    Salt and vinegar are the king of crisps and everyone who disagrees is clearly barmy

      The co-op fancy own brand salt & vinegar crisps are phenomenal. Vinegary enough to clean old brass with

      Yup. I could eat salt and vinegar crisps til my tongue burns and my eyes are watering. People can have their flavour of choice, but in a multipack, they’re my number one.

          Ketchup chips are government supplied staples in Socialist countries.

        I don’t think I’ve ever encountered Prawn Cocktail crisps with dairy or egg derived ingridients either, unlike Salt and Vinegar which is always a toss up for containing milk powder.

    My favourite of all time were Brannigans Roast Beef and Mustard. Unbeatable.

      They were class, to be fair. And for a while every pub in the country seemed to stock them. Now… where?

    It was the Brannigans Beef and Mustard but that’s just showing my age.

    Now?

    Prolly the Tesco own brand Beef and Horseradish

    Why?

    They actually taste of something. Most of the population are basic as as fuck and can’t handle flavour

    Canadian ketchup chips. Not sold in US because it hyper–stimulates women to hysteria.

    Kettle Chips, sour cream and onion. Hardly ever see it anymore, but that’s my all-timer. Everyone else is right about their pick, reason being I don’t want to share.

    I had to give up Takis, too “hyper-palatable” and addictive by design.

    That’s a difficult choice.

    But it’s very easy to pick the worst flavour - salt and vinegar.

    The best potato chip I have had is the most recent Lay’s promo flavor, Brazillian Garlic Sauce.

    Those suckers taste like a crispy variant of the mashed potatoes I make at home. It’s even buttery! It’s soooo good, and I hate that it’s just a promo flavor and not something they will keep around forever.

        If we’re talking standard Walkers flavours - prawn cocktail!

        Never liked salt & vinegar

    Roast chicken for me if we’re speaking generally. Salt & vinegar chipsticks however are easily the most addictive crisps.

    Lays “Wow” regular potato chips. Those things were the shit and no one else can argue otherwise.

    Also…from reading some rando qz article, they apparently could purge your body from some forever chemicals. What other flavor can attest to that!?
