    Barry’s Gloves nettle flavour are the greatest crisp ever invented. End of thread.

    Don't shoot me, but I like the multi pack Walkers cheese and onion crisps, something about them that is very fresh and fairly cheap too usually on sale for 1.50.

    Will always be a Tayto man though.

    Walkers Sensations Thai Sweet Chilli, or Keogh's Red Pepper and Sweet Chilli if I'm feeling patriotic.

    Love paprika crisps. Very continental. Hard to find here. Just like dill flavoured ones, a bit salty, a bit herby.

    Got some manchego and chilli crisps from Marks today. Delish!

    Anyone remember pizza flavoured Cheetos?

    I do like the odd Tayto Cheese and Onion sandwich on white bread laced with butter from time to time.

    I love a crisp and tomato sandwich ! People think I'm weird when I say that, but honestly, don't judge me until you've tried it. A bit of mayo is a nice addition. (Obviously it has to be eaten immediately on preparation and not left to let the tomato make the crisps soggy)

    I get you. Nothing like a tomato sandwich with added salt and a packet of Hunky Dory cheese and onion. But I take the crisps on the side. Bite of sandwich and scoop of crisps.

    Cornflakes. You can argue that they are crisps. You can’t beat a good bowl of fresh crispy cornflakes with cold milk. And you can have this tasty snack for breakfast, lunch or dinner, or even as a snack in between.

    O donnells cheese and onion/ballymaloe relish are great. Love an Aul bag of meanies on a long road trip, seems you can only get mega meanies now, which I don't really mind :D

    I think we are spoilt for choice in Ireland with great crisps. Most other countries only have 90 versions of 'ready salted' in shops. They're so bland, I don't bother with crisps when I'm away. UK is alright I suppose but walker's etc. are also an inferior crisp to tayto, king, keoghs, o donnells.

    Pringles have gone a bit downhill recently. I used to love sour cream and onion but they're lacking in flavour nowadays.

    I love mini chips, salt and vinegar. So hard to find them these day but I know one shop selling them.

    Lidl have a “version” of them. Not bad.

    I’m going to first add to the anti Doritos Q... taste is bland and the texture is absolutely crap, nothing pleasant to eating them...

    Haven’t had burger bites in a while, they’d be yummy, again the packs are ever fûcking shrinking though.

    O'Donnell's Cheese and Onion crisps are great

    Also from my childhoods I remember Crunch-Os which were hot dog flavoured corn snacks, they were lovely.

    Burger Bytes were another favourite of mine from the 90's, I'd ate a bag of them now if I had them :D

    O’Donnells Hickory BBQ

    Gorgeous with a sandwich, but of a kick to them.

    I just had a bag there now. There was a girl stocking up the crisps near the checkout and I just picked them up.
    Tasty is NOT the word! :D
    Was it Rancheros that used to have the little flavour sachet in the bag years ago btw?

    In fairness to us Paddies, we do a bloody good crisp.

    Tayto invented the first ever flavoured crisps..Definitely our most important contribution to world progress.

    Our newer brands like Keoghs and ODonnells and Tayto's Bistro range are the business too.

    For me the best were the King Leo Burdocks salt n vinegar flavour. That needs to be brought back immediately.

    Have to hand it to the brits, too, the Walkers Max Strong spicy yolks are top notch (which is weird cos normal Walkers are utter sh*te)

    There was one of those ‘sachet’ in the salt and vinegar discos. Guaranteed tears...in a good way

    Their smokey bacon crisps were the best by far, Tayto was muck in comparison

    Pringles are not crisps. They are biscuits.
