Very salty crisp recommendation?

158 replies

TeamNegan · 16/09/2021 16:58

I’m dying for some very salty crisps and all the crisps seem to be flavourless new and improved lately. Can anyone recommend some good salty ones, preferably salt and vinegar?

Ones I’ve tried that are no good anymore: Pringles (these used to burn my tongue with salt and are now bland??), Kettle Chips, Walkers, Chipsticks

Thanks Smile

Squares. The best salt and vinegar crisps I think!

Golden Wonder! Not that bothered about their other flavours but the salt and vinegar are superb.

Ditto, Tayto's.

Discos, squares, the cross cross ones from Aldi are the absolute best

Just shake extra cooking salt in the packet. 😋

If you can get your hands on Lancashire crisps their S&V are perfect in every way

Coldhandscoldheart · 16/09/2021 17:01

Posh Salt and vinegar from the co op

AgnesNaismith · 16/09/2021 17:01

*criss cross - like waffle kind of crisps, holds the flavour more

Also McCoy’s?

CandleWick4 · 16/09/2021 17:01

Co op sea salt and Chardonnay vinegar crisps. The best there is!

If you can find Taylor's crisps, their Salt & Vinegar (and in fact, ALL of their flavours) are divine. They're a bit of a holy grail around here, occasionally pop up in the co-op!

icedcoffees · 16/09/2021 17:04

Can you not add extra salt to the pack?

Orangedaisy · 16/09/2021 17:05

Taytos

KeepYellowBoxClear · 16/09/2021 17:05

Aldi’s not-Pringles are very salty.

Bluepop09 · 16/09/2021 17:07

Frisps mmm

morenachos · 16/09/2021 17:07

Another vote for Co-op Sea salt & Chardonnay vinegar crisps. Amazing and so salty!

lachy · 16/09/2021 17:08

I can highly recommend Pop Chips. Lovely and salty.

Splashinginpuddles15 · 16/09/2021 17:10

Salt and vinegar chip stick things from m&s ❤️

alphabeticalabc · 16/09/2021 17:11

McCoy's with the ridges on are so salty I cannot eat them!

TeamNegan · 16/09/2021 17:12

Thanks everyone!

Can’t believe I forgot about Squares, they’ve always been a winner so I’ll have to get some.

Lots of votes for co-op so they’ll be next and I’ll work my way down the list!

As for adding salt - yes but I find it doesn’t stick and just collects at the bottom of the bag..

Lidl's crisps were very salty, too salty for us (the ones from their big multipack)

Lightningrain · 16/09/2021 17:14

I like Pipers or Tyrells but I agree most don’t have enough flavour. I find Pringles hit or miss. Sometimes you get a pack that makes your tongue tingle and other times they’re not very strong at all.

SteviePicks · 16/09/2021 17:15

Discos all day long! So salty they burn… in a good way Smile

icelollycraving · 16/09/2021 17:17

Salt and vinegar discos. Not had lately though.
Co op ones 😍

NotMyCat · 16/09/2021 17:18

Yes to discos!

BashfulClam · 16/09/2021 17:18

I got a burn on my tongue from golden wonder salt and vinegar.
