Hunky Dory cheese and onion. Solid crisp, the intensity of flavour swinging it for me, you regret it an hour later when your breath stinks, but they beat burger bites by a hair

EmmetSpiceland · 27-08-2019 01:20PM

Going to have to go with Burger Bites.

Those Hunky Dorys have been downgraded to the side of an O’Brien’s sandwich plate. You can just take them or leave them.

But with a Burger Bite, well, you eat one, crunch, you eat another, crunch, then you get creative and start to bite them into separate halves of the burger bite “bun”.

Tremendous fun. And tasty.

Hunky Dorys Cheddar Cheese and Spring Onion. I've nothing against the taste of Burger Bites, but the shape means that there's masses of unflavoured, indigestible 'material' on the insides.

We've had our ups n downs Emmet,but that was an excellent synopsis.

Credit where it's due.

The synopsis is that people want Tayto Cheese and Onion to win. We get it, everyone loves a bag of Tayto, and they are great in a sandwich. Widely loved, iconic etc etc.

It’s an easy and lazy choice though. There’s no ‘blue sky thinking’ taking place. There’s no standing up and proclaiming ‘damn it, I want a pickled onion flavoured corn snack to win this fûcking thing’.

I was totally with you until you mentioned corn.

False Prophet · 27-08-2019 01:22PM

Make it 7 -7

Dickerty · 27-08-2019 01:23PM

Hunky Dories all the way. Perfect on the side of the plate with a club sandwich...

Your denigration of the much beloved “corn snack” is worrying, C.

Over here, we call all bagged crunchy bits “crisps”. Some places merely call them by the most popular brand.

This isn’t a “potato chip” contest so please stop treating it as one.

Rumour has it an emergency hearing at the high court is seeking an injunction to prevent the 1/4 finals going ahead.

Apparently there are 47 co-signators on the court documents and reasons outlined to support the injunction application include, anomalies around the introduction of a wildcard round, mistreatment of chickatee representatives, absence of an image for Doritos Tangy Cheese in their 1st round match (which they lost), misidentification of the 1/4 final line ups, substantial evidence of attempts by a cabal of Salt Vinegar fan club members to vote rig, appearance of a pseudo-competition coordinator to deflect from shenanigans going on elsewhere, absence of a rigid schedule of match up times which would be adhered to all costs as an acknowledgement to the people risking disciplinary procedures or sacking just to help answer one of the nations biggest questions.

Frank Greaney and Paul Reynolds are both on site at the High court and at least one news report referred to a strange individual with excessively large thumbs chasing a tabby cat across the O'Donovan Rossa bridge who is rumoured to be the defendant in the case.

More later.

Hunky Dorys are much better than Burger Bites, which shouldn’t be consumed by adults anyway.

There's no adults here. What's your point?

Pintman Paddy Losty · 27-08-2019 01:29PM

Burger bites. Much more interesting. Hunky dories can have a very stake and bland taste when left out in the air as they often are in cafes that serve them on the side of a sambo

My point is Hunky Dory’s are better than Burger Bites.

Vote: Hunky Dorys Cheddar Cheese and Spring Onion

Reason: Burger bites are nice but Hunky Dorys with a sandwich... hits the spot.

Fr_Dougal · 27-08-2019 01:30PM

Hunky Dorys because Hitler ate Burger Bites.

Burger Bites win it for me. Can't be beat along with a bottle of cadet cola circa 1993.

LizT · 27-08-2019 01:30PM

Hunky Dorys because they’re a proper crisp. Burger bites are lovely but they’re mostly air.

I'm sorry but the tournament is about crisps. A potato snack. The strict interpretation of the law doesn't allow for the inclusion of corn-based snacks, and there are no amendments or codicils modifying that rule.

Again, I believe that the inclusion of corn-based snacks goes against not only the letter, but also the spirit of the Tournament. I will not be swayed on this opinion.

It takes more than the mere presence of carbohydrate to make a crisp, my good man.

King Pub Crisps- there has never been a better crisp

Let’s just crown Meanies as the rightful winner, with a Hall of Fame award going to Tayto Cheese and Onion.

Yeah, sure, why don't we just give up on society? Good idea. :rolleyes:

You’ll have to write a fûcking novella explaining why you picked Meanies over Rancheros.

In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I've been turning over in my mind ever since. Whenever you feel like criticizing Rancheros, he told me, just remember that all the people in this world haven't had the advantages that you've had.

JohnnyFlash · 27-08-2019 01:32PM

Hunky Dorys. An excellent cheese and onion crisps. Lidl Okey Dokeys are a good copy btw for the more budget conscious crisp eater.

FYI. Same crisp. Same factory

PARlance · 27-08-2019 01:33PM

Hunky Dory Cheese and Onion, the time for messing is over.

The best crisp for a crisp sandwich, without doubt. A real steady option on it's own as well. The chosen crisp to accompany sandwiches up and down the country. There's a bit of eating in them. Burger Bites have had a good run and they've done themselves proud but it's time to step aside.

Necro · 27-08-2019 01:34PM

Hunky Dorys.

Cos fcuk Burger Bites.

Cheaper ranker cousin of Burger Rings

snowgal · 27-08-2019 01:34PM

Mmmmmmm......
Ok since we are at the serious end of the championship now Im going to give a more in depth answer

Burger Bites: They're different, they have a distinctive texture thats unmissable. When you eat a burger bite you know straight off its a burger bite.
Plus its beef flavour. I love beef! Theres so many C&O varieties out there (not that Im dissing that, or my king btw, never!) but theres nothing there that has matched the humble burger bite, it has stood the test of time and deserves its place with the big guns.
I like when a crisp gets stuck to the roof of mouth, it shows abit of balls I reckon!

Im sorry mighty hunky dory. I only had you on Sunday and you were great, I really enjoyed you and you satisfied me. its not personal.

I'd do terrible things for a packet of burger bites at this stage of my life.

No sign whatsoever of quality snack food on my side of the world. Very poor quality crisps in Spain.

Isn't a burger ring what you get the morning after a late night of boozing and Supermacs?
