Squares - like trying to eat vinegar flavoured razor blades.

Chipsticks - too greasy.
McCoys - I don't do corrugated crisps.
Pringles - taste like cardboard.

1993 era sonic the hedgehog branded salt and vinegar snack - had a pack at the time and can still remember the everlasting aftertaste.

Pom bears used to be banging.
Now they just taste like salty oil. Literally nothing else going for them.

For the record, I strawberry floating hate Chip sticks.
Powdery sticks of vinegar with the consistency of a Cadbury flake.

In terms of an actual pack it would have to be a bag of prawn cocktail Walkers I bought in the Kensington area of Liverpool in 2008. After leaving the shop but in too much of a rush to go back and complain I found the bag had been resealed with pritt stick and I'm pretty sure they were actually roast chicken flavour.

I am quite happy to eat most crisps but I'd say my least favourite category of flavour is roast meat - it just seems like they've dipped the crisps in gravy powder.

This is a good thread for me. Until now I thought it was impossible to actually dislike crisps. Sure...the roast chicken Walkers is a poor relation to the Salt And Vinegar Kettle Chip....doesnt mean I wouldnt happily eat the roast chicken flavour.

That was until I ate Dorito Stax. My god. Gamechangingly awful.

Walkers once did sausage and onion flavour (circa 1986), the crisps weren't too bad but the occasion I first tried them was on the day where I picked up a stomach bug from something I ate at school and spent most of the evening vomitting into my nans kitchen sink.

Ever since then I can't think of the crisps without getting the taste of sausage-y vomit (strawberry float off no context thread) in the back of my throat.

The new crunch wotsists are excellent. Pure wotsit flavour but in a Nik nak like crunchy snack.

Worst is probably Pringles bacon flavour,.not enough flavour dust. More of a hint of a pig rather than the full pig experience that I crave.

Wish my image sig would work

I like most flavours but I don't have them often.

I thought Pom-Bears are a discount version of crisps made to look slightly less inedible by being roughly shaped like a bear?

Anything that mentions beef or steak in a crisp is a personal no no. It’s like eating dry gravy and that’s not a compliment.

Chilli heatwave Doritos. They are so over rated and frankly just crap.

All Doritos are pretty bad. I had some "cheese" ones last weekend. They tasted like cardboard covered in "cheese".
