Thank you, I will. The first time I had tried ‘ Lays ‘ crisps was in Canada 🇨🇦. As a Brit, I cannot tell how excited I was to eat a crisp and not puffed maize or corn. Chips in England are proper thick sliced pieces of potato ( no skins ) , deep fried in oil and immediately splashed / drowned with vinegar and salt shaken on top. I am old enough to remember them being wrapped in newspaper to soak up the grease lol. After the ‘ Iris Virus ‘ has cleared up, travel to the East End of London to sample ‘ pie, mash ‘ n ‘ liquor ‘ ( we pronounce liquor as ‘ likka ‘ - Before you freak out, liquor is parsley sauce. You are of course welcome to drink whatever you like, provided our pubs are open 😉. Xx

Mighty white bread was the ultimate crisp sandwich bread of my childhood Tudor gammon or golden wonder spring onion.
Walkers crisps used to be much crunchier because they were fried. I think now crisps are generally baked to reduce the fat content. As a child it was imperative to eat hula hoops from your fingers! Pickled onion flavoured Monster Munch is the best! I am certain the shape was to mimic the monster’s teeth.

When it comes to Tayto, there's a whole story too it. There is actually two Tayto crisps companies. One in the Republic of Ireland and one in Northern Ireland. The Republic company just allows the other brand to exist. So the roast chicken was from the Northern Ireland company and the prawn cocktail skips were actually Irish. Here in Northern Ireland there's actually a friendly rivalry between the two brands as to which company has the better tasting world famous cheese and onion flavour.

Quavers and skips are soft and melty when left in your mouth and so good treat for kids. Wotsits are also like that, cheese puff style. If you get a chance try Golden Wonder crisps from Scotland xx
The Prawn Cocktail Flavour you hit exactly on the head. Many people ASSUME that Prawn Cocktail flavoured crisps/chips/ Maise snacks contains ‘Prawn’, they DON’T. Prawn Cocktail flavour is actually the sauce flavour which in the UK IS Called ‘Marie sauce’ usually served with prawns & shrimp & possibly Lobster. It’s not too complicated to make at home, all it’s made from is approx 5 parts Mayonnaise and 1 part Tomato ketchup mixed together ( you can add a sprinkling of cayenne pepper to it if you want, but it has quite a nice tangy flavour as a basic sauce.
Monster Munch is year round, and they're amazing, but Cara had me cracking up. I was also laughing hysterically listening to you both try to describe Hula Hoops. They taste grim, they're just fun to eat because you have to put them on your fingers and eat them that way.

Tayto crisps are made in a factory in a small town called tandergee in northern Ireland. There is also another place called tayto in the south of Ireland. People debate on which ones are nicer. But from our wee small town I would say they are the best. There is multiple flavours you should give them all a try 😁
Salt & vinegar Disco’s for me. I prefer Golden Wonder Crisps or potato chips as you say than Walkers crisps in the UK. Lol Love watching you both.

yeah - it's a tomato flavour really. The prawn cocktail sauce (Marie Rose Sauce) is a mix of tomato and mayonnaise. Some recipes also have lemon juice and/or worcestershire sauce.

The pickled onion Monster Munch are not seasonal.At Christmas we get the Turkey and stuffing ,prawn cocktail chicken and thyme ete etc/They`re usually in the bigger family bags.Walkers are the best imo ,and they do so many flavours.If you didn`t know , you can get multi packs here too.

British cottage or shepherd's pie is nice with crushed crisps on top of the potato and grilled to make them extra crunchy. You can also add some cheese on top of the crisps. This is a slightly cheating way to get a crispy topping, works like a charm. (Use plain salted crisps). 👍
Hi guys another great review on our products 👍♥️ although those Tayto's aren't available in England readily. Maybe an Irish market may have them, but to be honest, Lays are more available as we have a lot of American products over here now as part of our norm. But yes walkers are our Lays correct.

I don't know if I have this right, but here goes. British chips are chunks of potato deep fried. I always think that the American fries are always, thin, strips of potato. English chips (fries) are potatoes, cut length ways into strips about as thick as your finger. They should be fluffy inside when you eat them. Red potatoes are the best IMHO. For a little extra make a batter with flour and egg yolks. Dip the chips in the batter before you deep fry them. Don't cover all of the chip. Just a quick swizz round and drain off as much batter as possible.. Done this way is a more northern English thing. You could also try potato scallops. Slices of potato cut across, not the length of the potato. This time the cut should be, about half as thick. Cover the whole of the slice in egg yolk batter and deep fry. I know you baulk at kidney but I love it! Do you eat liver and onions? Fantastic with mashed potato. While we're on offal. I also like lambs hearts. I think if you eat an animal you should eat all of it! Oh yes! Have you tried tongue? Ox tongue is the best, it has a stronger flavour than pork tongue. It's possible to get tinned tongue but it's expensive. Are you feeling slightly sick reading this?

According to Wikipedia: Lay's acquired Walkers in 1989. Walkers produce and distribute a wide range of snacks, and crisp flavors include Cheese & Onion, Ready Salted, Salt & Vinegar. Walkers also makes Sensations-branded crisps in the UK. The logo used by Walkers is noticeably similar to the Lay's logo, featuring a red ribbon around a yellow sun, and derives from the Walkers logo introduced in 1990. The other Frito-Lay brands are also distributed through the Walkers label.

Tayto in Northern Ireland has its HQ at Tandragee Castle. Not to be confused with Tayto in The Republic of Ireland (different company, same kind of products) that has the Tayto theme park.

Ah, okay. I knew I had heard about the park, but I didn't realize that there were two companies with the name. Thanks, Tony!
Walkers are only in UK & Ireland. Lays bought walkers in 1989. So lays own walkers. But walkers uk obviously have their own factories & flavours here in UK. The Pepsi co part is because Pepsi own lays- lays is a subsidiary of Pepsi under Frito lays. Yes uk uses a lot of potato in out crisps as we call them (rather than chips chips in uk are what you call fries). Probably because we grow a lot more potatoes than corn in uk.

Having never visited the US, what are the usual chip/crisp flavours over there?

Sour Cream and Onion, Barbeque, cheddar, Salt & Vinegar. Similar, but not quite the same.
Just remember prawn cocktail tastes like the pink sauce, not the prawn

There’s this show called Snackmasters where Michelin starred chefs try and recreate our snacks, and then we see how the actual snacks are (mostly) made. Quavers and Monster Munch were 2 products on it. Recommend watching if you can track it down in the US

Northern Ireland! Wooo! Yep, Tayto Park is the theme park at Tayto Castle. I've never been myself, though. Cheese and onion Tayto are delish in a sammich. Irish Tayto are said to be better than ours, but I've not tasted them.

That's cause they're not prawn flavour.. it's the flavour of the dip of you dip prawns into, so a mostly tomato base sauce.
