Best crisps?

Tried these. They're nice, but they're just cheese-flavoured crisps. I had to try them, but kind of had an idea they'd turn out to be just that. Mac won't taste of anything other than "generic carb" which will probably overlap with your standard potato crisp.

They've got these at the shop by Kew Bridge near me. They all have KFC Chicken flavour and Subway Chicken Teriyaki. All pretty good to be fair.

Yeh, tried all those. The mac & cheese ones, for the flavour you actually get, aren't worth the extra money you pay for an import.

Finally got round to trying these. Very nice indeed - lots of flavour, as you'd expect from caramelised onions. Personal preference is that it could have done without that balsamic sweetness that tends to emerge at the end, but that's only because I wanted more of the onion savouriness. It was still very tasty.

These are superb.

Impressively managing to nail the flavour, but again they stink. Only disappointment is they're ridged obviously. 9/10

Ooohhhh, who made them?

Tried these. Tasty, but underwhelming. Didn't taste particularly different from any other beef-flavoured crisps.

I’ve always felt underwhelmed by Kettle Chips, they never quite nail it with the flavours for me.

And on that note…

I love a truffle crisp, so I was excited to try these. To be honest, I’d been pretty sure I’d tried them before and expected strong truffle flavour, but it quickly became clear that I was mistaken, because I would have remembered how weak these are. They taste more salted than they do of truffle, and even that flavour is so underwhelming they’d be as well as to not salt it at all - you taste the crisp more than you do the truffle. Extremely disappointing.

Got the Golden Wonder Salt and Vinegar Chippies this morning.  Standard potato chips with a lip numbing salt and vinegar seasoning.  Absolutely amazing, downed half a bag within minutes.

They're great, but I have to go a few months between having them because of the sting on them. The chip shop curry sauce ones have more of a scent to them but end up a bit milder.

Has anyone tried the new Tayto flavours in Home Bargains? The Cheesy Taco and Salt and Chilli Chicken mid bags? Curious if they’re worth the 85p price point

Bret's delivers again. Grilled peppers and chorizo.

Very flavoursome, strong chorizo and paprika flavour.

Bret's are on one at the moment. These were pretty good - slightly sweet and quite chickeny.

These sound amazing, I love yakitori. If anyone sees Bret’s crisps for sale in Scotland let me know. @Carbomb ruins my day every time he posts one of these as I’ve not been able to try any of them, and I bloody want to!

@RedTwoster the only place I can find them is in Garden Centres!
