    All time fave has to be Tudor pickled onion flavour - I'd climb and moontain man. have to say, don't remember any of these last 3 adverts mind: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPOzzI5E0F8

    later I had a bit of thing for discos, esp the salt and vinegar ones....then there's quavers and frazzles. wouldn't knock a packet of BBQ beef Hula Hoops either. anyone remember space raiders??

    As for the fried potato chip of the modern era, well, that's driven by location. I am partial to these grilled, Finnish numbers....as would most men:

    What about pork scratchings???? Not a crisp, but can certainly divide opinion!!! I like them....as long as they dont have tufts of hair and scalp on them!!!!

    Pork scratching have to be the proper ones though not these Mickey Mouse puffed up rip off ones. Try Dixons for a bag full of them nectar of the gods.

    Fair play, there was something about the salt coming in that little blue packet. It somehow made them nicer than just your average ready salted. Marketing was clearly a lot easier back then!

    Flaming hot monster munch take some beating mind, although I do like Seabrooks too (various flavours are good...).

    On Tudors, remember the roast beef & mustard specials? Absolute crisp porn.

    **** you Walkers you monopolising crisp murderers.

    Anyway, after rambling, by far & away my crisp of choice is sour cream & onion Pringles. I go through about 4 tubes a week, they are the mutts manfat makers.

    Na, there's plenty flavour on the bad boys, just one by one sideways entry so the curve is on the buds.

    Winner.

    Pringles aren't the same without the Salsa dips, fail Mush.

    Eating pringles is like licking Ghandi's flip flops... dry as a bone and they make you gag...
    Compound the above with having to pay £10 a tube on manky airlines and you really do have the devil spawn of crisps.

    odd question but do you lick the roysters like I do?
    I prefer to lick them dry of flavour before proceeding to the main course.
