Seabrooks Prawn Cocktail......The finest prawn cocktail crisps going!
Whoa! Is that lettuce next to that fish? ####ing lettuce? #### off.
And where's the ####ing gravy?
Olives on the bar?? Eh?? You sure, not where we live SonnyJim, they'd flatten the Mirco Brewery Real Ale'ist in all of us. They're fine if drinking wine or savory cocktails, but never with beer, ewe, megga ewe.
Now if you are talking Nuts on the bar, then ewe too.. all that finger grabbing/haven't washed hands from the vist to the loo syndrome.. no, no thanks.
Quavers and Guiness come recommended from me, have been known to miss supper for a couple of pints and a couple of bags of cheesy Quavers.
Shh.. Don't tell the savvanahs we keep the good Seabrooks crisps and send the rest darn sarf.
9 QUID!!! You don't get much do you ๐ฏ you'd get half a whale for that ooop norf!
Another fan of Seabrooks Ready Salted here but those Jacket Potato and Butter are disgusting. They're so sweet and have a horrible after taste.
Whatever happened to Hedgehog crisps?
I just got into work and read this thread, then promptly left the office to go and buy crisps. Thanks. Ham and Mustard McCoys in hand, I read on a happy man............

That's the funniest thing I've seen today.
Only in London....
Olives are homo.

No you don't; you get something that's bin deep frozen for several centuries, some McCains if you're lucky, and Happy Shopper peas. Unles you live near Grimsby, and quite frankly, who wants to do that? ๐ฏ
Theres a facebook group that supports it so it must be true...
Some ponce will be along soon to say that they would rather have la-di-da capers on a pizza rather than mushroom.
Homo- what? Homogenised? Homologated? Homophobic?
Homogenisation. Please see study on the subject in the link.

What about tortillas??
Are they a crisp?
If so can we include them too?? Ahhh, cheesy Doritos and Adnams Summer Gold then taverymuch.
Either that or Gouldens Gold and Walkers SnV.
Homogenisation. Please see study on the subjuct in the link.

Qualitage...
kettle chips for me are a bit too greasy and crunchy.
i like the red sky crisps and McCoys are great if you ignore the nutrition advice on the back.
I also like smiths crisps that you salt yourself, chuck away the salt and you're left with greasy potatoes.
oh an artichokes on pizza are awesome.
Can I mention Pringles here, are they a proper crisp?
Love kettle chips, crushed up and mixed with grated cheese and onion and popped on top of a pasta bake for 10 mins for that perfect crunchy topping!
In the interests of research I've just eaten a packet of the jacket spud seabrook. They're not good! You should stick to what you know really. Its a bit like a group of northern blokes forsaking an evening of ale, darts and whippets to attend a contemporary dance event! It's never going to end well
Can I mention Pringles here, are they a proper crisp?
Yes you can.
No they are not.

Not that I doubted you but I remember this hitting the news for some reason and your right.
What about Twiglets? Not a crisp as such. A snackette that hurts after a few handfulls. Tasty mouth shredders.
Crisp Sandwiches - yay or nay?
[s]Tasty[/s] Nasty mouth shredders.
FTFY
Crisp sandwiches are best with seabrook salt and vinegar. They
make your teeth water
Crisps are now old hat.

Bizarre but totally addictive.

Crispo, your name suggests you are the font of knowledge on this subject. My apologies.
No you don't; you get something that's bin deep frozen for several centuries, some McCains if you're lucky, and Happy Shopper peas. Unles you live near Grimsby, and quite frankly, who wants to do that?
That not true, you just don't get charged a fiver for extra lettuce,
I accept the bit about Grimsby tho ๐
Jacket Potato and Sun Dried Tomato! Are they insane?
I may have misremembered (or made that up).
Olives are homo.
Depends where you're sticking 'em.
Crisp Sandwiches - yay or nay?
Yay!
Recently I've been rather partial to these

Veg crisps - get out, go away, no thanks and yuck generally!
Santacoops - quite alright. Youre pretty much spot on with the rest of your potato based snack views so ill forgive you this.
The tyrells popcorn is fantastic though clearly falls down on the fact it doesnt have any potato in it.
If you are going down the VegCrisps route then these are pretty good.

In fairness, I have eaten fish n chips in all sorts of places around England and Wales, from scabby local chippies to posh(ish) restaurants, and The Grapes' offerings are superb, and unbeatable for value imo. Simple, unpretentious food cooked properly.
Take Gordon Ramsey's The Narrow just down the road though; I won't go in there now, unless it's for a pint as they do Meantime beer in there. Now if you want overpriced, pretentious, soulless and poncified, then the Narrow is perfect. Microwaved pre-prepared food at restaurant prices. It's little more than a glorified canteen; noisy, impersonal and rushed.
People will turn their noses up at the Grapes, with it's authentic decor and a few smelly dogs, and go and get ripped off in The Narrow, thinking they're oh so sophisticated. Mugs. GR is laughing at you as he counts his money...
I accept the bit about Grimsby tho
It's sad though really isn't it? ๐
Grimsby
It's all in the name....
I dunno what passes for chip shops in That London these days, they had some damn fool ideas last I looked. However, I do know that one of the single most disappointing chippy teas I've ever had was from the "world famous" Harry Ramsden's. They're an offence to their trade. Frozen chips, for god's sake!
Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria...
We got sent some of these by some friends in the USA,

Proper mingin!!!!
I'm going to show them the joy of Walkers when they visit in a few weeks.
Anyone sampled these yet?
No i tried their chicken spicy meals though, pretty nice.
Kettle chips all the way for me. I don't eat crisps too often so don't mind the price.
Why do we need to import crisps for pete's sake?
Its a bit like a group of northern blokes forsaking an evening of ale, darts and whippets to attend a contemporary dance event!
Attend? We could stage one. A clog-stomping exploration of the pub snack. I'll bring a pickled egg.
there is only one winner
