From now on, bags of Tayto will feature the flavour as Gaeilge

Mála brioscáin phrátaí faoi bhlas cáise agus oinniúin, más é do thoil é.

Tayto Gaeilge Tayto Tayto

THE NEXT TIME you’re enjoying a pack of Tayto, look closely at the bag, because it’s undergone a slight but significant change.

From now on, new bags of Tayto will feature the Irish translation of the flavour underneath the English one:

taytoirish Tayto Tayto

brioscáin Tayto Tayto

So the bags will say “Brioscáin Phrátaí Faoi Bhlas…

  • Cáise & Oinniúin (Cheese and Onion);
  • Salainn & Finéagair (Salt and Vinegar);
  • Bagúin Dheataithe (Smoky Bacon);
  • Nó Manglaim Cloicheán (Prawn Cocktail).”

Tayto previously released bags as Gaeilge to mark St Patrick’s Day last year:

taytogael Tayto Tayto

The same was done for Seachtain na Gaeilge in 2013, along with a bit of retro packaging.

Those were limited edition packs, but the latest Irish translation is a permanent feature. The crispmakers also said that they want it to add it to more of their range of crisps and snacks in the future.

    Jeez what depressing people. Fair play to anyone who tries to get something moving in this country. It’s so hard when you are routinely met with comments like the above!

    @Nick Caffrey: or ripped off, they don’t know how to add value but talk bollox in this isle. was always the problem here, over price themselves, nobody interested. market too small but at that, they forget we’re not that materialistic anymore. sad i know, but priorities come first.
