    Tayto confirmed it had bought the Pringles Mini brand from administrator Kroll and taken over its site in Corby, Northamptonshire, just days after Golden Wonder collapsed.

    The move will see 195 of Corby`s 350 employees continue to work for Tayto at the site.
    ...
    The family-owned business recently secured a £10 million contract to supply crisps to supermarket giant Tesco.
    So do Tesco crisps taste like tayto ??

    I take that it's Tayto in NI, not Tayto in ROI?

    I dunno if both companies are affiliated in any way, though the crisps taste different between Tayto NI and Tayto ROI. Logo's differ too.

    And now I think of it, Tesco crisps do taste somewhat like Tayto NI (Cheese and Onion anyway).

    I'd imagine that it is Tayto NI, because God forbid that UTV should have any news relating to the South.
