Fav - giant Wotsits! Salt and vinegar anything esp discos and squares

worst: anything beef. Twiglet

AntigoneFunn · 02/10/2024 13:47

Favourite - prawn cocktail or Worcester sauce flavour

Will accept- cheese and onion, ready salted, salt and vinegar

Actively dislike - Beef or chicken flavours.

Though recently Aldi did some Kentucky BBQ flavour and they were lush.

spiderdave · 02/10/2024 13:48

Favourite - thai sweet chilli walkers sensations

Dislike - the blue Doritos. I like all crisp except those shitters!

Cas112 · 02/10/2024 13:48

Violetparis · 02/10/2024 13:50

Favourite - Walkers Baked Cheese and Onion or Sensations Sweet Chilli
Worst - Beef or prawn cocktail flaboured

LeavesTrees · 02/10/2024 13:52

Favourite - Wotsits, quavers, walkers ready salted, roast beef monster munch or cheesy Doritos (I love crisps!)

least favourite - ready salted squares or Doritos chilli heatwave or anything chilli/spicy flavoured

Notmydaughteryoubitch · 02/10/2024 13:54

Favourite - co-op sea salt and Chardonnay vinegar crisps, kettle sea salt and black pepper crisps & paprika crisps that you get in France

Least favourite - Doritos any kind - the devils work.

KohlaParasaurus · 02/10/2024 13:57

Favourite: Walkers Paprika Max, but any paprika flavoured crisps will do. I also like smoky bacon, and Kettle Chips sour cream flavour.

Least favourite: Prawn cocktail, anything that makes my mouth burn, and anything that's a "corn snack" instead of a potato crisp.

NeedthatFridayfeeling · 02/10/2024 14:00

Favourite - walkers roast chicken sensations or asda finest sea salt and chardonnay vinegar but to be honest most things inc prawn cocktail/beef/twiglets/pickled onion
Least favourite anything bacon flavour

BobbyBiscuits · 02/10/2024 14:02

I go through phases but love salt and shake crisps at the mo.
Used to love worcestershire sauce walkers but only as a drinking snack. I'd suck the flavouring off and take ages to eat them! Now they've discontinued it. 😭

Worst has to be salt and vinegar McCoy's. Way too bulky and strong.

Jaxhog · 02/10/2024 14:03

Fave: M&S worcester sauce crisps, kettle S&V, (most S&V), prawn cocktail, tomato ketchup (Canada only)
Least fave: doritos

user1474315215 · 02/10/2024 14:04

I only eat ready salted crisps, preferably the Kettle chips sort. Any flavoured snacks are horrible.

Diversion · 02/10/2024 14:07

Current favourite are Lancashire crisps - Black Pudding and Mustard. Least favourite are anything chicken flavoured. Used to love M & S prawn cocktail shells but they discontinued them and Skips arent quite the same.

ApricotLime · 02/10/2024 14:14

Mmm crisps! 😋
Favourite - Walkers prawn cocktail 😊
Least favourite- Cheese and onion 😟

Deathraystare · 02/10/2024 14:26

I hate the baked or ridged ones. I guess I go for Walkers mainly. Either Roast Chicken, Prawn Cocktail, Cheese and Onion or Ready Salted. I don't like Dorritos.

However I have to give up crisps. As I understood it, if you have cramp you lack salt, but I find when I have salty snacks I get cramp!!!!

ShortyWentLow · 02/10/2024 14:28

Favourite is prawn cocktail or salt and vinegar - various brands

Least favourite is ready salted - any brand. I admit I silently judge people who like plain crisps.

hideawayforever · 02/10/2024 14:32

favourite pipers roast beef

least any smoky bacon

MarkWithaC · 02/10/2024 14:36

I love most salt and vinegar crisps, the more mouth-puckering the better.

Plain or beef Hula Hoops.

These I have to restrain myself from eating the whole big bag.

At the posh end, lentil ready salted Proper Chips (I think they’re called; from Waitrose) and Chips de Madrid, partly for the packaging and the name 😄

Dont much like pickled onion Monster Munch (love the beef) or sweet as opposed to hot chilli crisps, but otherwise I’ve rarely met a crisp I’d turn down.

If we can stray into crisps of yore, I used to love those very thick and crunchy salt and vinegar ones shaped like fusilli pasta. And Piglets ❣️

WeMeetInFairIthilien · 02/10/2024 14:49

Favourite: the Christmas Pudding Walkers ones from last year controversial
I would actually walk over hot coals for them.

Otherwise, anything salt and vinegar.

Least favourite: erm, prawn cocktail? But, I'd still eat them in a pinch!

RavenT · 02/10/2024 14:51

Favourite: Any salt and vinegar, but especially Walkers. I like to feel like the inside of my mouth has been taken off :)
Special mention to: Walkers Snaps - old school favourite which I get occasionally when I get petrol.

Dislike: Expensive crisps which are so hard to eat - too crunchy, thick, you feel you're going to break your teeth on them!

Having the inside of one's mouth taken off is the point of salt and vinegar, I agree. Discos are the best for that.
I'd forgotten about Walkers Snaps! I loved them. Don't think I've seen them for ages.

Tesco sell salt and vinegar spiral crisps if that's the ones you mean

Pillowfights · 02/10/2024 14:58

Favourite: salt & vinegar-any iteration with a special mention to Disco's

Least favourite: prawn cocktail and any meat flavour or any novelty flavour

I like to think I'm a crisp purist!
