70's & 80's CRISPS
 

I've just come back from a rather interesting luncheon where the topic of converstation turned to Crisps!! We were debating our favoured snack from the 70's & 80's and whether they were still available.
My personal favorite has to be "PIGLETS" in Bacon & Bean flavour, MMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Also, Salt & Vinegar "RINGOS", what ever happened to all these amazing snacks. I'm pretty sure that neither are made anymore but I might just e-mail the mfr. to see what can be done!! :D

What Crisp do you remember fondly?

mmmmmmmmmmmm ringos.

I also remember hedgehog flavor crisps, very nice.

Jakes Pub Crisps, Worcestershire sauce flavour , mmmmm :)

Prawn cocktail flavour....................mmmmmmmmmmmm, like eating a very old pair of dirty knickers:D:


Alcazar

nope, nope, nope.. all wrong..

Spicy Tomato SNAPS!

The KING of crisps..

Only last week I was wondering what happened to Bacon and Bean flavoured Piglets, they were my favourite in junior school :)

Golden Wonder "Kung Fu" ... ball-shaped cheese flavour corn snacks. Sort of like Wotsits ... but not :D

I loved Smiths Bovril Crisps

Sadly Walkers did not continue them when they bought out Smiths

What about "Farmer Browns" & "Whickers" then, where did they all go?????? :(

Don't get me started on Cheese & Tomato "Puffs" as these were a daily 10p tuck shop purchase for years.

Nik Naks

Nik Naks, love em, the nice n spicy ones are great.

Flaming Hot Monster Munch is also a big big fave :)

Bring back Ringos - Who was it that made them ??

The ones were you got a little blue bag of salt inside the packet. The novelty never seemed to wear off. :D

Something I miss here are salt & vinegar chipsticks.

Salt n vinegar space invaders :D

Marmite Thins.... mmmmm

salt and vinegar chip sticks:)
salt and shake

Gammon crisps, or do they still do them?

fish and chips! used to be in a mog up newspaper bag, found em again recently but in a plain old red packet.

Remember Bits Of Pizza? Fooking horrible LOL.

Just cheese flavour, Smiths did them IIRC?

What about Chipmunk OXO flavour. They were brill.

Pickled Onion Monster Munch. Two bags of these and your breath would be able to make other kids pass out:D!!

Also Smokey Bacon Frazzles. You'd have the aftertaste for weeks;)

Piglets - OMG they were mint.

Faves at the mo gotta be nice n spicy nik naks and pickled onion monster munch.

Sausage and tomata flavour crisps (think they were Smiths or Walkers)
Flavour 'n' shake
Space Raiders, Ringos (cheese 'n' onion for me) and Roast Beef Monster Munch already mentioned
I still like Discos

TBH I still can't get the hang of these new colours. For me:
Dark blue or red = ready salted
Light blue = salt 'n' vinegar
Green = cheese 'n' onion
...but Walkers have swapped them all around now :(

Sausage and tomata flavour crisps (think they were Smiths or Walkers)


Yeah they were really nice.

Golden Wonder will be back on the scene soon. Now their cheese and Onion are surely the best.
