Tayto better than regular Tayto?

05-03-2019 08:17PM

Tayto are German owned, but I've got the munchies.

Poor Uncle Tom · 05-03-2019 08:17PM

All Tayto, mate....

Their cheese and onion taste like our Tayto Snax (Which i don't like Snax) I like their pickled onion. I wouldn't say they're better than our Tayto but then again our Tayto doesn't rank high with me apart from salt and vinegar. I prefer meanies and ready salted walkers over both of them.

JohnnyFlash · 05-03-2019 08:23PM

No

What is the premise under which we must choose between the two?

Are lives at stake?

Will not choosing result in a financial crash?

Context. Context is key.

Meanies? You like Meanies?

Your taste buds are clearly bollixed

What are you on about?? Meanies are great!

I guess only the most refined of palets can appreciate the nuanced flavour of such a high standard corn snack.

Next you’ll be saying that Smokey Bacon is best Tayto option.

OldMrBrennan83 · 05-03-2019 08:36PM

They've more nice flavours up there (spring onion and beef & onion are savage) but our cheese and onion wins easily.

Plus their Mr Tayto is a loyalist. Ours is just a fiddler.

If Northern Ireland Tayto want to be better than regular Tayto then that's their choice and they're entitled to determine that for themselves. Equally if they don't want to be better then they can choose that without outsiders and papists sticking their nose in.

Anyway with Manhattans, Keoghs, O'Donnells (even though Tayto make them), and McCoys, there's no reason to ever consider eating either Tayto again.

I prefered them before over Tayto but the last time i tried them i didn't really care for them as they tasted a bit different. Years ago i tried Perrys Pub crisps they were called and i loved them but haven't eaten them in years.

That's not how you spell 'retarded'.

And it's 'palates', you oik.

The Rape of Lucretia · 05-03-2019 08:49PM

Being kept very well under wraps, but the 'Tayto Codicile' is the real reason behind the Brexit difficulties, delays, controversies, and impasse.

Its fine to discuss Tayto north or south like this. But unless the issue is resolved, then there could be Crisps Wars, the like of which the world has never seen. How to handle Tayto flavourings, packaging, can the name still be used in both jurisdictions or will it be Tayto anarchy, smuggling, counterfeiting, (what truly is a Tayto is being studied at the moment by the ECJ), etc ? Its mind boggling, and likely impossible to solve.

Following Jacob Rees Mogg ? - the European Research Group is just a cover name for a group of MPs banging on about how Walkers are better. That they are loonies is on the money nonetheless.

Baggly · 05-03-2019 08:49PM

King pub crisps are the pinacle.

Then single pack.

Then multipack. At a push.

Those Perry ones were very good in my memory.

Jeez, Alf, take a chill pill would ya??

Maybe throw on the raincoat, pull on the wellies and go for a stroll. Would do wonders for your current temperament.

Wasn't supposed to come across as angry as it seems to have.

Friend of mine had a box of Meanies once in college. Like a box for a shop...

Ate many a packet and haven't forgiven Meanies since

No bones broken but might I suggest a small donation to St Michael’s House or a similar organisation in respect of the language used.

I do understand where you’re coming from though. I had a similar run in with a box of scampi fries, turned me off the women for a month!

They had many variations of Monster Munch and they waved it in our faces

we only had one

if that wasn't a reason for invasion I don't know what was

NI Tayto factory has a 'secret flavour room'. This makes them better than ROI Tayto where they have no such hidden facility.

Beanntraigheach · 05-03-2019 11:36PM

Northern Tayto are a Protestant crisp for a Protestant people.

The Southern, Fenian variety is manufactured by Papish monks in incense-filled chapels, each batch sprinkled with holy water by a Jesuit priest!

Irish Guitarist · 06-03-2019 12:20AM

I've never tasted ones from the North but they can't be much worse. The last time Tayto tasted nice they cost 11 pence.

dd973 · 06-03-2019 12:26AM

I wonder if there's people of a loyalist persuasion who make a point of only eating Walker's.
