    This is the ultimate showdown! No other chips may be considered. This is the Ford vs. Holden debate of chipdom!

    Red Rock Deli, they're the BMW of chips. We're classier than the bogan Samboys and Smiths eaters.

    anyone who has ever had tomato sauce samboys.

    well they're certainly as tough as rocks.
    they must test them at the nurburgring.

    Indeed - and there's other sorts that are so much better than smith or samboy...but I guess if RRD was included it would decimate the other two.

    I feel like samboy doesn't get the flavours quite right, and the actual chip just isn't up to snuff compared to smiths.

    Since Smiths makes Toobs now, they win by default. I don't see any competition.

    Because what's better than tiny cuts all over your mouth and tongue than having some salt and vinegar to rub into said cuts, eh?

    Nothing beats a couple of chip butties with some Red Rock Deli Salt and Vinegar chips. Also your teeth are there for chewing not the roof of your mouth and tongue :leet:.

    Samboys are that good Woolworths don't stock them to try increase market share of their own chips. Fuck you Woolworths.

    Depends on the flavor. Doritos > potato chips though.

    if I was a kid again then Samboy, but now Smiths.

    Actually, I'll get a packet of both and do a blind side by side test. I'll drink beer to get blind. Does anyone know where I can get a packet of placebo chips?

    Samboy Salt and Vinegar are amazing. Absolutely shit on anything Smiths make.

    The best chip however is Kettle's Chilli flavour (though they aren't what they used to be, but still great)
