Flavoured Crisps?

[velofelo]

It is claimed that the first flavoured crisps in Great Britain were (I think)Golden Wonder cheese & onion in 1962, yet I went to London Zoo some time before 1955 with my pal & his mum and we distinctly remember having crisps that were OXO (or just perhaps Bovril) flavour. I can find no record of these anywhere, help with confirmation anyone?

Re: Flavoured Crisps

We have a great Crisps thread with all above mentioned flavours either talked about and/or pictures of the packets. These links will take you to the page with the OXO ones but the whole thread is worth a read

And Bovril Crisps

Kwik Save (UK discount shop) had some nice beefy crisps. But they went out of business after Aldi, Etc, came to the United Kingdom. I miss that shop. Their products were good for your money.

We used to have Presto stores in the 80's and they had a basic range - in white packaging - their basic crisps were nice

HI Roly. Yes OXO CRISPS were for sale in 1955, we had them in The North of England and they were made by a firm called TUDOR, they were closely followed by cheese and onion then saLT AND VINEGAR. REGARDS...LEPPY
