Crisps

Started by: i-spy (15245) 

After much market research I've come to the conclusion that crisps are a waste of money.
Walker's are just about the best of a bad bunch.

Walkers (in my opinion) are amongst the worst crisps. Mind you, I only ever eat Cheese and Raw, so that makes me a bit biased.
The best for flavour (in my opinion) are Tesco's Cheese and Raws, 89p for a bag of 6 packets. Not many in a bag, laaaaike!

I'm not a crisp lover on the whole but I do like Tyrell cheese and onion. they're like crisps used to be but suddenly they seem to have disappeared off the shelves.

Aldi's duck confit & boozy berry flavour are OK
but their black truffle ones are disgusting!

Britboy. Why do you say "Chips" for crisps, rather than Chip?
I know that there are more than one 'Chip', therefore they are 'Chips', but is there only one "Crisp"?

You're clearly an alien.

We have Kettle brand Chilli chips ( crisps ) perfect with a few coldies when watching the Sharkies in the NRL.
