Re: Crisps

ShrinkyDinks rings a bell with me. I used to place a crisp packet on a hot plate to shrink mine, how did you shrink your crisp packets. I can remember getting them really tiny, no bigger then one of the old 1970's decimal £1 stamps maybe even smaller if lucky..

In the oven.

Re: Crisps

Yeah, we used to call them ShrinkyDinks after the "toys" of the same name/idea.

I seem to remember getting some in Shreddies packs?

Crisps

Pom bears are nothing like potato puffs

Well , oddly enough the ones I initially tried triggered the old memory of Potato Puffs ( same taste and after- taste ) but .... when I bought some a while later and tried them I was disappointed.

Can't explain it to be honest .

Re: Crisps

Did not melt them, but we used to shrink them and use them as key rings.

More info required !!

Re: Crisps

We went through a phase at school of melting empty crisp packets, so at home one day i placed 2 empty crisp packets under the grill and melted them, our kitchen stunk of burning plastic but my mates were impressed with the results! (Do Not Try This At Home Kids, It Is Extremely Dangerous!)

Re: Crisps

I'd hazard a guess at Burtons as they were the same style as Puffs, and none of the other crisps makers did that style

Anyone else miss the fabulously tasty treats known as Potato Puffs ??

Try Pom-Bears !!!!

Re: Crisps

Anyone remember Supa Krunchies? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTJfkkwAAeo

They were advertised a bit during Children's ITV ad breaks in 1986.

They weren't crisps as such, but they came in a packet - they looked a lot closer to Monster Munch, and I think that they were potato rings that were flavoured.

The advert had cartoon people or something, and the jingle said that they were just 10p, although they might have gone up to 12p before disappearing permanently. I am certain that most newsagents and corner shops sold them back in 1986.
