Re: Piglets

There are loads of mentions of Piglets on the web but no pics and no mention of who made them either

Re: Piglets

Just found one suggestion of "KP or Burtons", but no evidence yet

Re: Piglets

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

Re: Piglets

yeah they were very much like Burtons style, I assumed for a while "piglets" were the pig shaped farmer browns, and the other animals had different names
It was only when you found that advert I realised they were two separate products, but I also knew all the words to the Farmer brown adverts, so somewhere over time the two have merged in my mind.

Re: Piglets

Well KP got back to me this morning - apparantly there is a couple of people who work there who can remember 'piglets' but they can't find anything in the archieve - and send their apologies. :cry:

'Fraid we'll have to keep looking - sorry

Re: Piglets

I could have sworn Piglets were made by Burtons, not KP

Re: Piglets

Seems this is an age old argument KP or Burtons??

I have to say I agree with Daz though that Piglets seem more Burtons style in line with their "puffs". I have searched the net endlessly on many occasions for conformation one way or another as yet there does not seem to be any
But I live in hope that one day that packet will turn up and we here at DYR will find it

Re: Piglets

Burton definately made piglets, not KP

[Heather74]

Re: Piglets

Excellent,As we thought, how did you find that out?

[sixtyten]

Re: Piglets

I just know these things

[Heather74]

Re: Piglets

Cool, thought you had a packet up your sleeve then

[sixtyten]

Re: Piglets

One day

[Heather74]

Re: Piglets

Aye
