Wiejskie Ziemniaczki spring onion flavour crisps are outstanding. I got them in the Polish food quadrant of the Co-op. A flavour reminiscent of Tudor spring onion crisps which were a childhood favourite of mine.

Just discovered these in our local Morrisons alongside the paprika version. If they had crack as one of the ingredients I wouldn't be surprised.

S+v pringles. Went into garage once,out of date pringles on offer, 50p. Grabbed a pack, and the till person said ' you're the first person to buy them all day' so I said ' two for the price of one?' ' go on then' he said. Two packets s+v pringles for 50p! Got home, put kettle on and by the time it boiled I'd eaten half a packet. Made cup of tea, finished first packet and soon after, opened the second pack. Anyway you know how it is, ' once you pop' etc. so in the space of an hour or so I'd eaten them all. Felt like my mouth had been turned inside out :-)(

Are we including those ragamuffin carpetbaggers Pringles as bona fide crisps ?

At only 42% tattie, I feel we need a moratorium till this has been decided.

[hidetheelephants]

The thread is chockful of corn-based carpetbaggers so I don't think anyone's moderating very harshly.

Nibb-it Wheelz Mexican flavour.
Buffalo flavoured Hunky dorey.
Salt and pepper Pringles (stop mucking about and make these a normal flavour and not a special you do now and again)
Canadian Ham Seabrooks.
Mackie's of Scotland Haggis and Cracked Pepper.
Phileas Fogg Tortillas, Normal above the devilishly hot.
Phileas Fogg relaunch American bubble chips Louisiana sweet & smokey BBQ.
Belin Croustilles Emmental. (a french cheesy nik nak)
Sainsbury's Salt & Pepper Combo Snack Mix.
M&S Salt & Pepper Combo Snack Mix.
Morrisons BBQ saucers.
Smiths crisps Bovril flavour.
Hot dog and ketchup. (cant remember if they were KP or Tudor)
Pickle onion Discos (only seem to do prawn cocktail in the multi packs now)
Pepperoni Frisps (and the rest of the flavour frisps)
Southern fried chicken Roysters.
Nice n spicy and rib n sauce Nik Naks

Any of them above the bland junk that Walkers do.

Worcester sauce Taytos are amazing but hard to find.

Only place I know that has them is the cheese shop in Liverpool St station.

It is easy to get multipacks of the other flavours

Current favourites, amongst many great options, are these:

Pringles Sizzl'n Chilli and Cheese
Co-op irresistible Chardonnay vinegar crisps. These are amazing
Seabrook Fire Eaters Scorpion Chilli ones in the black bag. I love hot crisps but these are mental and most of my colleagues couldn't eat them!
Sainsburys Roast garlic and mixed herb summer specials - just so much better than expected. Yummy

Tesco lightly sea salted crinkle cut crisps.

These are the nicest ready salted crisps ever.




I'm still mildly furious at KP over the axing of Brannigans. Although in KPs hands they had become a thin and puny pastiche of what they were in the 90s.

My current favourite too, nice kick.
Also Hula Hoop Flavarings, "spicy" flavour. The texture is just right, not like giant hot wotsits which are a chore to eat.

These Brannigans Beef and Mustard (original packaging/flavourings), changed the flavours and packaging in the early 00's but still tasted alright, now disappeared from the face of the planet

[zygalski]

I seem to remember eating a pack of those many moons ago & literally frothing at the mouth.
Sodium levels too high, perhaps?

Have we had cheese XL yet? The crisp of choice for Cumbrians.

Also: although not a crisp as such, Pickled Onion Monster Munch.

I miss being a kid and going to the pub (as a child) with my dad, and getting a packet of s&v with a proper (brown) pickled egg in it…

[evilmunkey]

brannigans beef n mustard or the ham and pickle are to die for. loved the old tudor crips curry flavour

deeply upsetting as these were IMHO some of the best crisps around.

S&V hula hoops
Crab Pringles

I recall XL crisps, used to buy them off the pop man once a week. Ha! Pop man!

The mustard was so strong it would enter my nasal cavity and quickly overwhelm my senses. Outstanding!
