Actually the urban legend in my school was that Tayto were feeding the Drumcree protesters (the loyalist ones).

AFAIK UK Tayto are a completely separate company, they definitely taste worse.

The Spring Onion flavour are savage

Crime against decent eating?

Yeah was just about to say if they are using northern Tayto then they will be muck. We did a taste test in our house over Christmas with my Dutch Uncle, my aunt from Northern Ireland, my Thai sister-in-law-to-be and my sisters scottish fiance and all agreed that southern tayto is far superior!

Can't beat a Tayto cheese & onion Blaa. Will Blaas be on the menu I wonder?

naw.....only a good Belfast Bap...it's bigger than a Blaa and much more crusty...at school we used to take all the dough out of the baps....then fill it full of Tayto Cheese and Onion...not the Rubbish Tayto yee get down here..good Ulster Tayto... from Tayto Castle, Tyrone.

The Belfast Bap was created by Barney Hughes Bakery in the 1800s to help feed the poor in Belfast....don't go to Belfast without getting one.

Crisp sandwiches are OK, but kinda sickly. I wouldn't pay to eat one. Except obviously paying for the ingredients to make one. Rather I wouldn't pay to eat one in a cafe.

50 pence extra to have your crusts cut off? Seriously?

Feck that, they're charging you more to eat less ?

Burn them with fire.

And the crusts too - the best bit. Anyone who requests, and PAYS for the crusts to be removed deserves a good root in the hole.

Speaking of which, why is it so difficult to find normal, salted, potato tasting crisps in Ireland?

Ready salted crisps are more a British thing. They don't seem to have ever caught on in Ireland.

How people can eat any processed white bread is beyond me.

They must have no idea what its doing to their bodies.

Bla Bla.

My parents and grand parents were raised on white bread.

All lived and living great ages.

You just know the proprietors look something like this

I'd pop into them if they done an Alien Spacers sandwich.

Also alien spacers dipped in chipper curry is delicious.

I lived on Nordy Tayto at Christmas. I had given myself a good dose of alcohol poisioning (extreme hangover) and that was my meal of choice over the few days. I was in junk food heaven. Any brand of highly processed white bread with a good layer of butter stuffed with Taytos... orgasmic. Mind you, my ma did cut the crusts off and for free!

Lucyfur

Batch bread, little mayo, little butter, cheese, tomato and taytos.

I fcuking love crip sammiches.

As a result of this thread I had to amend my tesco at home order for some Tayto crisps. I got the sudden inexplicable hankering for tayto crisps in white bread with butter. Subliminal advertising perhaps?

foggy_lad

Was this thing not just one of those "here today, gone tomorrow" pop-up eateries that have become popular with those awful hipster type loonies?

Chipsters for hipsters...something like that.

The point is Micky feeling better about himself by belittling other peoples eating habbits

Basically any sandwich cafe in the country could replicate this idea with minimal effort.

jenn1984

The issue will be Northern Tayto which are gross compared to the yummy Southern Tayto

Why does Mr Tayto carry a mobile phone in his pocket all the time?

Fair play to them. It won't last, cos the hipsters will all fück off on their fixies to the next big thing...but fair play nonetheless.

If they can get gobshites to easily part with the shillings for minimal effort, they probably should.

Crisp sandwich shop...I swear, If I'd have gone to my bank manager with that business prop, I'd have been frog marched out of the place, with a dunce placard around my neck.

yep, 3 mth bearded hipster fad.

Aside from good PR/Marketing practice for the mediamoguls, 'tis probably the last thing one of the fat laden provinces (ulsterfry) and heart-attack/cancer prone regions of Europe needs right now...

more reading2: 'Cancer risk chemical acrylamide is found in KFC fries, crisps and cereal' Tayto makes an appearance in the top 10 here.

On the plus side some whitecoats reckon you only need 3mins of 'HIT' extreme exercise per week to significantly reduce fat levels from blood.

im not sure if it has been asked but do they do take aways?

Well as long as the cafes don't have dead eyed girls asking if I want "butter" and put Dairygold on the bread, fine.

Nope I saw a pic from the sandwich shop, there's a little blackboard saying if you want your crusts cut off it's 50p extra! Cheeky!
