crispiracy!
I know they're probably doing it to be different, but I've always thought it was a little odd that Walkers Cheese and Onion crisps come in a blue packet and Salt and Vinegar come in green.
Everyone knows, salt and vinegar packets are blue, and cheese and onion are green? Right?

Things aint what they used to be
Or is it just me? I used to really love Walkers crisps but I am sure they are not as good as they were.

They are indeed not what they once were. I recall the salt and vinegar actually hurting... even my favourite monster munch no longer hit the spot. Don't get me started on luvely jublees...

I just
wish that after years of tasting their 'fun-sized' packs that they'd start to actually bring out a bag with the full amount in.

I recall the heady days when Walkers and Golden Wonder
had an almost equal share in the market.

With Golden Wonder the salt and vinegar and cheese and onion colours were the right way round.

What happened to golden wonder? I think that Walkers saw them off!

im eating a packet of golden wonder crisps now and the salt and vinegar is really lip smacking tangy. Yays all round.

Are you in the eighties?
Will you put the packets in the oven to shrink them when you're done?

Agreed.
This fucked with my mind for a long time.

Yes
Yes, I agree. It freaks me out too.

McCoys Crisps
They still do things the right way around. And they're much yummier than those Walkers abominations.

Overheard a few young 'uns in the pub the other day
One of them was saying about how weird some crisps he had seen were. When asked to elaborate, he said that salt & vinegar were blue and cheese and onion were green. It was then agreed that yes, this was highly unusual. I thought nothing of it at the time, putting it down to them not knowing any better because of their age, but thinking about it now, every other brand of crisps colours it's crisps contrary to Walkers, and surely they've seen a bag of McCoys before.

The colours of crisp packets are fucked anyway, salt isn't red, neither salt or vinegar are blue, and onions are only a little bit green. They should be white, brown and yellow respectively. All the other flavours are (mostly) coloured correctly so the main ones should be too.
