Salt and vinegar are the king of crisps and everyone who disagrees is clearly barmy

    Salt and vinegar, pickled onion, anything that makes me feel like the crisps are eating my mouth while i eat them

    Prawn cocktail, and I will fight to the death to defend it.

    If I had to save one flavour it would probably be Cheese & Onion. However, there's so many excellent varieties out there beyond the old guard.

    I've been off crisps completely for a month as part of my diet. I've lost nearly 2kg. Which is great, but fuck I miss them. I'm going cold turkey until the October holidays. Probably easier getting the jab to be honest, as crisps are my like crack to me.

    Most recent fave flavour was the Walker's Jalapeno & Nacho Cheese crinkle cuts. They go amazing with beer. And therein lies the problem.

    Everyday? It has to be salt & vinegar. So many bangers to choose from, too: McCoy’s, Discos, Pringles, supermarket own-brand twirls, Chipsticks…

    If I want a special treat, though? I recently discovered Croky À L’Ancienne Sweet Paprika and let me tell you, they blow every other paprika crisp out of the water. Don’t know what they’re doing over there in Belgium but it’s truly a game changer.

    If we're taking the classic red, blue green flavours, it's cheese and onion. But the packet should be green. Salt and vinegar should be blue.

    My favourite of all time were Brannigans Roast Beef and Mustard. Unbeatable.

    Do Scampi-Fries fall into the crisp family? If so then I’d put fish pillows up there with S&V

    Roast chicken for me if we're speaking generally. Salt & vinegar chipsticks however are easily the most addictive crisps.

    The best potato chip I have had is the most recent Lay's promo flavor, Brazillian Garlic Sauce.

    Those suckers taste like a crispy variant of the mashed potatoes I make at home. It's even buttery! It's soooo good, and I hate that it's just a promo flavor and not something they will keep around forever.

    Canadian ketchup chips. Not sold in US because it hyper--stimulates women to hysteria.

    Miss Vickie's Sea Salt and Malt Vinegar.

    Discos-level salt and vinegar is top of the league

    (Thai sweet chilli sensations are also pretty elite)

    Why are others wrong? Clearly scared of their own tastebuds

    Salt and vinegar

    Skill issue

    Kettle Chips, sour cream and onion. Hardly ever see it anymore, but that's my all-timer. Everyone else is right about their pick, reason being I don't want to share.

    I had to give up Takis, too "hyper-palatable" and addictive by design.

    That's a difficult choice.

    But it's very easy to pick the worst flavour - salt and vinegar.

    It was the Brannigans Beef and Mustard but that's just showing my age.

    Now?

    Prolly the Tesco own brand Beef and Horseradish

    Why?

    They actually taste of something. Most of the population are basic as as fuck and can't handle flavour

    Salt is the best one, and it's because there is no crap in those, just potatoes, oil, salt yet they taste divine.

    Runner up is Horseradish Cheddar and if you don't like those I understand, but the pungent horseradish and salty cheddar are so wonderful. And importantly, they don't have the disgusting powdered vinegar that ruins so many flavored chips.

    Walkers are utterly evil and a product of Satan's manky arse (because of their complete madness around packet colours). But, their pickled onion crisps make your mouth know you're alive.
