@robb Late to the party but a "sharing" bag of Tyrell's salt n vinegar can't be beaten.

@robb Seabrooks make some nice crisps. Prawn Cocktail, Worcestererererer Sauce, and Beefy being pretty epic... also, all Vegan.

Sadly, like most crisps, they come in the form of approximately 7 intact crisps inside a 78% empty bag of potato dust and spud scented gas.

@robb this should become a regular thing I want a play by play of all the random chip (crisp???) flavors you can find 👏

fortythieves,

@robb I love that you’re blogging about crisps while the rest of the Apple folks are losing their minds about the new rules

@robb our local Co-Op has started stocking Two Farmers crisps. Slightly Salted and Hereford Hop Cheese & Onion - but they are the best. Thicker and more crunch than Walkers Sensations and flavour.

@phils I’ll keep an eye out

tldr,

@robb Did you manage to get a pack of these over the festive period?

robb,
@robb@social.lol avatar

@tldr I didn’t, I got burned the prior year with some from Tesco and didn’t fancy risking it this year.

tldr,

@robb Very very wise

@robb No special mention for Co-op Salt & Vinegar? Or Tangy Twiglets (RIP).

@robb there should be a short runtime podcast for this, and it should be called “Crunch Time”

@robb One of my best friends in high school was British, and whenever he'd go back to England to visit family, he'd return with tons of salt & vinegar, prawn cocktail, and ketchup flavored Walker's crisps.

If I had to rank them, I'd say ketchup are higher on my list, but prawn cocktail are a strong runner-up. It makes me sad that neither flavor are found in any meaningful quantity in the U.S.

@keenan We don’t get ketchup flavour here any more 😔

@keenan@social.lol avatar

@robb That's so fucked up.

@robb @keenan They’re not as common in supermarkets but I think they still exist? https://www.walkers.co.uk/our-range/walkers-crisps/tomato-ketchup

@alexjsp @keenan well now I’m on the hunt

@robb @alexjsp @keenan some flavours come up in niche places. I seem to remember only being able to find pickled onion flavour Walkers in Wilko's.

@robb @keenan Just add your own ketchup, it's easy

@keenan @robb Prawn cocktail FTW!

When I take Lucy home we go straight to a pub for Scampi Fries. A preposterously salty fishy pouch of maize.

@johnnydecimal @keenan I tried those for the first time ever with my dad the night before my wedding last year. I was impressed.
