No idea why a crisp sandwich works so well but surely one of the greats.

What's the best though?

Personally I'm split between Quavers and Crispy Bacon Wheat Crunchies.

Any other contenders?
mulah
Bacon Wheat Crunchies are without doubt, the best.

With Walkers Chicken flavour in second place!
bluedave
I like Smoky Bacon or Roast Chicken but any flavour is good excepted just plain salted.

Salt and Vinegar Walkers - hands down.

Even better with a Chedder 'garnish' included and a Penguin for afters.
triumph bob
+1 on the salt and vinegar. Anything else is just plain cruelty to tastebuds.
bluedave
Now trying to think where the nearest Subway to me is so i can go and buy some Walkers, i'll get you for this Pas ya bugger. dry.gif
Crawlie
Nah. Walkers Prawn Cocktail for me. Well nice
cinzia
For those of us not in the know, what else goes on a crisp sandwich, besides the crisps?
ollya
mmmmmm really processed but soft white bread...cheap margarine a bit too thick..cheddar cheese, again erring in the slightly too thick side. salt and vinegar crisps ( walkers).
lightly crush in between the slices, open, add further crisps, close delicately and munch
Pas
Butter. But some may disagree...
SandraB
Walkers Smokey Bacon.
JOB
Salt and Vinegar Squares or Pickled Onion Monster Munch.

Bluedave- there is a subway now at Ostbahnhof and one on the corner of Grillparzerstr and Einsteinstr... there is also one in Reim Arcade.
bluedave
Yep, went to Ostbahnhof but fell under the spell of a durum instead. tongue.gif
Pas
Was that with quavers or wheat crunchies?
timezoner
Walkers Chicken flavour hands down , and when crips are scarce a nice HP brown sauce will suffice

( and Marg is a must ! )
Vikki87
walkers prawn cocktail with walkers salt n vinegar a VERY close 2nd!!! Mmmmmmmmmmm... crisp butties...
Renia
Can you get Walkers chicken here?
bluedave
Yup at Subway Renia or from Mik Dickinson failing that.
Renia

There's a bag of quavers with your name on it right here.
Renia
yes chips, "hot chips" are the ahem...hot ones.
GreenTea
Crisp sandwich? Didn't know there was such a thing. (Am I showing my age here or what?) Is that the first step on the slippery slope to fried Mars bar addiction?

Now, chip butties on the other hand ... MMMMMmmmmmmMMMMMMMmmmmmmm biggrin.gif
(an' ah'm tawkin' abaht wot us oop north calls chips, not ze German chips)
riri
Oh definitely tandragee castle tayto cheese and onion crisps (good old n. ireland version of tayto crips) within thick slices of proper white slice pan smeared with proper salty butter. Ah the memories of a good ol crisp buttie!!
englishrose
It has to be a egg salad (no salad inside of course ...just mushed hard boiled egg with salad cream) on thick buttered white sliced bread with Walkers salt and vinegar on the side AND inside...
Whoops if I were the proverbial man I may have to change my undies now!!! Yummee

"Bag of Quavers"? Is THAT what you call it on your island? wub.gif I had no idea! Didn't turn up in my handy-dandy urban dictionary.
Darkknight
I've had walkers.. They suck

If your still wanting good chips (Even have Salt/Vinegar) go for Kettle Chips. They can be found at most EDEKA's and Karlstadts, like the one in Hbf.
seanay
salt and Viniger walkers or smokey bacon walkers

i used to love beef and onion, but they changed it to stake and onion and they taste awful!!!
Pas
DK, The point is that have to be in a butty.

That kettle chips are better then walkers is pretty clear. With butter in a good pair of white slices. Different game.
englishrose
Dark Knight you will incense all the English foodies with that comment. Kettle crisps are dry and hard and are NOT Britain's number one crisp and NEVER will be!!! (SO stick that in your American Pecan Pie Icecream and smoke it... wink.gif )

That would be for halloween?
Darkknight
Sorry, But I like "Crunch" and taste, Kettle chips beat Walkers in that regard. This is my opinion. Others are entitled to their own.
Pas
But have you tried a crisp sandwich? Never seems to have crossed the cultural divide.

I wonder why walkers have never some up with the idea of a crisp butty fast food joint. Surely at least as good as McDonalds?

seanay

Do u put butter on your bread when making a sandwich or have it plain... i put butter
Darkknight
Like all the Other "Clears", it didn't do that well.. And was canned (HEHEHE) shortly after its launch.

You may wish to check your spelling. wink.gif
seanay

I would also advocate the use of butter in such circumstances - but I wouldn't kick a sarnie made with marge out of bed for making crumbs laugh.gif

Tab clear was thrown into a deep pit and buried for being utterly shit. Hopefully they'll do the same thing to the word "lol".
Peffanie
Smiths crinkle cut. Extra thickness makes for extra crunky. Chicken flavour, or cheese and onion, with a dlob of tomato sauce...
