Best/Worst crisps for Sandwich making

smokedeels · 10-10-2012 12:41am #1

I just had a Skip-Sandwich (Rye), one of the most underwhelming combinations yet.

Last week I went for Meanies on Batch and it was an eye-watering feast.

Any recommendations, dos and don'ts?

Best: None.
Worst: See Above.

Am I the only one who hates crisp sandwiches?

Proper honest to God original Taytos are the only job for this

DwightSchrute1 · 10-10-2012 12:42am

Best has to be Taytos. add to that some fresh white bread and dairygold butter

Best: King
Worst: Monster Munch/Popcorn if that counts as crisps.

Chickatees on bread = food of the poultry-flavoured gods.

You're welcome.

Rusty_Mectum · 10-10-2012 12:49am

King is king! But any brand really, and most flavours..apart from ready salted....such a waste of crisps!

I'm tempted to say that King taste "stronger" and Tayto have a more subtle charm, but it's possibly all a mental thing. Somebody needs to conduct a blind taste test.

King. That's why they're called King.

If we allow Popcorn then some lunatic will come in and suggest salted peanuts.

For the record: Peanuts are great on an Asian-style wrap, like Tofu and Sweet Chili.

They were the business. Savage crisps.

Chuck Stone · 10-10-2012 1:25am

Not Hula Hoops. Too painful.

Hasta be the potato crisp.

Cheese and Onion. Smokey Bacon. Prawn Cocktail.

Tayto have lost my loyalty due to inconsistency.

Chuck scream if crips too hard.

Why am I writing in a list?

kumate_champ07 · 10-10-2012 1:27am

meanies are surprisingly good in a sandwich.

Tayto in a sandwich, King on it's own.

phoenix999 · 10-10-2012 1:30am

King are lighter in texture than Tayto and have that lingering aftertaste. Tayto are nice every now and then, but Kings rule!

Vicar in a tutu · 10-10-2012 1:31am

King. nothing more nothing less.

TheChizler · 10-10-2012 1:31am

I was once held up at the Canadian border entering the US, trying to explain crisp sandwiches. They couldn't understand the concept. Had to wait for approval to bring them in.

They were Lays by the way, a poor man's Tayto.

upandcumming · 10-10-2012 1:39am

Tayto Cheese and Onion, Pat the Baker, Dairygold, decent ham... OMG!

maxfresh · 10-10-2012 1:49am

King cheese and onion ,salt and vinegar works as well for a change

opti76 · 10-10-2012 2:11am

ok now i feel like a freak for loving soda bread and sour cream and onion pringle sandwiches.

Brendog · 10-10-2012 2:14am

hunky doreys - best

chipsticks - worst

The weirdest I have seen was both a Monster Munch and Meanies sandwich with Heinz Ketchup. I even tried it for the craic, it was very savoury and spicy.

Slice of white bread, some butter and Tayto Salt and Vinegar sandwiches were a stable of my childhood school sandwiches, I was a very fussy eater and cost my parents hundreds in visits to pediatricians back in the day, I was underweight and my looking at my medical records this year, it said "Child is undernourished!" Two stone overweight today and trying hard to lose it, how times change!
