CycleChat Investigates - Crisps

[Brandane]

A mate of mine used to deliver to the Walkers Crisps factory.

From the bit of the site he saw, he said he would never eat a Walkers crisp again.

A mate of mine used to work in a dairy. He hasn't let a drop of milk pass his lips since then - about 40 years ago!

My corner Coop has a bin for just out of best before date stuff usually for 10p.

There's a whole shop for that in Northampton called Best Before It's Gone and its web address says it all, www.cheapfood

Remember Potato Puffs in the red and white bags. If they released them tomorrow, they'd go straight to the top of my league.
Can't imagine why they dropped them ?

Don't you just hate it when a favourite thing is dropped?
I don't remember Potato Puffs but I do remember Sainsbury's used to do a snack called piccolos, I loved them and they were my favourite, it was a very sad day when they discontinued them.
Anyway I voted for ready salted.

When touring I encountered a really tasty snacky thing by a company called Snatt's. I was never able to find them in the UK.
Difficult to describe, texture-wise it was like a flatbread made out of maize and olive oil, but I liked the tomato and oregano ones.

That and a bag of cherry tomatoes in my bar bag was my go-to food to propel me between second lunch and first dinner (washed down with Orangina that had been bungee'd to my camping gear and was, as a result of sitting in the sun all day, unpleasantly warm by the time I drank it)

I'm surprised there's not an option for "Thai sweet chilli" since it seems to be the default flavour of every bloody new snack going these days.

Or bloody salted caramel. Everything is salted caramel flavour
Salt = on chips
Caramel = pudding.
Once again, I have spoken

Seabrook's crinkle cut cheese and onion are the crisps of the gods - you'll not find finer.

Sitrep. Chsese and Onion in the lead, but Ready Salted, the King Amn g Crisps, doing well in second place. Salt and vinegar languishing way back in third, like the filth it is.

For those who voted cheese and onion, what sort of cheese do you think they taste of? Genuine question as to me they don't taste at all of cheese.

STOP THE STEAL

I demand that you all march on Downing Street and FIGHT to make ready salted great again.

Scampi fries are nice once in a while. I'm quite partial to a chilli Dorito. Chicken crisps are yuk. Salt n vinegar nice sometimes but tend to strip the skin off my mouth. Poncy sea salt and other simpler flavours are nice. I don't tend to like meat flavours on crisps.

Nik naks are probably my favourite (nice n spicy flavour)

 

[postman]

Funny thing is I gave them up weeks ago.I found I was getting indigestion.So bad I had to get medication lanseropole or something like that.

They don’t taste of any cheese. They taste of cheese and onion flavour, in the same way as banana or strawberry flavoured things don’t taste of banana or strawberry.

Pringles anyone?
