Salt & vinegar crisps

Aibu to feel that Salt & vinegar crisps are disgusting? I don't eat them but my DS does. The smell makes me absolutely wrench.. Smell like some toxic rancid window cleaning products. No other flavours of crisps bother me but Salt & vinegar crisps just make me feel so ill, just the smell. I need to leave the room when anyone is eating them, then I need to open windows and wipe down all door handles and furniture etc afterwards. And don't even get me started on the grease stains made by my rather messy Ds. Anyone with me on this?

You couldn't BE any more wrong. Cheese and onion crisps are the worst ones.

Salt and vinegar are second to prawn cocktail, especially if you're making a crisp sandwich.

I bough the DSs one of these each when they were younger. No greasy hands. Grin

Ott.

Cheese and onion are my favourite and they really stink.

Scampi Fries or Frazzled are another matter...

middleager · 21/02/2021 18:43

Frazzles!

Eat a different flavour, no one is forcing you to have them.

Yabu Salt & vinegar crisps are the crisps of the gods

I feel the same way about Redbull. I've had to get off the bus when someone opened a can.

Love all flavours

Salt and vinegar is not one of my
favourites but I still eat them

Whatever happened to ''Quavers?''

Bought some yesterday after years of not having them, and they were completely different to the oldskool ones.

Smaller and far far too salty with an abrasive flavour.

Silenceisgolden20 · 21/02/2021 18:47

Love them!

Like me with the newskool Quavers...

Tasted horrible, but still managed to eat them.

Prawn cocktail.....Known in student days amongst males as ''Gusset flavour''

Top tier, potentially even a God tier flavour. YABVU

Kettle crisps balsamic vinegar. Yum. At least it’s just natural and not artificial flavour.

WaltzingBetty · 21/02/2021 18:55

You have to wipe down furniture after someone has eaten a bag of crisps

You know that's not normal right?

TheChip · 21/02/2021 18:56

They are one of the best flavours. My number one choice for a crisp sandwich.

Georgyporky · 21/02/2021 18:57

So don't buy anything you don't like.

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 21/02/2021 18:58

I love vinegar and I think it probably slims one's face as you tend to draw your cheeks because of the astringency... worth a go!

AllFrightOnTheNight · 21/02/2021 19:02

I can only eat ready salted on Cheese and onion, everything else is rank.

Jbh333 · 21/02/2021 19:03

They are disgusting! And I despise vinegar especially on chips bleurgh

MatildaStoker · 21/02/2021 19:05

Salt and vinegar is the absolutely best crisp flavour.

Cheese and onion is the worst, they smell like vomit 🤮

stopringingme · 21/02/2021 19:06

Salt and vinegar crisps as a sandwich or dipped in salad cream, that is the only way I will eat them.

speakout · 21/02/2021 19:07

The smell makes me absolutely wrench

Must be the Golden Wonder salt and vinegar.By far the strongest. Rosie the riveter's favourite.
