    Not the best but it seems like they discontinued it after I developed a habit of getting a bag or two each grocery trip: Cheddar Crispers. Or maybe it’s just a cheese shortage like that pepper shortage caused Hoy Fong Sriracha sauce to be hard to find for a bit.

        The problem is though, if you buy them enough, any other salt and vinegar crisps just taste like ready salted.

      Yup. I could eat salt and vinegar crisps til my tongue burns and my eyes are watering. People can have their flavour of choice, but in a multipack, they’re my number one.

    Scampi’n’Lemon Nick Naks, but if the shop doesn’t have them, Prawn Cocktail. I actually prefer how sour Prawn Cocktail is but as the Nick Naks are rarer to find, they defacto get top choice.

    Both of these are strong flavours that are really tangy and full of umami, and best of all both are vegan too. More crisps should have these qualities.

    The best potato chip I have had is the most recent Lay’s promo flavor, Brazillian Garlic Sauce.

    Those suckers taste like a crispy variant of the mashed potatoes I make at home. It’s even buttery! It’s soooo good, and I hate that it’s just a promo flavor and not something they will keep around forever.

    If we’re taking the classic red, blue green flavours, it’s cheese and onion. But the packet should be green. Salt and vinegar should be blue.

      This is correct, righteous and holy. Blue is salt and vinegar.

        Well I love your passion but I think the green of cheese is greener than the green of vinegar. Also salt is blue.

    Walkers are utterly evil and a product of Satan’s manky arse (because of their complete madness around packet colours). But, their pickled onion crisps make your mouth know you’re alive.

    If I had to save one flavour it would probably be Cheese & Onion. However, there’s so many excellent varieties out there beyond the old guard.

    I’ve been off crisps completely for a month as part of my diet. I’ve lost nearly 2kg. Which is great, but fuck I miss them. I’m going cold turkey until the October holidays. Probably easier getting the jab to be honest, as crisps are my like crack to me.

    Most recent fave flavour was the Walker’s Jalapeno & Nacho Cheese crinkle cuts. They go amazing with beer. And therein lies the problem.

        True, but i tended to use that as a pass to have several packets. See also: Quavers, Space Raiders & Squares
