We did a test last Friday at our young people's club to see who produces the best ready salted crisps in the UK. We tested 10 products available in the immediate area and rated them on texture and taste. These wee the results:1. Pringles (introduced in 1968 they are made by Diamond Foods, once part of Proctor & Gamble. Pringles are legally not crisps as they contain only 42% potato).
2. Walkers Extra Crunchy (Walkers began in the 1948 and is now a subsisidiary of Pepsi Cola. Their crisps are the most popular in the UK).
3. Walkers Crinkles
4. Walkers
5. Hula Hoops (introduced in 1973, they are made by KP snacks)
6. Real McCoys (UK's third biggest brand in the bagged snacks market, made by United Biscuits)
7. Kettle Crisps (founded in 1978 and America's biggest potato chip brand they are now owned by Diamond Foods. Their UK base is in Norwich.)
8. Seabrook Crisps (Bradford based company founded in 1945 by C[harles] Brook)
9. Slovakia Chips (from the local Polish shop)
10. Tesco's Finest

Not sure if they're available in London, but Tayto Cheese n' Onion (made in Ulster, in a castle!) are hard to beat. Will send a free sample on request!!!
