    I don't mind getting the stuff out of between my teeth. It's part of the experience.

    I'm torn between what to call them. On the one hand, they are chips to me because I grew up in NZ where they are called chips. On the other hand, I can appreciate how the British people wanted to have a way of seperating chips and hot chips. I call them crisps over here on the "When in Rome" method, however sometimes I still say 'chips' out of habit and people get a little confused.

    ...are there really places in this world that don't sell fish and chips? Or call them 'fish and chips'? O_o

    I tend to favour the British despite Australia also adhering to the "everything is a chip" mindset.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    And these are the best ones.
    Those do not exist here, but I fail to see how cheddar and sour cream could be better than spicy ketchup.

    Sorry Lockhearted! Actually, having said that, I had a bit of a crisp binge and ate two packets one after each other. They don't cram enough of those things in there!

    I've had those weird ketchup chips and they are terrible. You must bow before the cheddar and sour cream.

    There is something very wrong with you. Did a ketchup chip molest you as a child?

    Hot SMURFING darn.

    Alright, Eyes On Britfags.
    Get your arses down to the nearest supermarket and pick up Tyrrell's Ludlow Sausage & Mustard Crisps. "Perfect with a pint of ale" they say (I just had 5, but I digress). They are smurfing gorgeous. Get them now.

    Don't look at me like that! I'm swearing at you for a smurfing reason. Get it done.

    Kettle chips (specifically the sea salt and balsamic vinegar ones) are the worst thing ever invented because it's damn near impossible to stop eating them. They're far too addictive.

    I'm quite partial to Walkers cheese and onion, McCoys salt and vinegar and - the king of crisps- any flavour of Monster Munch. I also have a soft spot for pickled onion Space Raiders.

    Chips are ok, I don't really eat them that much. Beef jerky is where it's at.

    Because I'm one hell of a butler.
