How many crisps have you eaten in your lifetime?

[swordtrombonefish]

A great many

 

[Ingleby_Flash]

1 packet a week?

Since you were 20?

Why do you hate crisps so much?

I don’t , but I know I go weeks without any and then have a couple of packets a week sometimes. I discounted how many pre 20yo because we couldn’t afford them before I was about 18.

That's some going.
How's your cholesterol?

cholesterols fine, lots of other internal bits not so

Fair enough. I think you're a bit older than me.

Around 450,000 crisps

Christ, you can tell the football is crap….

I have to say that the younger generation will struggle to carch up with us. Shrinkflation has reduced the size of bags so much. I doubt their tongues could tolerate a really full pack of pickled onion as in the old days.

Crisps are crisps if the supermarket puts them in the crisp aisle. Just like biscuits are biscuits because they are in the biscuit aisle. If some fusty old judge thinks they are a cake let him find them in the cake aisle.

Hmm grab bags in service stations and tescos meal deals are huge.

 

[JackG]

Are they a maize based snack?

They are made from balsa wood

Even if you added all the above together, that works out to be rookie numbers.

I would probably be confident to say I’ve eaten at least my own body weight in crisps, several times over.

I am a crisp fiend.


Maybe.

I thought a million in 43 years was pretty decent going.

Do the little scrappy bits at the end which you funnel into your mouth count as individual crisps?

 

[Frankie Lee]

I’ve had a bag of crisps with literally every beer I’ve ever had. I’m sure my liver would tell me I’ve eaten more salt n vinegar square crisps than any other food in my lifetime.

Na they’re just crumbs. I’d say each unit has to be a minimum of 4 square centimetres.

Really? So if you had a 12 pint all dayer on a stag do, you’d wash down 12 packets of S&V with them?

 

[redcarbob]

Don’t you just love it when this happens!

 

[parmoboy]

Had to give up crisps because I'm really conscious about looking after my teeth these days. Still crave a packet of salt and vinegar squares every now and then.

Are they that bad for your teeth?

I am almost addicted to salt and probably not the only one on here, so I sometimes grave salted peanuts and once started on crisps very difficult to put down. Its probably contributed to my high blood pressure.
