Re: Crisps

When I was young the local swimming pool always had Seabrooks crisps in the vending machines.

For years I didn't seem them anywhere else, then my Mum started buying them in multipacks for a few years.

Seabrooks crisps......been around since 1945 apparently but I only noticed them in Sainsburys last week because they were on offer (6 packs for a quid)...............they were absoluteley 'yumtastic!' .

Deffo on my shopping list from now on.

Re: Crisps

Does anyone remember crisps which were released for The Dandy comic - Cow Pie flavour??? Must've been late-80's. I think the Beano probably had their own variation but I loved the Cow Pie crisps! Can't find a pic of them online!!!

Re: Crisps

I was born in the mid-1950's and remember there only being one type of crisp - Smiths ready salted in a greaseproof paper bag with the little blue paper twist of salt inside. They tasted sublime! When I was about 8 (early 1960's) Smith's brought out Salt n Vinegar Cheese n Onion and Smoky Bacon and the bags were plastic. I think Bovril and Chicken came next - and then Golden Wonder started producing crisps and us kids swapped from Smiths because Golden Wonder were more trendy! When I went outdoor swimming with the school (freezing!) my mum would pack me a little thermos of oxo in hot water, a spam sandwich (or dairylea if she was feeling flush!) and a bag of Golden Wonder bacon crisps! All the flavours were very distinct and we all had our favourites - nowadays all the flavours taste the same to me!

Re: Crisps

did you send it these packets for a full set of gold silver and bronze.


this was before my time but i love the sound of it.
the closest most of us will get to actually having the real things.

sadly the munich games are remembered for the wrong reasons.

Yes, I managed to get the full set, me and my mates used to organise our own mini olympics to compete for the medals. Happy days.

Anyone remember Tudor crisps 1972 Munch Olympic medals ? You had to send in somthing like five empty packets for a bronze medal, ten for silver and maybe fifteen or twenty for gold.
