Best Cheese and Onion crisps?

Golden Wonders were quite nice back in the 90s. Im assuming the golden wonders in the shops at the moment are the same brand? They seemed to disappear for years. I like King too and King Jackets.

However tayto bistro are lovely

King.

I'm partial to the Kettle Sweet Chilli and Sour Cream also.

Not into Smokey Bacon at all.

Wouldn't be mad into Salt & Vinegar but got into the habit of mixing bags of Cheese & Onion with Salt & Vinegar to surprise my palate.

This is what i do Ted. I get a Cheese and Onion and a Salt and Vinegar, and i eat them both in the one go

Can't believe the amount of people not voting for Tayto on this one, would have thought it's pretty much accepted that they're the best C&O there is, no debate needed. Philistines the lot of ye! That said, Hunky Dory Buffalo crisps are fecking lovely too.

Shocker to think we all have bleedin' taste buds!!

Yeah, but that's given me a great idea. Cheese & onion crisps as a pizza topping! Or has it been done already?

ricero · 23-01-2013 12:30AM

Has anyone tried mahatten the popcorn brand new cheese and onion crisps ? Very nice

Galia · 23-01-2013 12:31AM

Just a quick one is it possible to get jackets crisps anywhere?
they were the more luxury version of king crisps.
mmmmm Quality.

On my way over to the 24 hour to pick up two packs of King Crisps, the best of the best of the best.

I think it's king or maybe tayto that have launched their cheese & onion crisps to china recently and they cost €5 for the chinese to purchase them for 1 pack. ?.

Perri are owned by the same company that own Hunky Dorys, Tayto and King. http://www.largofoods.ie/our-brands/

Apparently they also own Sam Spudz:

Subsequently, Largo Foods followed this with the purchase of the “Sam Spudz” brand in 1995

Sam Spudz Burger Bites and Onion Rings six packs are available in supermarkets anyway.

What about the Tayto Chocolate?

Pity they've been ruined by foreign muck.

Unreal, been saying it for years.

Anyone who doesn't mix eating a bar of chocolate while eating a bag of tayto is missing out on a taste sensation.

Cosmicfox · 23-01-2013 12:36AM

The taytos you get up North in the yellow packet are the best ones, followed by Walkers.

RidleyRider · 23-01-2013 12:36AM

Definitely has to be walkers- even though they smell!

Yeah well..it's kind of a side effect of the flavourings?

Does anybody remember the bags of plain crisps you could get years ago that had a little dark blue sachet of salt in them so you could add your own if you wanted? Yum

I think they were called Salt n shake

Larianne · 23-01-2013 12:39AM

Perri. Yum yum yum.

What it Perri crisps that did the free packet of crisps if you found the token inside the packet?!

Can't believe nobody said Tyrells yet.

nocoverart · 23-01-2013 12:40AM

I find King and Tayto never taste as fresh in the multi-packs compared to buying an individual bag. Quite a slump in quality actually.

What differentiated them was that they were potatoes that were left with the jacket on. The clue was in the name. Bloody nice crisp though

Tayto first, Golden Wonder a close second.
GW only seem to be on sale every few months, on special offer though - Centras have them at 1e for a six-pack the last week or so.
