Re: Crisps

What a fab site this is! I found it while googling the Weekend chocolates to explain to my daughter who Millie Mackintosh is. Thank you all for some great memories. I was at primary school in the 70s and high school in the 80s so I remember many of these. My favourites were 'a canny bag of' Tudor, gammon flavour...I have tried to find a photo but can't find one of the bags I remember, white with maroon stripes. Or maybe I'm imagining that. Cannot wait to explore more of this forum

Re: Crisps

These bring back memories. I loved crisps far more than chocolate as a kid and there was loads of different varieties of crisps and corn snacks.

Burtons XL crisps
Jakes Pub crisps
Horrorbags by Smiths http://retrofinds.blogspot.co.uk/201...ngs-bones.html - Fangs, Bones, Claws & Ribs
Ringos

Burtons made lots of great crisps, Puffs, Fish'N'Chips.

Re: Crisps

Does anyone remember bran crisps I think Smiths or Golden wonder made them?

Re: Crisps

Yeah, similar to Munchies. Hadn't heard of Walkers Tiger Nuts, but the Big D version could be the ones I'm thinking of. Thanks!

Re: Crisps

Yes and I'm sure Big D did something very similar

Re: Crisps

What? like Walkers Tiger Nuts?

Re: Crisps

If you google (Images) 'munchies coated peanuts', did they look like those?

[cymrusteve]

Re: Crisps

Desperately trying to remember (and I hope I'm not imagining these), a round crisp with a peanut inside - you'd bite the outer shell to get to the nut. I thought they were made by KP but can't find anything online or in this great thread of crisp memories.

Can anyone confirm these actually existed??

Thanks in advance!

Re: Crisps

I know. I think I did realise it was a crown, but the bumpy bits stood out more to me than the crown for some reason. It was those that I always noticed.

Re: Crisps

That's odd because they seemed to used the slogan Crown Crisps at one time.
