What's Favourite Chip Flavour?

icyfroth — Thu, 16 Apr 2015 07:30:02 GMT

I always buy a box of 20 little packs of chips in my fortnightly shopping.

There are 4 flavours:

Salt and Vinegar

Original

Chicken

Barbeque

The Chicken ones go first and Barbeque are always the ones to go last.

My favourite is Salt and Vinegar.

These are my favourites.

but I only have a pack every three weeks or so.

Most of the big name brands are full of msg (which I have an allergy to) so I avoid them.

Sadly, I'm old enough to remember the original Smith's chicken-flavoured chips - when they were sold in clear, printed cellophane packets. Yum - best chippies ever!

And the original Thins Bacon flavour of the 80's.Fan-bl oody-tastic! All of the most recent imitations give me indigestion.

There's a new one on the market down here in Melbourne - Eta chips from NZ - not too bad at all. Sold thru Reject shops and others.

My favourite chips were the ones that had that little blue twisted wrap of paper with the salt in it.

I don't recall them at all...and being a chip afficionado, that leaves me frustrated!

I think that was the American version Curmu. The original English ones weren't called Salt n Shake.

Joono, I've never seen Smith brand or salt N shake.

The first time I tried Salt and vinegar chips was in London. We have them in the States now, but they are not the most popular chips.

I don't think we even have chicken flavor.

I don't eat chips often, but I like plain, BBQ, and salt and vinegar. We don't have the ketchup chips in my State, but I've tried them.. they are good once in awhile.

Oh and i just remembered.

I am rather partial to silicone chips as well, those and I have had a close mutually beneficial relationship for decades 🙂

We call that flavor, sour cream and onion in the States.
