    It's a culchie thing. Probably because that's the only kind of crisp exported down there. The people that call all crisps Tayto are usually massive thick armed and thicker arsed girls in dodgy GAA jerseys that call everyone, regardless of sex, lads.


    No don't think it is.

    I have seen several Dub bints with cheap jewelery and cheaper tracksuits, with the obligatory arse antlers and open mouthed gum chewing and snotty nosed babbies whinging in piss stained buggys going into Spar and saying:

    GizapackerademfcukinTayrospleaasean a packeraJohhnyBlue. I'll payyatamarraluv.


    So its not just a culchie thing i would say.

    tayot are greasy and disgusting. I cant understand why people go mad for them. Seriously, whenever you talk to an irish person abroad its always the taytos and the club orange people miss.

    Tayto? Id rather eat my own.. well, not I wouldnt, but it would be a close call.


    Have to agree. Easily one of the poorest brands of crisps on the market altho having said that a cheese and onion crisp sandwich in fresh white sliced loaf and real butter is well nice and now I want one....dammit....

    Kettle chips are to tayto as Nuke was to Hiroshima.

    Almost every crisp is made from poTayto! That's a sh*t excuse though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,815 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    Tayto aren't even made by Tayto anymore, they're made by Hunky Dory's. :mad:

    But I agree with people above, King FTW!! :D

    Only thing I miss from Ireland is the tea, the tea here is way too weak
    Might I suggest leaving the teabag in a bit longer. That usually means the tea will be stronger.

    You'd think so, but no. It's impossible to make a decent cup of tea with the Lipton crap you're invariably served on the continent...spleagh...Just aswell I bring a 360 box of Barry's with me every time I go home.

    Yeah that's very true!

    Was trying to make myself a cup of tea in Paris and no matter how much I stirred or how long I left the tea bag in it still looked like watery crap! I then realised my mate brought barrys tea bags so I ran down to her room, legend :D

    hahahahahahahaha How do I get across the point that i started crying with laughter reading that? tears! honest to god tears! The others in the office are giving me wierd looks but I can't help laughing, i'm still laughing writing this.

    my claim to fame: My great Uncle(my Dad's uncle) founded Tayto crisps. He's the inventor of the flavour cheese and onion too apparently.

    Without a doubt the best thing about Letterkenny is that and the banana flavoured one too!

    I have lots of Polish mates. Sound people and hard workers.

    Shame on you. Mr Tayto would be turning in his ridge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,537 ✭✭✭✭rossie1977


    it shows the popularity of a brand when instead of calling the product by its name they refer to the brand. I hadn't realised that Tayto had gained that much popularity here yet for that to happen but you never know.

    classic examples of brand identification of course is hoover which most people use to describe the vaccum cleaner and coke to identify the cola market

    And who owns Lyons tea, yep Lipton....

    People calling any game console a PlayStation is much worse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,875 ✭✭✭ShoulderChip


    I did a primary school project on tayto hoping they would send me free taytos,
    all they sent me was...
    wait for it...

    I was a kid for fuck sake

    No it's not, it's the same.

    People used to call all consoles a Nintendo before Playstation got popular.

    I disagree and that's all that matters.

    Yeah it's impossible to find nice tea in France! Was over there with the OH for Christmas and nobody even had a kettle, let alone a decent tea bag...

    I love taytos too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,944 ✭✭✭Jay P

    I am a 'culchie' (actually went to school in the town where the name comes from) and I do not particularly like Taytos.

    Give me a pack of Walkers cheese and onion any day (developed a taste for these years ago in the UK before they were sold here), yum yum.

    Then again, after weighing myself about 2 weeks ago, I'm afraid the crisps and chocolate have been removed from my diet so moot point really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,035 ✭✭✭GhostInTheRuins


    It's a bogger thing. The only people I know that call all crisps Taytos are big thick boggers, yes, big thick boggers.
