      i would love to agree with you but since tayto changed the oil for "health" reasons, they taste nasty! they used to be the best crisps anywhere, but now i wouldn`t touch them and i don`t understand why they are so bad,other crisps changed their oil at the same time and it had no affect on the flavour but tayto taste rancid.
