Best crisps?

[Carbomb]

Tried the new Real McCoys Hot & Spicy. Not bad. Bit generic - they all have the tangy chilli flavour, but it goes well with the thick crisps. 

Bret's have done a grilled bacon flavour. Gonna try and pick some up. There aren't enough bacon flavour crisps on the market.

Hesitant to upset Bacon with what I'm sure are objectively mid crisps, but Doritos have done a new BBQ flavour while promoting the Minecraft movie and I can't stuff enough of them down my gullet. Love a BBQ crisp, and this one goes down real nice.

Bought a bag off the back of this recommendation...totally agree! Very tasty indeed and a decent amount of flavouring

Anyone tried the Seriously Saucy crisps from the Co-op? Always pick up a bag if passing a store, but can never work out the variety of flavours in them. Barbecue is one, can't tell the others.

Wotsits Crunchy Extra Flaming Hot does what it says on the tin, I’m usually good with ‘hot’ crisps as I love the flaming hot Twisted Cheetos and Monster Munch but I’ve had to tap on these, it’s a spice level that you think isn’t bad after 1-2 but shove a handful in and it punches your throat straight away

Still worth a go for the price, I got the 160g for 45p from Home Bargains, they also have the smaller 60g bags for 29p atm

Farmfoods have the huge bags of the normal walkers crisp version of those Extra Flaming Hot for 69p (nice!).

Went into Iceland today and bought the multi-pack of the reissued Worcester Sauce and Tomato Ketchup.

Gotta be honest - prefer the ketchup ones. Worcester's not bad, but not as good.

Apparently these have been around for a couple of months but I only just saw them, really nice and just enough heat. But they don't make up for both my local stores no longer selling the bootleg marmite crisps, the fuckers.

Just got back from That Poland ; have been keen on trying the Lays "choose your team" in Chorizo & Onion and Roasted Garlic but not at the inflated imported prices so grabbed one of each while I was out there for zl 7.50 which works out almost exactly to £1.50 each, as well as Lays Max in Pulled Beef - all were very good indeed, if you like the sound of the flavours you'll enjoy the crisps. Mrs raid likes cheesy so the Nachos in the "choose your team" ones went down well with her. Also grabbed a Crunchips X-Cut in Sour Cream and Onion, and Przysnacki "chipsy w kotle prażone" (crisps of kettle frying) - having enjoyed the cheese and onion last time, picked up the red pepper, and they were delicious. Need to try the wife on Kettle Chips pretty soon to see how they hold up to comparison.

Complementary post to Snack Attack when I get a minute.

These are belting. I'm a big fan of the brand (formerly Mackies) and the flavouring on these is akin to the really strong picked onion flavour normally found on cheap 10p crisps (RIP Meanies)

Not seen these before, so gave them a punt. Actually quite nice - like regular beef flavour crisps,  but with a bit of a sweet sauce edge.

No.. I tried these from Aldi and while not disgusting they just don't work being so sweet. I think they could work with a nice spicy salsa though.

Weirdly, I don’t think I’ve ever had Worcester Sauce flavoured crisps. Probably the kind of thing that would cost me a job, if eating crisps was paid work.
