    Brannigans no more is an absolute tragedy. Roast Beef and Mustard has to be the greatest crisp in the history of the Universe, what on Earth were KP thinking about when they stopped making them.

    Burtons Potato Puffs, little crispy golden pillows of happiness

    Who remembers Skydivers? The salt and vinegar flavour was so strong, it felt as if the lining of your mouth was eroding. Happy times 😊

    Kids these days marvel at the plethora of technology at their disposal. As a kid, I’d be super excited at seeing a little blue packet of salt in a bag of crisps. 😂 Another nostalgic upload Sir and I love them. 👍

    I sent off for the horror bags mask in 75,i waited for weeks and age 59 I still remember the disappointment I felt at a piece of printed paper and the ripping of it when I tried to put it on! and the tears in my mums eyes she tried to hide!
  • I’m so old I remember when bags of crisps contained crisps and not fresh air.
  • Can we all just take a minute to pay our respects to Lilt. RIP.

    I miss Brannigan’s Beef and Mustard, Smiths Ready Salted Chipsticks and the original Burton’s Potato Puffs, the most 😢
  • Plain ready salted Potato Puffs were my favourite ,back in the 1960s... 3d a pack from the school tuck shop. I had a hankering for some the other day, shame they're not made any more.
  • I was working in a house a few months back, and went under the floorboards, and found a empty bag of piglets . It brought back memories of buying them at the corner shop in the early 80s .

    I remember smiths sausage and tomato, very limited edition and I still miss them
  • I remember Tudor crisps with great fondness. And I remember the “wear em, scare em” bags whereby you could collect scary badges. In 1973 I had the choice of spending my 2 pence on the bus fare to get home for lunch ,or 2 pence on a packet of tudor crisps and simply run home. Happy memories !
  • My Uncle and his father started and owned XL Crisps based in Conisborough, Yorkshire. My father designed and built the automated factory for him. I used to love XL Crisps still warm from the conveyers .... memories of childhood.

    I'd go back in a heartbeat if I could. Thanks Stu. 😊
  • I remember crisps being a huge once a week treat for us as kids in the 70's, never recall multipacks being around then? Loved them bones and Monster Munch Beef when first out were the best. Also loved, fish and chips which have been revived and Wheelz, which were only sold in Kwik Save. Never heard of Walkers till at least the late 80's? Must of been a regional thing.

    In the 1970s I remember a bacon flavoured snack called Rancheros ... I think they are pictures of cowboys on front of the the packet this would of been around 1976-77... does anybody else remember theses cheers jay
  • Good grief! Until about two minutes ago I had totally forgotten about Horror Bags! We used to love them and collect the bags! Probably haven't seen any for almost 50 years. Incredible! Now I want some!
  • Horror Bags were my favourite, but i also loved KP`s Sky Divers, Jaws, and the sizzling bacon flavour in the early Monster Munch range.
