    Kettle crisps, the navy bag with pink wroting, salt n balsamic vinegar.
    They are beautiful

    They do not. Even after multiple handwritten letters to the head honchos in Tayto.

    Classic Tayto Cheese & Onion and Lidl XXL Paprika


  • Registered Users Posts: 162 ✭✭mayo londoner


    McCoys steak flame grilled, the missus recently bought me a 36 pack for my birthday and had them gone within the fortnight. Prawn Cocktail and smokey bacon flavour Tayto, Bacon Fries, jesus I could go on and on and on. Sam Spudz BBQ flavour back in the day were unreal. Aldi used to do Sea Salt and Cider Vinegar flavour back about 10yrs ago that were seriously addictive, version they have now is nowhere near as good.

    Perri pub crisps were amazing

    Cant think of the name but they also made similar crisps that were in a red bag and equally as good

    Fairly odd is you cant get Manhattan crisps outside of Dublin

    What terrible disease destroyed your tastebuds?

    I've got perfect tastebuds which is why I'm able to eat a packet of tayto and realise that grand is the best way of describing them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    Tayto Cheese and Onion or Tayto Prawn Cocktail :) Jury is still out on the Bacon and Cabbage flavour


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭Indestructable


    Hot n spicy nik naks are savage

    Monster munch used to be savage. Only okay now, like lots of one's mentioned already.

    Ridiculously hot crisps they are

    Same with Doritos Tangy cheese


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 249 ✭✭M7roadrunner


    What? Six pages in and no mention of Roysters T bone steak flavour crisps?
    Also like McCoys S&V on an occasion


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,832 ✭✭✭heldel00


    Curry stix.
    They had a very questionable image of a Chinese man on the front of the bag but i was too young to be offended.
    Ah a packet of CurryStix, with a "Roy of the rover" pineapple bar, washed down with a bottle of Cavan Cola.... memories.

    Tayto cheese and onion, won the tournament too.

    Proper order too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,928 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Pickled Onion (outside of Meanies) flavour is pretty hard to get

    The NI Tayto make them but hard to get here

    Walkers stopped making there unreal version

    You can get “Space Raiders” in the discount shops, decent, cheap pickled onion flavour.

    Can you still get “Snaps”? They were great.

    Who's going to start a row by insisting crisps should be potato based, not corn or some other ingredient?

    I guess that'll be me so!

    I recently have purchased (and eaten too) a six pack of Aldi Sour cream lentil curls. There, I've said it, and I feel no shame, they are quite nice. In general I've rarely met a crisp I didn't like, though having said that I don't get along awfully well with Salt and vinegar.

    King Pub crisps,not sure they still do thembut they were savage with any beer

    Forgot about them great crisps, sell them in Dealz. You could eat a multipack in one go

    When did Tayto start making Meanies ? I was almost sure KP made them previously


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,050 ✭✭✭appledrop


    Its impossible to have a favourite crisp. Depends on my mood which one I want.

    I actually have a crisp press in my house filled with about 10 variety of crisps at any one time!! Dont worry I dont eat them all at once!

    Current favourites are chipsticks, monster munch, ripples or hunky dorys sour cream and onion, doritos, bacon fries and plain old king crisps.

    I love crisps

    Right now, my no 1 is Keoghs, Crinkle cut Flame grilled irish steak. Absolutely top quality and flavour.

    For a long time before that it was McCoys Flame grilled steak and I still like them but I find them a bit inconsistent. Some packs are gorgeous with lots of flavor but some are very bland.

    My local pub sells Pipers crisps and the Chorizo flavor are flippin lovely. But then again, t'was after a few pints I had them.

    Having said all that, there's still a lot to be said for a pack of Tayto cheese and Onion. In particular, the only job for a ham & tayto sandwich.

    Fuck off with the Doritos you spiteful pricks.

    Can’t beat a packet of Tayto cheese and onion. :D

    Other than that, I’d be a fan of Johnny Onion Rings or Waffles.

    Aldi Chilli tortilla chips, better than Doritos and at about 45c they're savage value too.
    WTF did Lidl to their ones. They used to be OK, now they are vile.

    Aldi ones vary a lot. Some batches aren't all that bad and savage value.


    Best ever were the Phileas Fogg Devilishly Hot Tortilla Chips.

    A good replacement were the Marks and Spencer own brand in a black packet, sadly also defunct.

    They're an insipid imitation of themselves now, there was a time they'd burn the inside of your mouth off before certain additives were banned. Same with chipstix, opening a bag of either would have brought tears to your eyes years ago.

    I went off Mini-Chips a long time ago because of the above, but I have to speak up for Chipstix - I had 2 bags today which nearly choked me when I got the scent of them, pure bliss.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,594 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Hunky Dory's Curry or Wheelies for me at the moment

    Has to be monster munch but bags getting smaller but yum

    Roasted ox flavour Real Crisps. Can't find them anywhere anymore


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,714 ✭✭✭✭Earthhorse


    I cannot believe Doritos are a successful product. Forget Apple; this is the real triumph of marketing over reality. It's basically cardboard shaped like a crisp. Horrible stuff.

    Post lockdown Earthhorse has been enjoying a packet of these occasionally with his lunch.

    People who think Cheese & Onion is an exciting flavour are also the kind to think that the weather forecast is a soap opera.

    Oh how I miss them. A great crisp.
