Greatest crisps

[Josquius]

Purely speaking of standard crisps here. Your walkers/lays/whatever.
Doritos, monster munch, and the like need not apply.
I fully expect this to go well.

Home Chef Makes Mashed Potatoes With Boiled Chips; Here's The Right Way

[...]

Home chef Eli started the recipe by first adding salt and vinegar to a pot of boiling water. Then, he throws in a few bags of chips and allows it to cook, stirring continuously until soft and mushy. He proceeds to drain the potatoes, straining out the excess water and drinking it for no apparent reason. Next, he puts the mushy chips into a pan with some grated cheese and paprika. "Delicious," he exclaims at the end while trying his bizarre creation

This is so bizarre I'm half tempted to try it. I won't live it down if someone sees me doing it, though. Damn this lockdown.

Makes sense. Thanks.

My favorite are jalapeno flavored.

[Sheilbh]

Of the UK classics - cheese and onion.

Overseas - paprika or dill/spring onions.

In former Yugoslavia only - peanut flavoured crisps

[Monoriu]

I like BBQ, and sour cream and onion. 

Curry is great too. 

Thailand has a really nice rice cracker with pork floss. 

[HVC]

I'm going with the Canadian write in of ketchup. Which doesn't actually taste like ketchup

[Zanza]

Paprika

There used to be chips here with Bratlfett flavor, i.e. pork lard. They don't make them anymore.

Plain salt Lays Gourmet is the food of the gods.

There's a variant with black truffle that feels really decadent when you eat it, and might give you some regrets, but is sooooo gooood.

I tried these a while back, they were surprisingly good (the truffled cheese was the main taste, and the sparkling wine in the aftertaste):

[The Larch]

I could do without the sparkling wine, but the truffled cheese sounds delightful.

I think I've seen that brand in airport shops and the like, and some of their flavours are quite fanciful. 

[Josquius]

Yeah, Kettle are good. They've a far more rustic texture and just feel so much better than bog standard Walkers et al.
Sometimes they do really lean into this posh crisp vibe
