I’m sure this has been debated here before but I’m bringing it up again after an argument in work…
King tastes nicer than tayto.. it’s the hill I’m willing to die on..
Tayto have no consistency in flavour. A good bag is like nothing else, but you can get a bad bag just as easily.
Depends on the batch…I feel there’s some high collared, paleish, yob accented, gargoyle trying to destabilise the GFA…im affraid this goes right to the top…tayto for the win!!
Depends though. I think King has an advantage normally. But a proper bag of Tayto would give King a run for its money.
Sell outs. Manhattan make the best Irish crisps in Ireland.
Just no
Keogh’s are much better than either of them.
Tayto was the first crisp brand in the world to flavour the crisps. Before the crisps came unflavoured with a flavour sachet in the packet. They also invented the cheese and onion flavour
YOU TAKE THAT BACK!!!
YOU TAKE THAT BACK ABOUT TAYTO!!!!
OP, about 4 or 5 years ago I would have agreed with you, but I think Tayto acquired King at some stage around then or sometime before and then switched the seasoning, so now Tayto taste nicer than King and King taste of weak disappointment, at to me and only in recent years.
I agree.
This is objectively true and anyone who disagrees is wrong and needs re-education.
A way fuller bag as well
Tayto are coasting on reputation nowadays
this man is trying to start a war
O’Donnell’s are better.
Name and address, your yard, sunrise.
Tayto cheese and onion are class. Their salt and vinegar are absolute muck, though.
Not just better but “Simply Superior”
It must be so painful, living your entire life being so wrong 🙁
1. Sixcountayto
2. King
3. Freestayto
This is blasphemy
The problem with King is that the taste is variable – Tayto are more consistent. However, when King get it right, they are phenomenal. One of the hardest things I’ve had to do is cut crisp sandwiches (with fresh Brennan’s and Kerrygold, natch) out of my diet…

Do Discos still exist? That fucking chemical sachet that came with it. Oh, how I miss the burn.
Tesco crisps are better because they are cheaper
I like both
Both good
Don’t buy the tayto Christmas box. Past 2 years I got them half the packets weren’t sealed properly. Swore never again. King on the other hand always exceed expectations.
Had a bag of King recently for the first time in ages. Very thin crisp and it just tastes like oil
They taste exactly the same
Jacket kings, green bag. Top notch side to a lovely pint

Pub king were better than any crisp in the 80s and 90s
A few years ago I would’ve agreed but Tayto these days are at least equal
O’Donnell’s > both
