(that's chip or cheetos to those in the US)
I love em, they are the best food evar, and have just bought 12 large packs of
Kettle Chips from the Internet. Kettle are my favourite at the moment and as far as crisps go they're quite healthy, none of those chemicals like MSG.
So what's your favourite crisp?

Smoky Bacon without a doubt!
Sour Cream and Chive is a close second.
Kettle chips are supreme, but can sometimes be a bit tasteless.
Tesco's own or Walkers are nice quality stuff.

As I love all pig meat these used to be my fav but sometime back Walkers changed the recipe so if I eat them now I get bacon burbs for the rest of the day. I think it's that nasty MSG stuff.

I slightly prefer beef but you can't buy them is 6 packs like you can with pickled onion.

I thought of that after I posted but isn't there's too many types and flavours of crisps to list and do any justice. Or are you thinking, Do you like crisps: yes or no?

I don't like the reduce the fine gastronomic artform of crisps to mere
flavours but it's done.
Worchester Sauce has to be there because it's my personal fav, any other additions?

Try these:

They are better tasting, better quality, organic, gm free, etc. Also less fattening.
You wont get them from Tescos tho, instead try farm shops, etc.

I'll be the judge of that.
I can't order them online though so I've emailed them asking for a local retailer. I havent noticed them around here. Thanks for the suggestion.

Cheese Toastie Hula Hoops
were the best evar.
All these new reduced fat sunflower Wanker's crisps taste horrid. I used to like the cheese ones but they're ruined them all now.

I was watching an episode of
Rednecks.tv (I'm not suggesting you're a redneck, but you are American) and they were testing crisps, or cheetos as they called them, and they hadn't heard of Salt & Vinegar before! What's that all about, this is basic snack science here. I'm glad it's not the case for all US citizens.

In particular, I love Ms. Vikies' Sea Salt & Malt Vinegar "potato chips," as they are
correctly called.

They're pretty good, but not quite as nice.

SEABROOK'S CRISPS PWN YOU ALL.
They am by far the most besterest of all teh crisps. Worcester Sauce especially, although this is closely followed by Prawn Cocktail, and then in close third is anything else they make.
See
