Cheese & Onion mmmmMMMMm m

WORST CRISPS

My son loves Pickled Onion Monster Munch.. usually in the car too!! They're like battery acid.. instant heart burn guaranteed.

Seabrook for me, allways like looking on the back of the packet to see ingredients of potato and salt, none of the stupid flavour enhancers and other rubbish you usually find.

Seabrook's again!

Always takes me back to the times when I was a kid and my parents took me across the road to the Hollybush pub on a chilly autumn night...

McCoys - Cheese and Onion; would have voted Seabrook, but you can't get them down here - no joke! Morrisons stocked them a couple of times and that was it. No other suprmarket even bothered.

Why no Golden Wonder? At least they're potatoes look a bit more natural than Walker's (which in my opinion just look synthetic - constant striving to make each crisp identical leaves awful tasting crisps)

I like the new mediteranean range of walkers crisps. My fiancee's fave crisps are Brannigans Beef and Mustard... but the only place we have found that sells them is the post office on west street!

Seabrook have been going for ages!

I remember my grandad buying me Seabrook crisps when I was a nipper and I am 32 now!

The tomatoe flavour ones were awesome.

Seabrooks.

Reminds me of going watch my Uncle play non-league football matches and as a treat we'd get a pack of Seabrooks and a bottle of Dandylion'n'Burdock at half time.

Got to be the crips they sell in Waterstones cafe, not sure of the brand but they're like Kettle chips and the sea salt and balsamic vinegar are the best:clap:

But they are closely followed by M&S salt and black pepper crisps:D

If you ever go camping and need to start a really good campfire then take with you a few bags of crisps.

Pringles and doritos both go up like a house on fire and burn for quite a long time, but be careful of the dripping plastic effect. That stuff burns and burns.

Walkers and the other brand names burn really fiercely but do not last long.

Shop brands tend to burn really crap - soggy crisps - but once they get going they burn for ages.

What's all that got to do with anything? Imagine what you are putting into your stomach. I'll stick with chocolate thanks.

This poll made me do a bit of research into who actually makes my favorate...

Pringles... right... are made by... Proctor and Gamble :gag:

P&G - are they the ones who allegedly still experiment on animals and then kill them?

Boycot pringles.

HotPhil

IMO nothing wrong with animal testing, I'd happily boycott Pringles on the grounds that they're reformed rubbish rather than a true crisp.

DragonofAna

Reckon the fire brigade ought to take special precautions when attending fires where crisps may be involved.

They always ask if there are solvents or chemicals in the building but never - "How many bags of crisps do you have in there?"

Was experimenting and some burning yuk dripped from a pringle I was burning. That stuff is worse than napalm. Even when the flame goes out the stuff carries on melting its way through anything it comes into contact with.

And I heard once that you are supposed to eat crisps. Not likely!
