Yeah, I don't see Crisps as food, but I guess it's not really worse than fries or fried potatoes or pancakes. So quite bad.

They are definitely worse than fried Potatoes, unless you fry your potatoes in a lot of fat.

I am horrified.  I was shocked when I encountered the "tato" plant in fallout 4.  I thought only in a game would people shorten "potato" to "tato". 

I just learned that some people shortened "potato" to "tayto" in real life.  This is beyond morally reprehensible. 

I have no words.

You had 46.

Not a fan of flavored chips.  BBQ is OK if pressed.

I call them taters.

To answer the question, these are the best 'crisps':

Kettle style are a superior chip.  All brands are the same to me.

All of them kick ass, but for some reason Grandma Utz is better.  Can't get them down here. :(

I had an English colleague once that ate a handful of crisps and a sandwich for lunch each day. Boggles the mind.

A sandwich, a bag of potato chips (crisps, if you must) and a cookie is a pretty standard box lunch for conferences in the like here in the states, so that doesn't seem that weird.

Some burger places here serve only fresh chips/crisps instead of fries/chips as sides, which I find annoying.

Actually, I agree that the fresh ones often aren't as good as the ones out of bags.  Seems like that shouldn't be the case, but it is. :hmm:

Utz chips are delicious but Ruffles Original-Style, as garbs posted, is the One True King.

Salt and Vinegar is the best. Unfortunately Korea hates them, so I have to import from overseas. They have a bunch of the normal flavors, but the one that Korea loves the best is the Honey Butter Chip.  :yuk:
