Small children's tears flavour
But they're hard to get hold of.

Failing that, Seabrook's prawn cocktail.

Seabrook
Prawn cocktail.

But only when they were in clear plastic bags and not the rubbish foil ones, foil has ruined them.

Ooooooh, this gives me jealouses.
I haven't had them in years!

Red Spicy Doritos
mmm yeahhhh...

or Flamin' Hot Wotsits.
( scoshi pretending to diet since, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:34, Reply)

Flamin' hot wotsits are the closest thing I'm every going to experiance in my life time, to doing Smack while getting a blowie off [insert celebraty of your dreams].
My local shop doesn't get them in that often, but I can never buy just one packet of them.

They're soooooo amazing. Seriously.

The sadly discontinued Prawn Cocktail Hula Hoops.

They were awesome
I miss ridged hula hoops where did they go?

*sniffs*

At least we can console ourselves with the green flavour ones.

While we're at it,
although they're not crisps, I demand the return of WHITE CHOCOLATE PRETZEL FLIPZ.
(wellgroomedwookiee is a filthy-minded hobgoblin, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:49, Reply)

White chocolate is all of the win
so I'm in

They were my dinner of choice when I was a student.
Either them or the killer one-two of a Kit-Kat chunky, followed by a chunky Milkybar.

Pickled Onion Monster Munch
That's a hard one to beat Becky, although the spicy ones were my faves.
(Bicycle Repairman "you're also a bit of a wanker", Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:35, Reply)

Beef and Mustard Brannigans
Although they were better in the Paperish Bags

Closely followed by Salt and Vinegar McCoys, and the technically-not-a-crisp Flaming Chilli Doritos.
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:38, Reply)

In fact
The Thai Sweet Chilli "Posh" McCoys also take some beating..
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:40, Reply)

Brannigans
them shits was FRESH, yo. Proper fiery mustard - almost WWI-ish in intensity...


EDIT: SHIT! Just agreed with 'Weeker. This simply will not do.

Does anyone remember
Indian Tandoori Seabrook crisps? I think the last time I had a packet would be at least 12 years ago.

Also, not many people remember the time Seabrook tested sweetcorn flavour crisps. They started out ok but by the time you'd finished the bag you felt quite sick.
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:38, Reply)

what happened
when you shat them out?

Kernels?

I MUS KNO
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 17:12, Reply)

I think I joined a crisps forum once.
Such is my love for them.
I preferred Monster Munch in the old days, but you can buy the old-style beef ones now. Yum.
I also loved Benson's crisps in S&V flavour. 'member them??
M&S used to do good S&V crisps. So flavoursome they made you sweat.
McCoys - packed with flavour. Especially the steak/beef.
Skips get forgotten about, but if you get a really powdery flavoury pack, they're a treat.
Let's not forget Space Raiders.

Has anybody been able to get hold of some Yasser Arafat crisps?

( Colonel Dracula Two manky hookers and a racist dwarf, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:40, Reply)

Don't know if you still get them
as I've never bought a bag of crisps in years, but when I was a kid I couldn't resist Smith's Cheese & Onion Square crisps.

Reformed starchy goodness in a geometrically pleasing shape.
( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:40, Reply)

I believe Walkers bought them over
And introduced Foil bags which ruined the flavour somewhat.
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:41, Reply)

Walkers and foil
have ruined everything
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:43, Reply)

I agree

( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:45, Reply)

I really don't like the taste
of thinkgs packaged in foil. They did it to chocolate bars too. I want my Mint Aero and my Galaxy in foil and paper thanks.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:54, Reply)

Ohhhhhhhhh yes
Such is the dominance of foil I completely forgot about the old days of paper foil combos. Much nicer!
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:56, Reply)

Yeah, proper foil
not plastic foil. Grrr.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:57, Reply)

I must go and look for a packet now
just to confirm the disappointment of foil packaging.
( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:45, Reply)

Oooh good one!
I really like S&V Square crisps and also S&V French Fries.

I also loved those Puffs crisps but they've been long gone for years!! :(
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:42, Reply)

lol Puffs
An old-school tactic was to crunch them up prior to opening, and then tip the contents into your mouth.

Saved a bit of faffing around...
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:43, Reply)

Hehe
Aww I used to do that too!! :)

About 4 years ago I found some in an ice cream truck (of all places) and I brought the guy out. I have never seen them since! *sobs*
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:46, Reply)

You can still buy them in Macro
My brother goes every so often and buys me a box of them
( fuck shit up the best you never had, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:56, Reply)

Waaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!

That's the most exciting news EVER!! :)

I have been looking for them for YEARS!!

You're both very welcome
You do get sick of them after your 24th bag.

Not meeee, I miss them so much I would probably consume two boxes in a day!!

She's not joking, either.
Christ, I saw the carnage when she discovered some crisps she liked in Aldi.

and they're yummy.

I don't do drugs, I don't smoke, I do crisps and Mountain Dew, oh and candy floss! :)
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Tue 16 Jun 2009, 17:20, Reply)

Oh god I haven't had candy floss in ages
I want some now.

I can easily polish off a multibag in a few hours, but with the puffs I had to put the box away or I'd be eating them for the sake of finishing them. That would be wrong. All gone in three days.
( fuck shit up the best you never had, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 17:25, Reply)

I'm not sure about the last time I saw them
I remember the packaging quite clearly though. I even think one of the flavours was "Plain" instead of "Ready Salted"... Such were the days.
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:57, Reply)

I quite like
S&V discos. And Squares. I just need to find some triangular crisps and I'll be set
( TGB checking Off Topic is still shit at, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:42, Reply)

Chipsticks!!
Can't believe I forgot them.
And only the little pale blue and white packets. All other chipsticks are inferior, Morrison's come a close second.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:43, Reply)

You clearly never tried the bacon ones
that were in a pink bag with newspaper print on them.
( fuck shit up the best you never had, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:47, Reply)

but were they smokey bacon?
because I don't like smokey bacon flavoured things. They smell like fuzzy red hair.

( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:54, Reply)

Don't remember
any with newspaper print on though.

The ones out at the moment have the same Smiths bags as they used to.
(Ethelred is watching cheese grow, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:56, Reply)

No
Frazzles are frazzles. These were bacon chipsticks. Very different things
( fuck shit up the best you never had, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 16:56, Reply)

Ah
Never was a chipsticks man. I only ever knew the SnV or Ready salted varieties....

O, crisps, how I love thee, let me count the ways:
1) Beef and Mustard Brannigan's
2) Cheeseburger Quarterbacks
3) Sausage and Mustard Tyrell's
4) A good old fashioned Quaver
5) Walkers Cheese and Onion

Golly. No wonder I'm a fat bastard.

Pickled Onion Monster Munch... me too
I often prefer 'real' crisps when I can get them because everything is made of rice in Japan.

If you like salt and vinegar, try Tyrell's Cider Vinegar and Sea Salt. They are crispy heaven.
