slowlygoingcrazyhelp · 02/10/2024 13:34

Just sat eating my lunch munching on a pack of salt and vinegar hula hoops, really not my thing 😂

favourite crisps: pom bears or lighted salted lentil crisps (Aldi)
least fav: walkers salt and vinegar, far too salty and vinegary 😖

Well my favourite was either Worcester Sauce Wheat Crunchies or Worcester Sauce / Tangy Twiglets, but you can't get either any more so I'll say Pickled Onion.

Least favourite is anything 'BBQ' I also hate Pringles.

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

Something liek that, probably; I think the old ones might have been called Twirls.

HappyHolidai · 02/10/2024 15:07

Favourite: Waitrose own brand salt & vinegar are top. Then other salt & vinegar, prawn cocktail, worcester sauce (RIP), Walkers roast chicken, Snaps (they sell them at the post office here)...
Generally I am pretty fond of almost all crisps. 😊

Dislike: cheese and onion 🤢.

I remember the old style salt and vinegar Twirls from the 90s, they were amazing.
Also liked Chipsticks for skinning the inside of your mouth - they still make them, but they are no where near as nice as they used to be!

FlapsofFury · 02/10/2024 15:14

Favourite plain or beef hula hoops, M&S salt and pepper combo crisps, cheese Cheetos the cruncy nicnac type not the wotsit ones or the French cheese Cheeto type crisps, I can't recall the name of those though.

Least favourite skips, quavers or prawn cocktail, also those sprout crisps that walkers did a while back were awful.

milski · 02/10/2024 15:16

Fave: two discontinued - walkers sensations lamb and mint and walkers worcester sauce
Least fave: anything bbq or ready salted

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!

Another "crisps" thread filled with references to snacks which aren't crisps 😡

Get your act together people.

Quacksalver · 02/10/2024 15:43

Tyrells sweet chilli flavour. Their crisps have the best crunch.

Apparently cheating men rub beef hula hoops around themselves to throw their partner "off the scent" Not keen on those.

AspirationalTallskinnylatte · 02/10/2024 15:45

Fave: salt and vinegar squares, m&s wotsits and bacon frazzles
Least fave:anything cheese and onion

gerispringer · 02/10/2024 15:47

I only like plain crisps all the rest are artificial and yuk. Best of all are those ones that aren’t salted that have a little packet of salt in them. I just don’t bother with the salt.

Think the tesco ones are called twirls.

Notaphilosopher · 02/10/2024 16:00

I'm obsessed with crisps.
Fave: salt and vinegar discos. Something so wrong yet so right.
Worst: spent longer thinking about this than I really should. Ready salted Seabrooks.

Breadcat24 · 02/10/2024 16:01

Used to love Brannigans Roast beef and mustard - sadly discontinued
Ready salted walkers now

Hate orange wotsit things but husband loves them

professionaloverthinker · 02/10/2024 16:21

Clue is in the title - Light hearted 😂

ladymalfoy45 · 02/10/2024 16:26

Fave Worcester Sauce pref French Fries, at a push Wheat Crunchies.
Least Fave the mad flavours around at Christmas.

lyingonthebeach · 02/10/2024 16:29

Favourite: Cheddar flavoured Kettle Chips

Least liked: prawn cocktail anything

PickAChew · 02/10/2024 16:35

Just plain ready salted actual crisps - either Tyrell's or Waitrose hand cooked. I love the crunch and the saltiness. The problem with ready salted is that you can taste how fresh the oil is and some brands sometimes taste absolutely rancid.

Dislike anything else.

fitflopqueen · 02/10/2024 16:36

Love Salt & Vinegar - most brands, any that pickle your lips and tongue esp. Can eat any flavour crisp if necessary!.

Not so fond of Prawn Cocktail, Bacon type. Dislike Wotsits etc.

1909sunset · 02/10/2024 16:37

Ridiculous question. I love them all like my children. Every single one. Just took a good five minutes pondering if there is an exception and nope. Love em all.
