rest can just fuck off.

Asides from walkers salt and vinegar. Oh, and definitely prawn cocktail wavers.

Plump a pickled egg in and you're sorted with any flavour  :I'm a complete mofleakin Deak

The wife bought some salt and vinegar skips the other day. That is just silly.

i fucking love crisps...a little too  much sometimes. Not a fan of ready salted though.

I think I could live on crisps.  Particular favourites being:

Chipsticks, Walkers Prawn Cocktail, Cheese & Onion and Salt & Vinegar, Spicy Tomato Wheat Crunchies, Pickled Onion Monster Munch and Salt & Vinegar Discos or French Fries.

Lidl do some nice kettle chip type crisps, cracked peppercorn etc

Not many that arent favourites then  :eek:

Next time just list the one(s) you don't like!

I did say I could live on crisps  :)

Seabrook crisps are quite tasty and i am not even slightly northern.

This, if they were crisps.....

Kettle Chips for crisps.

I used to love Frazzles but thanks to Coeliac can no longer eat them. Kettle crisps are decent, especially cheddar flavour.

McCoys Oriental Rib

Cheese flavoured moments

Scampi fries anyone?

Spicy Nik Naks

Aldi's salt & shake are awesome. As for Pringles it has to be either bbq or salt & pepper

McCoys Flame Grilled Steak.

It's all about the Cool Original Doritos.

Pringles aren't crisps, neither are anything else made of shaped starch. (I'm looking at you 10p bags)

i dont have enough time to reel off my favorite one, i dont think i have one.

Massive fan or Prawn Cocktail flavour. Nandos range on crisps are amazing. McCoys are up there with the best. I will pretty much eat any flavor of crisp i think.

Current favorites are the new-ish walkers ridges and philius fogg's range

Chili Heatwave for me

They're good but I wouldn't consider them crisps. They're more of a savoury snack.

In the same boat as Bombay Mix.

Legally true since 2008

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7490346.stm

Had 4 packs of Seabrooks Cheese and Onion crisps at YHA Beer the other day. They didn't stock Pot Noodles. Very nosh-worthy indeed. Yorkshire based.

http://www.seabrookcrisps.com/

A slightly more delicate ridged crisp than McCoys

I can take or leave crisps, I'm more of a cake, biscuits and chocolate man.


Pretty much the only crisps I actually buy for myself. I do also like Tyrells.

Spicy Nik Naks,lovely.

I've just tried Melted Cheese & Bacon 'Jackets' by McCoys.

Pleasant enough.

I cannot believe asda do not sell tyrells, so had to get some poor mans equivalent Kettle chips. £1.99 per bag or 3 for £3.

Outrage. I wouldn't have bothered!

Sensations used to do a mint and yoghurt mini poppadom flavour in a family bag, fucking lovely they were,can't seem to find them anywhere these days :no:

Mrs loved them but dont think they make any more  :doh:

Brannigan's Smoked Ham and Pickle.  Pub crisp extraordinaire.

Saw mint choc Pringles in Sainsbury last night.... I didn't buy.

Just wrong.

Phileas Fogg Sour Cream and Onion Taco Rolls are the dogs bollocks right now.

There's fucking Prosecco crisps now. WTF is that all about?

Plain with that little blue packet of salt if needed - preferably with a pickled egg popped in the bag.

Bollocks to all these Nancy flavours

I hate crisps. What I hate even more is people who eat them with no respect for others around them and no concept of how noisy they are eating them. I was in a quiet carriage on a train the other day, and this bloke was chomping away. I bet Hempleman Adams doesn't make as much of a din when crunching through the Antarctic ice!

when I eat my crisps at work I'm alway concious of how loud I'm crunching, but the slower you try to crunch the worse it gets.

Crunching, in the quiet carriage. The horror.

But it's the thin end of the potato wedge. Next thing people will be slurping their Americanos in there.

Waitrose jalapeño and cheese. Amazing.

Anyone had those Bobby BBQ mix crisps? They're a delight, finished a big bag off within 10 minutes other day

Uncanny this thread popping up. I've just eaten some turkey and maple syrup ones from M&S they smell and probably actually taste like cat piss

Found this thread just as I was watching Peep Show - "he's still stuck in the crisp age."

Crisps are basically shit. Only ones I've enjoyed recently are M&S ones with Wiltshire Ham, and I'd never buy them myself. Even Walkers etc seem to be getting more and more expensive.

If you get these in your view of crisps will change

Another noise and food thing that bugs me is when someone is eating a bowl of cereal or similar from a ceramic bowl. They clang and scrape their spoon against the bowl like they are playing percussion for Depeche Mode. Stop it PLEASE!!!

My missus and her family all do this thing where they scrape the spoon against the bowl load of times really hard like they're trying to get the patter off.  Drives me insane.

Moaning on here won't do any good. If you haven't got the balls to tell them to their faces, then buy them all plastic bowls and spoons for Xmas. That should do the trick.

I have told the wife many times.  A withering look makes her realise she has fallen back into bad habits and she starts behaving like a human again.

Phileas Fogg Onion and Sour Cream Taco Rolls.

Perfect.

Can someone explain what is the difference between a kettle chip and a crisp?

I cannot believe anyone hates crisps...

kettle crisps are batch cooked

Not sure how he finds the time....

Multi-tasking? Surely not.

Combining three of my favourite things.

Hobgoblin and steak.

Oh and errrr spitroasting  :zipped:

I love people that hate crisps. More for me.

Provocation..?

(http://goodtoknow.media.ipcdigital.co.uk/111/0000080a5/7b6e_orh100000w614/Marmite-crisps.jpg)

lob em in the kettle, come back 5 minutes later. easy.

I bloody love Marmite crisis.

Are they related to China Crisis?

Eh? You mean the China Crisis who couldn't perform at Old Town lights switch-on yesterday due to wind?

Tuesday night (1st Dec), Bad Manners play at the Vic, Old Town supported by Max Splodge and we all know what his band sang about, and it wasn't a ramekin of kettle chips.

<Mutley Mode ON> Gimme Gimme Gimme!<Mutley Mode OFF>

Buster and Max, jeez that could/will be carnage.

I'm going!

"Lip up fatty"

Back to the Phileus Fogg crisps again, polished of a whole back of Smoky Chorizo and Red Pepper ones last night. Amazing.

All these crisp lovers - no wonder we are a nation of lard arses.

Just to be clear, is this your work ?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-34969424

Nope, we are a nation of lard arses because most of the nation spends most of their day sat on their lard arse as opposed to getting of it and doing something physical.

I eat crisps and other things the pinko dread mongers say are bad m'kay? and I drink beer and other libations the pinkos swear are going to advance the date of the apocalypse.

I'm 5'10" 50+ and under 13 stone. I ride a bike and do physical things hence not being lardy.

Mardy maybe but not lardy.

I dislike the way crisps get stuck in my teeth. Unpleasant.

not strictly crisps but these are the fucking daddy

(http://img.tesco.com/Groceries/pi/324/0077975529324/IDShot_540x540.jpg)

Fuck, you must be a right muscly hunk then.

I'm 5' 10" and ten and a half stone and reasonably toned. Oh and nearly 26  8) 

26 or 62?

26.

Going on even younger  8)

When Golden Wonder state their crisps are "fully flavoured" they aren't messing around. I love a a good strong flavouring on my crisps and these are top of the class for every days crisps.

also cheap aldi(? or was it farm foods?) 'snackrite' crisps fall into that same category.

walkers are lame

I bought a couple bags of Aldi Specially Selected crisps over Christmas. They were disappointing.

My Mum regularly puts together a hamper for us at Christmas, this year there were some vegetable crisps - carrot, parsnip, beetroot mostly. I thought they were quite nice.

No crisps for me now though, back on the low-carb thing.

Golden Wonder are great, but a glaring example of the unhealthy hold supermarkets have on us, and suppliers that wont bend to them. Impossible to buy in a big shop up here, some smaller ones do them occasionally, I get mine in 32 pack boxes direct, or from a re-seller. The wife severely bollocks me if she spots them :)

My New Years Resolution was to not eat crisps, for two days.

It tested me to the limit, but somehow, heroically, I stayed strong.

Celebrated my achievement with a fine packet of Steak McCoys at lunchtime today.

I'd struggle with 2 days :-)

Recently had a (family) bag of Manomasa Manchego & Olive Tortillas.

Amazing.

I think I'd prefer a packet of quavers.

Packet of Cheese Moments for me please (and I thought THEY were expensive in the pub!).

The new extra thick 'slabs' are rather nice.

I'm going here in a few weeks time http://www.hipchips.com

I want to hate that, but i can't hate crisps.
Are you planning to take an emergency pack of monster munch, just in case?

pretentious bollocks, but it's your money! it's like the serial cafe, seems stupid but who cares.

Awesome, that's lunch tomorrow sorted

Walkers Chcken Crisps or Roysters T Gone Steak flavour OMG.

 :zipped:

The unnamed stronger stuff might be interesting, being in Soho..

This is a joke right?

I'll stick to my doritos and salsa thanks.

In fairness they know their demographic...

Prentious pricks with more money than sense.

Reminds me of this:

*cereal.

Just a novelty to check out. I'm hardly going every day...

Too late to go on the defensive now, you lah-de-dah git. Back to your stuffed quail's eggs on toast :)

Isn't it avocado on toast these days?

Ha ha. I actually eat that with poached egg. Without the toast though, as I am giving up on bread.

It's avo on rye, darling.

*shudder*

Toast!  Some lightly crisped Irish Soda Bread of course with a light sprinkling of Black Truffle (which as it happens is rather nice).  I like pretentious stuff - I managed to get drunk in Swindon's Waitrose once.

FFS you're really not helping yourself here, Sippo!

:gay:
