Re: Favourite crisps
 

Oh yes, I remember Rishy Crisps ... I also remember the rumour that they were made out of spuds that even the hogs wouldn't eat:eek::D And the blue bags of salt in some chips ... oops, crisps; sorry I had a colonial moment;) Now, the salt would have a warning on it from the Surgeon General ... or whoever it is that puts the politically correct bs on food over there. Anyone who doesn't know that certain foods are bad for them deserves to be booted out of the gene pool, or drowned in it. Wasn't there a brand called Smith's Crisps ... try saying that with your dentures out:dancedog:?

And my fav. Pringles:alright:

Re: Favourite crisps
 

Lol!..Just what you recall as a kid though aint it!..I used to Love Rishy crisps..still the best i've ever tasted..but maybe that's my childhood memories!..Yep i recall Tems & Smith's too with the little blue bag!..The funny thing is, even the colour of the bags have changed!..Cheese n Onion used to be Green bags..now they are Blue!..God i'm so sad if i remember that !! Lol!...In fact if i remember correctly..the first flavoured crisps were not Cheese n Onion..but just plain Cheese!!!

Re: Favourite crisps
 

I'm as sad as you then Taggy, still get confused with green/blue if I buy a mixed pack... and yes they were just plain cheese at first.

Yep remember Rishy, Tems, Smiths - and was there one called Benson's?

Cashy I seem to remember getting Tems at the offy at the top of Milnshaw Lane... used to be my Saturday night treat. My mum would go out to play bridge and dad and I would watch TV, often black and white movies, while he scoffed an enormous bag of salted peanuts. If I was lucky we might also share a Fry's chocolate cream 5 fruit flavours bar.

Eric I'd rather eat the box, to me they have the taste and texture of cardboard anyway.

Re: Favourite crisps
 

The one thing i DO know, is that crisps do not taste as good these days as they did when i was younger.......they taste so FALSE now!

Walkers ready salted crisp sandwich made with white sliced bread - very bad for you but very nice - bit of a secret vice for me! My daughter in law likes pickled onion monster munch sandwiches!

Hoola hoops -love sucking my fingers after eating one off each :D :eek: :D

Re: Favourite crisps
 

Dianne, Hula Hoops aren't crisps, they're a potato-based snack!!....but they would be in my top 5.

Re: Favourite crisps
 

Would they pass for ready salted do you think?:)

By the way -can't get'em in Italy....if anyone wants to send some:D

Re: Favourite crisps
 

I think you'll find that pringles arn't crisps either. If i'm right they are made from the potato starch thats left after washing all the spuds they make proper crisps from. :)
