    Bacon Fries all day, every day, nine days a week.

    Hunky Dorys are too skimpy. You'd need three or four bags to reach satisfaction. Not worth all the calories.

    Total mismatch.

    Bacon Fries for me. They’re the pick of what’s left.

    How? How can she slap? Also, how can i choose?

    Both are almost perfect. How? How? HOW?

    Ok so, I'm going with Bacon Fries. Tayto C&O will handily win their round, and it'd be a bit boring with 2 C&O crisps, so i'm gonna pick bacon fries. BACON FRIES.

    I'm devastated

    Hunky dory’s. I like cheese and onion and hunky Dory’s are one of the best in terms of flavour. The ridges lock some of the flavour in.

    Bacon fries are not a crisp and if they were there would not be enough in the pack

    Bacon Fries
    Hunky Dorys Cheese and Onion, the ridges (ooer missus), the cheese (oooooer missus), the inion (you get my drift). Plus they have MORE in there than bacon fries, and you can eat them sober.

    Hunky Dorys, a titan of a crisp and versatile.

    Can be used as a regular crisp, in a sandwich, in a crisp and dip selection at a buffet, cat food substitute.
    They are an all rounder.


    The bacon fries are eaten to try take the taste away of the manky pint of Heino that you are trying to swill down and as a preamble for a late night takeaway.



    Hunky Dory for the win.

    Bacon fries: A truly amazing product if you like bacon. Excellent flavor and crispy to the bite, good soackage with a pint

    There's more Bacon Fries in a pack than there are Hunky Dorys.

    Skimpy Dorys.

    Hunky doreys because they are the joint second nicest crisp.
    The voting is too random. These times will suit public service workers. The private sector will not accept these results. Lucky I checked on my lunch break.

    It's a reluctant and tactical decision here,bit I'm casting a vote for Hunky Dorys ..............

    because although they are much inferior to Tayto C+O, I'd rather them to the abysmal little sticky dogsh1tes know as bacon fries.

    Bacon fries are grainy,sticky filth. Every dentists wet dream.

    Fcuk them. :mad:

    Lunch at this time? No wonder you picked Hunky Dorys...

    I am soooo going to spite vote Meanies due to the nefarious tactics of the Tayto empire :P

    As they say in France, "frites au bacon sont delicieux". Now, if you can disagree with that well-known ancient French saying, I don't have anything to say to you.

    Bacon Fries are my vote, they are the only choice. They taste "like bacon" as opposed to that bog-standard cheese and onion mess.

    My name is Deebles McBeebles. Commander of the Armies of the Crisp. General of the Pub Snack Legions. Loyal servant to the true Emperor, OMackeral. Father to a Buffalo Hunky Dory, husband to a murdered Burger Bite – and I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

    Bacon fries - a potato and meat meal in a bag. I'm off to Dealz to get 6 packets.

    Bacon Fries
    Vote: Smith's Bacon Fries

    Reason: This is a tough call. Bacon Fries just edges it because they are go better with a pint and have a moreish crunchy texture. Both are great crisps.

    Hunky Dory as the ridges caress the flavours and impart an explosion on you taste buds with each bite.

    They're better than hunky dory. Just taste better.

    The real final is the next round.

    Ridges me arse. These are crisps, not radiators.

    I like both but it'd have to be Hunky Dorys. For one thing, they actually are crisps but also, the smell and taste of a fresh packet is divine. Bacon Fries rot yer teeth.

    Tough one, but I have to go with Hunky Dorys cheese and onion.

    Bacon fries are great, but they lack the versatility of HDCO. HDCO are the best crisp for a sandwich, great with a pint, great alongside a sandwich, great on their own. Just avoid the multi packs because each packet contains one crisp. Bacon fries are a great pub snack, but they aren't even the best at that. They're a distant second to scampi fries.

    Bacon Fries

    Little. Yellow. Different.

    Let's face it, fries are are the snack du jour of the modern crisp connoisseur. What happens when you open a packet of Bacon Fries? Fragrance, friendship, flavour. It all starts with that unmistakable salty aroma, floating in the air. Then there is the joy of others as you deftly split the pack along its side, opening it carefully, like a scholar does an ancient tome, in a ritual as old as bacon itself, a bread breaking moment that tells everyone gathered at the table they are welcome to share. And finally, as you lift that crescent crisp, that delicate morsel, that lightness of life itself up to your lips and into your mouth you are met with the pleasure of perfection that is a Smith's Bacon Fry.

    Fries are the favoured snack of pacifists and poets, of philosophers and philanthropists. Of not just men and women, but the children too.

    They are my choice for the semi final and they're the choice of a new generation.

    Yes, the round after the semi final does tend to be the real final.
