    I thought Tayto to be restricted to the Irish market...?

    Never tried Seabrook but I may now. Today I bought a 6-pack of Nice n Spicy Nik-Naks and ate more packets than I should have. Complete rubbish but very edible all the same.
    You sound like my long lost relation!!!  Once I start, I just carry on eating too.  Nik Naks are divine,  I used to love the cheese flavoured one they did but to be honest, I will wolf any old crisp down.  Just not overly keen on the very crunchy ones like the Kettle ones. 

    I don't know if Tayto are limited to Ireland.  I've often seen them at Quality Save and Home Bargains but nowhere else.

    All variations on a theme. I'm a plain crisps fan myself but it'd be interesting to hear how the 'posh' versions taste compared to standard salt and vinegar. What's in a name? Do they taste as sweet, or in this case savoury? 🤔🙂

    Talking of rubbish crisp habits I have recently developed an addiction for cheese puffs. 150g bags are available at Aldi for 49p and it is quite easy to inhale that pack in your sleep.

    So much to read, so little time.

    Husband is a snacker. He has a metal bread bin with lift off lid, to keep the dry stuff in and half the top shelf of the fridge for his olives and other pickled stuff. Gradually lowering his carbs. He's got pistachios, Brazil nuts and today from Iceland, Walkers 6 x 24g bags Shake n Salt (12.5g carbs per 24g bag) 1.25 and Peperami 10 pack £2 (0.6g per 10g stick).

    I’m 99% certain Tayto manufactures Tesco own brand crisps (certainly the multipack versions).
    It's not your credit score that counts, it's your credit history. Any replies are my own personal opinion and not a representation of my employer.

    The Lidl Snacktastic Low fat Cheese and Onion are lovely

    My favourite crisps at the moment are Walkers Max Strong Hot wings

    You're all mad, I tell  you!  The only snack worth buying....



    FRAZZLES!   And they are bloomin' noisy - I got berated by an ex- for teaching her little cousin how to frazzle - i.e. eat them like a guinea pig would.   "Get ready...FRAZZLE!!". Got the icy stare as little kid and I competed to see who could make most noise!
    Now a gainfully employed bassist again - WooHoo!

    I could devour 2 share bags in 1 sitting.  Not as bad as a work colleague who has a full on lunch and then 2 large share bags straight after with a 1 litre bottle of pop.  Then she moans that she is the size of a walrus!  LOL.
