Good luck at the winter Olympics sweetie, can't wait for the ice hockey, and everything else the Canadians are brill at, hope you and yours are well and safe, greetings from Glasgow, Shine on 🌹🦌✌️
Hi, Alanna, that was fun, I always enjoy your taste test videos, your face is so expressive as you try each one. Scoring system brilliant as always. I'm sure you found someone to help with the ones you didn't like.
Tayto prawn cocktail is by far the best brand in the UK/Ireland for that flavour, but its still an acquired taste. I love them, probably my favourite crisp/flavour.
I love how far you go in the name of science. The smokey bacon “ taste like butt “. I don’t know anyone who knows what butt tastes like. I salute your dedication to science.
Hi Alanna,you are really pushing the boat out and becoming very adventurous,sampling snacks from across the water..once again a very expressive and informative video.cheers Roly🇬🇧.
I love your videos, Alanna. I had a big smile all the way through this one. I think I am in agreement with you. The classic crisp is the best format (no puffs please), and salt and vinegar the best flavour. (Although, just salt is a close second.) I think we have some salt and vinegar crisps in the kitchen. I will go and look. Don’t wait up for me. 😄
I had to grab my 'nice N spicy Nik Naks' to eat while watching. Granted, not Irish. BUT I had a family friend bring me some 'Tayto CRINKLE CUT chip shop curry' crisps unexpectedly last night - which I also paused the video as I wrote this after I went downstairs to retrieve one, to eat with you. You havent been on my feed for a while and wrote you on a video you posted a couple of days ago, and got a reply from you. SO Its been too long since I watched you and by extension you tasting snacks. This is areal treat. CRUNCH CRUNCH
You should get down to your local eastern European shop and get a load of fancy Lays crisps to try out. Pickle is a particularly good one. (Just watch the packet sizes as they tend to be 100g and up.)
Great video Alanna, your expanding smile as your tastebuds get a kick is just priceless. 😋 It seems to break out around your mouth then spread across the whole of your face ending with your eyebrows blooming lol. Conversely when the snack "tastes like butt" the skin above your nose between your eyes wrinkles up so intensely, it's hilarious.
Hi Alanna. I don't always comment as i've been with you almost from the beginning, so it's hard to think of something new or original to say after 5+ years. Take it as a given that I always look forward to your weekly video and enjoy them immensely. I count you as a bright spark in my candle box of life :-)
God I love this channel of all the channels I subscribe to yours is one of a few that get excited about when I see the notification pop up on my phone, your a natural! Thanks for the content!
I live about 6 miles away from the Tayto factory at Tandragee castle so pass it quite often. They run tours there so you can see the crisps being made. Like you, my favourite flavour is salt n vinegar, although I do also like the smokey bacon and spicy Thai ones too. Not a fan of Cheese n Onion, although it is their most popular flavour. You should look out for the ridge versions - very nice and very moreish! 😃 Incidently, there is a Tayto crisp company in the Republic of Ireland but they are DIFFERENT companies and the flavours are slightly different too. There is also Tayto Park, an amusement theme park to explore there as well.
Went to Dublin last year, trying Tayto was one of the things I was most excited about. Brought back some for my family but they didn't seem all that impressed
I love a good taste test video when I think you’ve done them all in comes Aaron, thank you so much to him and I hope I spelled his name correctly if not I am sorry. Thanks for the video, I hope you have a great week.
Really enjoyed this & has made me want to try these for myself. Always enjoy a good crnchy crisp, complimented by a good hearty sandwhich & a pint. Never heard of club drinks, only club I know of are the choclate bars which I haven't had for some time
Yep, I definitely like a simple classic crisp too and you can't go too far wrong with a nice strongly flavoured salt and vinegar. Strange that all the attempts at meaty crisps just don't quite get the flavours right isn't it? Thanks for another great video Alanna!
bikers and prawn cocktail are literally the best, in my home in ireland theyll be eaten first and then smokey bacon and ready salted will sit in the box for weeks.
You educated me with this one, Alanna! I've been to Ireland (both Northern and the Republic) but I've never sampled the delights of their snacks. They go in for fish and chips in a big way over there, incidentally, so you would enjoy yourself if you were to visit.
Tayto Cheese and Onion and Salt & Vinegar Standard Crisps are absolute classics! So yes you definitely picked the best ones. Whenever I go to Ireland to visit family, I always bring back a Tayto Multipack - Nice Video!
I don't eat a lot of crisps but these look great! Agree with the meat crisp opinion with the exception of Tesco Bacon Rasher crisps, which I love lol... Not a massive fan of orange flavoured pop, rather have a raspberry cola, mmmm... Great video 😄
I live on the South Coast of England and I have for many years had to trek over for several days at a time, many times a year to Northern Ireland. It may be for work but really the reason I go primarily is for Tayto Wuster Sauce Crisps. They are the absolute best, I was so annoyed when Walkers stopped making them in the rest of the UK. You need Wuster Sauce Tayto's in your life - things will seem even better!!
Hi Alanna, what you need to try, trust me, is a crisp and jam butty. Take two pieces of thick white bread. Spread butter on each. Spread fruity jam (I suggest Raspberry Seedless) then add a regular packet of Cheese and Onion Crisps. Close the sandwich. Your tastebuds are gonna love you.
Not often I get nostalgic from an Adventures & Naps video but this one is the exception. I grew up in Scotland with an Irish dad and so spent several summers over there with relatives. First thing I wanted to do every time I arrived there was to eat some Tayto crisps, cheese & onion for preference. I don't remember Club orange from way back then but every time I've taken the car over on the ferry as an adult I've come home with several 2l bottles along with the boxes of crisps. So to answer your question, " Are Irish crisps better than British ones?" Yes they are, as long as they're Tayto.
Watching your reactions is the most fun, especially when you get one where your face says what the hell !! 😂 I was on that train and at the end realized I was super hungry - now reaching into my draw for my hidden stash of choc bars 😄
Thanks Alanna!, enjoyed the reactions as always. Are the Snacks shelves at the local Supermarket 'World Food' aisle going to get a visit from you sometime please?!
When I was a kid you could get Mr noodles for 15 cents from IGA. We would crush them up and add the sodium packet then shake the bag and eat em raw LOL good times...
TAYTO are probably the most common crisp brand in Northern Ireland ( technically part of the UK ) . So I am surprised that they are difficult to obtain in the rest of the UK ( quite common in the republic of Ireland though ) . I believe Tayto were the first in the world to offer a cheese & onion flavour for crisps / chips back in the mid 1950's . The I've found that this flavour is quite characteristic and not quite like cheese & onion from other brands and I regard it as their best flavour . Their others being very similar to competing brands . Great vid as always . You're a natural ☺
I've never seen them on sale in the UK. I know an Irish lady who always brings back a box whenever she visits Ireland. On visits to Ireland I didn't pay any attention to the crisps and sweets on sale........ That's a good excuse to visit Ireland again.
Im here from reddit, someone posted this on an ireland subreddit, they said this video was funny and your channel is good. They were right! The account that posted it was called Aaron it might be the same one that sent you the crisps?!
Great as usual, but I'm not used to the over the pond word, Flaver full, it just sounds wrong, never heard it before reaction vlogs became a thing in life 😂 Oh god no, oh why Tastes of butt 😂
Paul O'Brien sounds great. Ever tried a bread roll with. Dairylee squares or whatever your preference back to the crisp sarnie butter. The. Bread add square cheese. Or what's available ABIT of raw onion put. The. Crisps. Enjoy
@@AdventuresAndNaps I don't know if you've got a Home Bargains near you, but i was in my local one earlier this evening and they had a multi-pack of 6 Tayto Cheese & Onion for £1.09. So, i bought some on your recommendation - very nice.
Thanks for sharing your amazing vlog Alanna :) I look forward as always your next future vlogs :) you should consider of visiting Ireland ☘️🇮🇪 One day by ferry across either to Dublin or Belfast 👍
Alanna, the Prawn Cocktail crisps taste like ketchup because it's trying to emulate the flavour of "cocktail sauce" which is a dip for prawns that is based on ketchup.
I'm late on this one but my favorite chips or crisps would be bbq and sour cream and onion and it does not matter which brand or what kind of chip/crisp it is.
Yay! Crisps from my neck of the woods! You're officially making me homesick! Tayto Castle in Tandragee was where many of my school friends took summer jobs. There's a difference between Northern Ireland Tayto and Republic of Ireland Tayto though but from what I can see of the packaging you've got the "proper" ones from Tandragee. The Mr Potato logo is different on them. You've inadvertently stepped on a proverbial minefield though with the video title as you're eating British crisps (being from Northern Ireland), not Irish. I get the confusion but you may need to brace yourself for some ranty comments! lol. Think of it as someone claiming a Canadian Maple Syrup product as being American! Key question though...where on earth did you get all that over here? I used to cram luggage with Tayto Onion Rings as nowhere in England sold it. I don't know if it's still there, but it used to be that if you flew into Belfast the first thing you saw in the terminal was a large sign saying "Welcome home to the taste of Tayto!".
Agree with you "proverbial minefield" comment lol. I think Alana was having an "American" moment!! By the way, my missus is from Tandragee and has no problem getting Tayto crisps here in London, mind you, she does live in "County Kilburn!!"
@@andysavill8580 I've woken up with headaches over the years after spending time in Kilburn lol. Some Tescos stock Cheese and Onion but that's where the variety seems to end. Spring Onion and Onion Rings were my goto. I'd love to see the comments had "brown" lemonade made it onto the list. That's the one I find has caused the most confusion over the years!
I may never get the chance to try any Tayto products so thanks for filling in that void through your thorough assessment. I like cheese and onion crisps but never eat actual cheese and onion together.
Great stuff Al. Crisps are the stuff of life. When I was growing up in the 60/70's, there were local crisps in almost every town in England (not sure about the other UK nations) with 3 nationwide brands - Smiths, KP & Golden Wonder. Walkers were only to be found in Leicestershire & borders until the 1980's and were worth the trip as they were tastylicious (modern Walkers are cardboard travesties by comparison). Your observation about the prawn cocktail/ketchup is spot on. Tomato ketchup flavour crisps were introduced in the early 70's but flopped. Shortly thereafter, identical crisps called prawn cocktail appeared and were a hit, as prawn cocktail was a hugely popular, exotic starter back in those days. I love Tayto's, partly for the hilarious name, but the best (in my opinion) Irish crisps are Kings, especially their cheese & onion - find some and try. Mmmmmmmm, crisps, droool
@@geoffpoole483 They were until the mid 80's, before they went national. I think they're now made in Co Durham by a US company but they're still synonymous with Leicestershire, hence Gary Lineker and the Walkers (now King Power) stadium.
Hey Alanna sorry not been watching as been very busy. I’m back to watching your vids again and love them :-) Btw please note there is always a difference between ‘flavour and flavoured’ crisps. One is fake flavourings and the other means it uses real items. Also sorry but I hate cheese and onion flavour lol. Also tayto are the best crisps and I’m British!!
Im actually recording an International Chips taste testing video this friday and now you have me all excited for that LOL. I wish you lived close to me so we could do the video together LOL.
This felt like your old school taste tests before you ran out of normal British snacks to try 😆 Maybe you should start tasting things from around the world?
Hi Alanna great channel, subscriber for about 4 years. I once did a search for the ultimate beef or steak flavoured crisp, cos although they’re not terrible mostly they don’t really tast of beef and or steak! Except one I found did and they were really good. The brands I tried were walkers, brannigans, hula hoops, McCoy’s, Disco’s, monster munch, and Royston’s….I won’t give away the answer in case you feel like taking up the challenge for science, but personally I thought it a worth while quest. Take care
I love Taytos. Unfortunately I can only get salt and vinegar and cheese and onion flavour here in Australia. However since I can’t get hold of British crisps and Australian crisps in those flavours are very greasy I find they are as close to a taste of home that is reasonable money can buy. The Irish have really great it right here.
Where is the packaging from, that is not the same as the packaging we have here in dublin. Oh btw i just finished a bag of prawn cocktail tayto, my fav flavour. 💗
Taste test videos along with your your very unique rating system are always the best Alanna. We all new that Salt & Vinegar crisps would win out with Cheese and Onion running a close second & all washed down with a cheeky Orange pop but I've said it before and I will say it again Prawn Cocktail flavour snacks no, just no and that is all I have to say on the matter. 🍤🍸😀
I moved to the UK in 1986 and the one thing I miss most from Ireland is Tayto crisps.
That was so cool! Your taste tests are always fun! Thanks so much for trying the snacks! It was a lot of fun picking out snacks for you!
Thanks so much for sending them!
Good luck at the winter Olympics sweetie, can't wait for the ice hockey, and everything else the Canadians are brill at, hope you and yours are well and safe, greetings from Glasgow, Shine on 🌹🦌✌️

Hello 👋
An Irish childhood delicacy was and still is, white bread, butter and a bag of Tayo Cheese&Onion. Yum!

as a Brit living in Kilkenny,Ireland i can confirm Tayto rock ! they are so good ! btw,all crisps regardless of brand are called Tayto over here !
I love your videos, Alanna. I had a big smile all the way through this one.
I think I am in agreement with you.
The classic crisp is the best format (no puffs please), and salt and vinegar the best flavour. (Although, just salt is a close second.)
I think we have some salt and vinegar crisps in the kitchen. I will go and look. Don’t wait up for me. 😄
Oh yes, Mr. Noodles, a classic recess snack! These videos always give me cravings for chips. The Tayto potato person is fun.
Soooo Funny Alanna.... Your facial expressions are a Delight to see... :-))) xxx
Thanks for watching!
This is the only channel where I can see a rating scale out of 8.5. That's what keeps bringing me back!
😂 Thanks for watching!
Taytos Cheese and Onion are the best! Along with Kimberly Mikados and a Rock Shandy

You should get down to your local eastern European shop and get a load of fancy Lays crisps to try out. Pickle is a particularly good one. (Just watch the packet sizes as they tend to be 100g and up.)
The caustic after burn from S&V crisps is the taste of quality. And Spicy Biker Flavour is a great name too👌
Great video, Alanna. Tayto's have a "curry chip" snack you should try, if you get the chance, though I don't think it would be your fave!
Ahh that's incredible!! Sounds awful but would love to try!
Great video Alanna, your expanding smile as your tastebuds get a kick is just priceless. 😋 It seems to break out around your mouth then spread across the whole of your face ending with your eyebrows blooming lol.

Great .Many thanks ...

Went to Dublin last year, trying Tayto was one of the things I was most excited about. Brought back some for my family but they didn't seem all that impressed
Only thing about Tayto is I like ready salted but couldn't find any.
That's a shame! At least they could try them, that's always fun
Tayto in Southern Ireland don’t have a Ready Salted - Northern Ireland Tayto ( a different company) *do* have a ready salted.
Didn’t know there were two companies.We get Tayto crisps at Home Bargains in England. They’re all from Tandragee.
If I'm not mistaken Tayto used to make Boots the chemist crisps for their meal deals some year's ago
Hi Alanna, you mightn't know, but Tayto also owns Golden Wonder and some other snack companies in the UK.
I didn't know, thanks for sharing!
I love a good taste test video when I think you’ve done them all in comes Aaron, thank you so much to him and I hope I spelled his name correctly if not I am sorry. Thanks for the video, I hope you have a great week.

In no time at all we'll have Alanna sitting next to Dermot or Ciara trying irish cocktails.
Another great video to just sit back and enjoy. Thanks, Alanna.

Totally!! I did a "World Foods" snacks video before, but it's been too long!

@@AdventuresAndNaps it's how I first started watching A+N 💯
Hey Alanna sorry not been watching as been very busy. I’m back to watching your vids again and love them :-)
Btw please note there is always a difference between ‘flavour and flavoured’ crisps. One is fake flavourings and the other means it uses real items.
Also sorry but I hate cheese and onion flavour lol.
Also tayto are the best crisps and I’m British!!
Helpful and enormously friendly comment, due to the Onion and Cheese face!
Thanks so much for watching!
@@AdventuresAndNaps I even watched again on this account. :)
Im actually recording an International Chips taste testing video this friday and now you have me all excited for that LOL. I wish you lived close to me so we could do the video together LOL.
This felt like your old school taste tests before you ran out of normal British snacks to try 😆
Maybe you should start tasting things from around the world?
Never had Irish snacks before but I have tried Irish whiskey Jamesons I have to confess I still prefer a Scotch or bourbon.🥃
Hi Alan from Brisbane Australia
@@greghilton7797 wow hi greg another Hilton we seem to be a rare breed.
Excellent!
Thank you!
I so love your taste vids" the look on your face when you don't like the taste is a picture!
You should do more?
Thanks so much for watching! Lots more coming!
Hi Alanna great channel, subscriber for about 4 years. I once did a search for the ultimate beef or steak flavoured crisp, cos although they’re not terrible mostly they don’t really tast of beef and or steak! Except one I found did and they were really good. The brands I tried were walkers, brannigans, hula hoops, McCoy’s, Disco’s, monster munch, and Royston’s….I won’t give away the answer in case you feel like taking up the challenge for science, but personally I thought it a worth while quest. Take care
That's intriguing!! I'll add it to my list - thanks so much for watching!
I'm sure I've had Tayto's years ago. Don't know if they sell them by me anymore but watching this has made me want to try them out again 😀
Tayto ready salted are awesome. I reckon Prawn Cocktail is as weird to you as All-Dressed is to us...
Fair enough!
Q: What's Tayto's, precious? What's Tayto's?
A: PO-TAY-TO'S! Crisp 'em, spiral 'em, make 'em into bike wheels!
❤️🥔
"We wants it. We needs it. Must have the precious Taytos. They stole it from us. Sneaky little Alannases. Wicked. Tricksy!" ;-)
😂 oh my godddd that's perfect
I love Taytos. Unfortunately I can only get salt and vinegar and cheese and onion flavour here in Australia. However since I can’t get hold of British crisps and Australian crisps in those flavours are very greasy I find they are as close to a taste of home that is reasonable money can buy. The Irish have really great it right here.
Good video. We do love 'taste test' Alanna style.
Thanks for watching!
Ive heard of the TAYTO brand but have never tried it before !!!! Im from Canada BTW and im Iranian.
Tayto should DEFINITELY sponsor you - a true crisp connoisseur and ambassador 👌
I wish!! 😂
Off topic, but i just discovered a Tim Hortons in Ipswich and tried the Timbits. Yum!
Ahh exciting! None in Kent, yet - but soon, I think!
Where is the packaging from, that is not the same as the packaging we have here in dublin. Oh btw i just finished a bag of prawn cocktail tayto, my fav flavour. 💗
You eat your crisps like Quentin Smirhes eats his biscuits, not a bad thing I may add. Great channel by the way.
Thanks for watching!
Taste test videos along with your your very unique rating system are always the best Alanna. We all new that Salt & Vinegar crisps would win out with Cheese and Onion running a close second & all washed down with a cheeky Orange pop but I've said it before and I will say it again Prawn Cocktail flavour snacks no, just no and that is all I have to say on the matter. 🍤🍸😀
The prawn cocktail ones taste of ketchup cos prawn cocktail sauce (aka marie rose sauce) is 50% ketchup.
