Stupidly hard to find considering they are produced in the UK. I draw the line at ordering snacks online.

I love Tavern Snacks crisps - made in Charlton and seem to be a fairly local to SE London. Their Beef and Mustards and Prawn Cocktail are superb.

The REAL crisps are pretty much all we can buy at work - jalepeno chilli ones are sooooo good and genuinely hot

I have occasionally seen other flavours, but not the Ham and English mustard. Besides the vending machine at work, the only place I have seen them for sale is Lidl, but they haven't had any in a while.

These are very good, as semi expensive crisps go.

If piglets are allowed, I nominate spar bbq ball things. Massive chemical flavour overload, but difficult to walk past once spotted.

Tonight I tried American pretzels flavoured with BBQ and (different packet) chilli. Absolute crack. Can't remember the make.

Brannigan's ham & pickle, as mentioned in earlier post. Salty, sweet and sour all in one!

Taytos Irish crisps - all flavours are great but particularly Worcester sauce. Tricky to find. Texture of the crisp much nicer than (say) walkers, not sure if the potatoes are different?

I see Ringoes are back - tried the salt and vinegar the other day - very good

Bobbys crisps seem a bit "dirty" but the onion rings are great. Seem to be sold in many newsagents in City of London.

Walkers "normal" crisps are a bit rubbish but the french fries in worcester sauce I have a thing for

Monster munch pickled onion = the old fried (?) ones in the red pack were like a vinegar rush. New baked ones (purple pack) decent but not quite the same.

I have a thing for salt and vinegar and worcester sauce in case you haven't noticed

Bought a multipack a few weeks back from either morrisons or B&M, still good. Threw a bag in with a tin of macaroni cheese (desperate measures at work one day) almost made it edible.

Just got back from the canaries, why do the continental paprika crisps taste so good, and then never get sold over here? Paprika Pringles are good, but not as good as the bags over there.
