I think i may have had cassava crisps. Quite sweet iirc?

Nah. Plantain's generally the sweet chip, although the same places often manufacture cassava chips as well - look out in your local asian or west indian grocer.

Cassave chips tend to be thinner, paler, almost translucent in colour at times. And they're very crispy indeed, almost too sharp for the thinner-gummed.

I'm admittedly not keen on it boiled. But I'm not a great fan of boiled spuds or most root veg either.

yeah I had it (presumably) boiled as it was mashed up, had it in some little tapas bar in Islington.
