OK Gaf... three questions:

• Do you prefer Jays* or Lay's for regular potato chips?
  
• What's your favorite regular potato chip, if not one of those two?
  
• What's your favorite chip, period, potato or other, "regular" or otherwise?

EDIT:
* Turns out it's a regional brand. Substitute your own dominant regional brand here!

[Phat Michael]

Samboys, smith's and kettles for me.

But yeah, try to stay away from junk food but Damn I love crisps.

 

[Alucrid]

1. the fuck is jays

2.

but i guess it's a regional thing and all you suckers don't have them

2. them kettle jawns

 

[Anoregon]

The motherfucking boss:

Lays isn't fit to be in the same store as this manna.

 

[Hip Hop]

I prefer these lays:

as far as my favorite chips, these are the best ones, found in Mexico. The Doritos in the U.S. are so "dry" in taste compared to these. They have a hint of jalapeno.

 

[BrightEyedPanic]

Kettle cooked all day long

 

[Sakura]

Not sure what Jays is so I will go with Lays...
Hmm favourite brand? Probably Old Dutch or Doritos.
Favourite types would be All Dressed, Dill Pickle, Ketchup, Doritos Bold BBQ, or Kettle Cooked Jalapeno and Chedder.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Sea Salt and Vinegar. Not picky about brand.

 

[CrankyJay]

I actually saw a special on potato chips last night...it blew my mind...

Fritos ...Cheetos...Doritos...I had no idea they all used the same naming structure.

1. the fuck is jays

Huh! I always thought Jays was a national brand.

Jays Foods has 23 percent share of the potato chip market in Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Missouri, Minnesota and Iowa and over 60 percent market share in the "ready-to-eat" popcorn category.[

I've learned something from my own thread.

I love Kettle Chips.

Don't eat chips often but when I do it's either

What is a Jay's?

Utz

Mother of god

 

[Zen_Arcade]

UTZ is the best potato chip brand.

Regular potato chips are too plain. They're not bad, but I see no reason to eat them over flavored chips.

BBQ are probably my favorite chip type. Sour Cream & Onion is a close second.

 

[InfiniteBento]

I love these:

never seen them on the east coast

 

[Anoregon]

Utz and Cape Cod are good too. The Utz dark russets are particularly bangin..

 

[Lourio]

Any kettle cooked chip for me. Dat crunch.

 

[KingGondo]

The motherfucking boss:

Lays isn't fit to be in the same store as this manna.

These are good, but these:

are better.

 

[bennywhatever]

Cape Cod makes some dang good potato chips. Particularly these:

I'm not a fan of Lays or Jays... they seem so greasy and nasty.

 

[HylianTom]

I am not much of a potato chip guy.. but a bag of these doesn't last very long in our house. They're diabolically good.

 

[JordanN]

I stopped eating chips, but back when I did, I use to crave this stuff.

 

[studyguy]

I prefer chips made with Olestra that ensure I'll be dropping a duce during my mid afternoon drive while in the car.

 

[Davey Cakes]

Lays "40% less fat" Sea Salt & Vinegar kettle chips. Right in line with Cape Cod.

Really great crunch, not greasy to the touch.

Kettle versions of all chips (Kettle brand, Lays, Cape Cod) are superior to standard. Flavor selection needs improvement though for the "40% less fat" versions but it's getting there. If you don't care about a little bit of grease on your chip then Kettle Brand's flavor selection is impressive and growing.

Regular yellow-bag Lays chips, in 2015, are an abomination.

 

[aceface]

These are good, but these:

are better.

What where how

We have kettle around here but never seen that

 

[Neverfade]

Utz in my gutz all day.

 

[redmetal86]

Never heard of Jays, so Lays I guess, although I don't like regular lays all that much. Anything salt and vinegar I like.

 

[John Kowalski]

dang i could go for some salty chips right now

 

[kunonabi]

What is a Jay's?

Utz

This is my go-to chip. Super hard to find in Texas though.

 

[Divvy]

I stopped eating chips, but back when I did, I use to crave this stuff.

This

1000x this

and the Jalapeno one:

It's the best

 

[sensui-tomo]

Kettle chips , the people above know whats up.
and my favorite flavors are usually BBQ and either original with sour cream and onion dip... or that flavor.

 

[KingGondo]

What where how

We have kettle around here but never seen that

I usually get them at Whole Foods. They also weirdly stock them at 7-11, but I'm not complaining.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

My favourite crisps are cheese & onion squares.

 

[CrankyJay]

none of those are potato chips

yah, well it was the history of the potato chip and those companies....so NYAH

 

[Anoregon]

What where how

We have kettle around here but never seen that

I can't recall having seen them either. I am HIGHLY skeptical that I would like them more than the buffalo, but I'll certainly snag a bag if I can.

I also fucking loved the loaded baked potato flavor, but they stopped making it

RIP, you delicious bastard.

Huh! I always thought Jays was a national brand.

What is this?

Trying to profit off the Lays name and the York logo?

Potato Chips

What is a Jay's?

Utz

I'm a huge fan of Utz, though I never see them in Ohio. Our regional chip variety are alright. Best chips though are these:

These don't last more than 30mins after purchase. So fucking good.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

these

Square, flat crisps.

Predates York Peppermint Patties by a couple decades. Predates the renaming of Lay's by a few years.

Also, was apparently named Japp's after the founder, but changed names during WWII.

 

[DopeToast]

Mike Sells is a good Dayton brand, and Cincinnati has Grippo's which are also good and we can get those up here. If I'm going for a big brand I would get those ridged cheddar Ruffles. So good.

Cool Ranch Doritos are my all time though, except or maybe fresh tortilla chips with salsa.

 

[jwk94]

All I need

This or bust.

 

[Einbroch]

GOAT. So good.

Miss Vickies Jalapeno and sweet and sour are the two best/most addictive.
