    They taste amazing. That isn't the problem. The problem is a large percentage is wasted in crumbs. How would one go about reducing the amount of crumbs when eating Monster Munch? Right now I'm covered, they're all in my beard and even though I surely taste delicious, I look like I have Parkinson's disease.

    'They' changed the taste of them them twenty years ago. Haven't been the same since.

    And neither have the crisps. :P

    I find the main problem is that after a bag of it, so much has stuck to my teeth that they make a squelching sound when i bite

    water and a straw... there's a reason the packets are water tight.

    The real trouble with Monster Munch is that they contain less flavour than the cardboard box they pack them in compared to back in the day

    Remember the yellow bags with the Cyclops? Licking the crumbs would bring tears to your eye they were so spicy

    Just his beard. The rest of him tastes like sweaty ball sac.

    No one else does, why not take the initiative?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,355 ✭✭✭Daroxtar


    Maybe try closing your gob while you chew?

    I love the things but feel there's too few in the bag for a pricey 70cent!

    I do, but crumbs still get everywhere. I have one packet left, the fix that seems like it should work the most gets tested.

    You sir, need to shave

    Lads, Mighty Munch are the old Monster Munch. Fooking lovely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,443 ✭✭✭Bipolar Joe


    You sir, need to shave

    Real men have beards, and sexy ladies are attracted to them. Proper beards, that is, not heavily groomed permanent two day stubble.




    Also I look twelve without one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,983 ✭✭✭Raminahobbin


    I've never had them. I don't trust the look of them. But it does sound like your just a messy eater OP.

    Tayto waffles FTW. Nom.

    Do you eat your crisps like The Cookie Monster eats cookies? :confused:

    Chickatees as well! Has anyone else opened a bag of crisps only to realise they're stale because of a tiny hole in the bottom of the bag? Been happening to me loads lately!

    No I can't agree on Chickatees, never liked them from the first day I ever tasted them.

    Alien Spacers were nice, kind of like a rich man's meanies :pac:

    Chipsticks were the worst, I bought 2 packets on Sunday but the thought of my tongue getting cramp trying to dislodge them from my teeth means they are still in my press!

    Whatever happened to Mini Chips?

    I'm half tempted to make a video of myself eating the last packet of them I have so Boardsies can analyse it, but I'm ugly and you'll all make fun.


  • Registered Users Posts: 241 ✭✭shoos


    I hope by Monster Munch you actually mean Tayto's Mighty Munch.....

    We won't but promise us you won't do it in your 'pelt' :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,559 ✭✭✭refusetolose


    some have loads of flavouring while others have not much

    wish if the same amount of flavouring could be on each

    Meh, I gotta admit that I'm not a huge fan of Meanies, they're alright crisps but Chipsticks, Mighty Munch, Chickatees, Waffles, Wheelies, King, and the plain Tayto Cheese & Onion crisps will always top everything else at least for me, :pac:
