Until I read this thread I thought I was the only person who put vinegar on first and then salt! I've never known anyone else do that and they look at me like I'm barmy when I say it's the right way to do it. No, I'm told, it says "salt and vinegar" not "vinegar and salt"

Thank you to all those sensible people out there who can see the logic of making your chips damp with the vinegar first so the salt stays on instead of washing the salt off with the vinegar afterwards.

That "non-brewed condiment" is weird stuff. Anybody know what it's made from? It doesn't taste of anything.

On the subject of vinegar needing to be an evaporating liquid for it to hit the spot, how come salt and vinegar crisps taste vinegary?
