i've had a recent surge in my desire for crisps, and am on the hunt for the best salt and vinegar crisp. I've tried kettle (not strong enough flavour) and walkers (unbelievably thin almost a bag of air). Even hit the pickled onion monster munch (god they're different to when i was a kid). Pringles salt and vinegar were a favourite, but its not really a crisp, its just made of crap, but i liked the flavour profile...
So, suggestions for a strong flavour and sturdy crisp?

Crunchy vinegar. Would turn an ocean acidic
For fans of a corn based S&V snack, currently Lidl's S&V Crispy Sticks are da bomb.

Now rebranded as "Taylors" after they got bought over.
Hadn’t realised that! Bought a bag a week or two agoI usually grab the pickled onion ones but the boxing day curry christmas special ones are the best crisps I’ve ever had.

Ah, I’ve been enjoying Taylor’s crisps and wondered if they were related. I thought they might have been connected to Tyrells too tbh.
reminds one of this..."I wonder if this Homer Nixon is any relation?"
"Unlikely, sir. They spell and pronounce their names differently."

Yeah, Tayto is a classic case of either nostalgia talking or people believing the hype.
Just like when I discovered spring onion flavoured Golden Wonder the other week (seen for the first time in what must be nigh on 30 years!) - whilst I hoovered up an entire multipack in one sitting, and loved every minute, I'll not claim they're actually a particularly special crisp.

Was going to go Holy Zombie Raising, but it's only been a few months.
Manomasa have a new limited edition available through Waitrose (and maybe other places) - Chimichurri Steak.
I'm not picking up all the flavours they talk about but there is a superb crunch to them and taste wise it is as if they have mixed burnt ends in with the corn (in fact the ingredients do include dried beef).
I cannot find these anywhere. Not even Amazon Manomasa have a new limited edition available through Waitrose (and maybe other places) - Chimichurri Steak.

Then I had a look at the date... Cruel if so. Steak with chimichurri sauce is one of my favourite things on the planet.
I worked with an Argentinian chef who had his own recipe, which he never shared. I'd go into his prep fridge late at night and steal some in a little pot.

My Waitrose still have them in - they were brand new out when I got the first packet so I expect they'll be around till around September.Then I had a look at the date... Cruel if so. Steak with chimichurri sauce is one of my favourite things on the planet.

The varieties I've tried so far - pineapple & habanero, serrano chili & yukatan honey have been delicious. Flavoursome, and less greasy and salty than other tortilla chips.
Tomatilla salsa I also want to get my paws on.

The best Salt and vinegar crisps are the CO-OP seat salt and Chardonnay ones mentioned at some point earlier in the thread. They're really really delicious and very well flavoured.So, suggestions for a strong flavour and sturdy crisp?
