I guess it’s a similar argument to the Jaffa Cake one. If they’re not crisps what are they. If we’re talking Walkers I’m a beef or prawn cocktail man Hahaha not sure. I was going to say baked good but then I’d imagine all are fried so no idea. Love old school beef and onion. I did wonder why they sully prawn cocktail in a multipack but this thread has shown me why. I don’t mind prawn cocktail but will buy a new multipack before eating them and use them basically to be a fat bastard for a two packet of crisps day whilst saving the good flavours. I quite like christmas when they bring out special editions

For me Skips Quavers (cheese) Scampi fries Does anyone remember from the 80s Hedgehog flavour crisps and the bags with blue salt bag inside? Hegehog ones were OK but piglets were better

Had some Scampi and Lemon Nik Naks yesterday, very nice. Loads of powder at the end too.

When I was little there was only one type... a bag of crisps with a blue bag of salt in them. But unlike today when you get just a few in the packet, you had to dig deep to get the salt out. You young 'uns are spoilt. OS.

Vanilla flavour were not a great idea. Yep, not crisps for me

Walkers Paprika Max regularly sell out in the inner cities at lunch time. That would be because they’re fucking exceptional.

Vanilla flavour were not a great idea. Yep, not crisps for me My brain just couldn’t compute vanilla monster munch. Each time I took a bit my brain was expecting a bold pickled onion, beef or hot n spicy taste and instead got a mild vanilla sweetness. Probably the most confused I ever felt.

Just asked Alexa. Walkers the most popular brand sell 14 milion packets of crisps Per Day. A Staggering statistic.

Three flavours is enough! You're all crazy! I hate they make you buy prawn cocktail, or other weird flavours, in twelve bag multipack! Just put 3 x 4! In China there are loads of different flavours but none are just 'plain', salt n vinegar or cheese n onion! The most popular brand flavour seems to be cucumber! WTF! Obviously I went crisp free for the whole time there! Sorry, crisp lovers, can't report back! Oh the excitement coming back and seeing a bag of Walkers cheese and onion in a garage in Hemel Hempstead that is until I saw the price! 99p for a bag! Fuck that! I stupidly bought some Morrison's own brand the other day trying to save money. Obviously 'plain', salt n vinegar and cheese n onion! Why are own brand flavours so fucking strong, the salt n vinegar will burn your mouth out! They obviously don't do a lot of research into flavour levels! In conclusion, the fact the big three remain the big three means I'm normal and you're all weird! I did like the blue bag idea, exercise and crisps! But woe betide anyone who doesn't add the salt, crisps with no added flavour taste awful!
