Love these. For some reason they often remind me of walking home from the school disco...

Some of the girls at our school were a bit unhygienic as well.

Has anyone mentioned the unspeakable obscenity that is Pringles yet?

Scampi Fries ...ewe...
They've got a lingering stink that once on your hands you just seem unable to get off again..
And if you eat 6 packets in a row they make you vom.

TBH, someone eating them in the same room is enough to make me vom.

discos are great too and they follow the STW-approved methodology of blue for salt and vinegar:

lets not confuse crackling with pork scratchings though! crackling is awesome where pork scratchings are wrong. i guess because crackling is hot/warm its acceptable.

Wow, yes, vaguely. I remember the packet certainly.

Kid at our school had a peanut allergy. We used to make him play Russian Roulette with a bag of Revels

Cougar - that deserves a Ho Ho. That's funny. Was there an Epi-Pen available?

If you are about 42 you will remember the Horror Bags range.

Has anyone had a Cheese Moment? Not strictly a crisp, I'll admit.

Unsurprisingly, it was a joke, and didn't really happen.

I remember Horror Bags! Tuckshop-Tastic!

Remember these tasty MoFos?

Didn't taste of fish or contain any potato yet they called them Fish n Chips. Surreal.

I didn't think it was true Coug's - but it is a funny joke.

It really is difficult to express oneself on a forum isn't it?

Yeah. It's not the first time I've wondered if someone's being serious in (somewhat foolishly) taking me seriously. They say a large percentage of communication is non-verbal; so on the Internet where you lose all the subtle nuances it's really easy to be taken the wrong way.

Tuckshop-Tastic!

That reminds me of our tuckshop staple, Potato Puffs. 10p got you a bag containing mostly air; the savvy kids crushed up the bag before offering it around, so that it was impossible for someone to take more than a pinch of crisps.

Lot of tosh being talked on this thread.... these are the one & only king.
Walkers in Smoky bacon flavour, though Walkers C&O, RS or S&V are acceptable if the king is not available.

[img] ?identifier=26abbf88f76a98c82f15b1195e4c3cbd[/img]

All other crisp manufacturers are imposters.
Doritos, kettle chips, expanded corn puff's are not crisps, all IMHO of course.

Agreed that Walkers take some beating but Smokey Bacon, that's down with their Roast Chicken as one to avoid.

Now Prawn Cocktail and Worcester Sauce that's a different matter.

The whole North / South thing can be summed up with these.

North.

No nonsense. Rough and ready. Nothing to hide.

South.

Expensive. Poncy. Errr... foil wrapped.

If you MUST do smokey bacon. And it's always a pretty desperate measure, then it has to be the Wheat Crunchie!

I try to avoid them. I do wonder where they manage to get that much smegma from.

Oh, now. Wheat Crunchies. There's a prince amongst snacking, right there.

You've picked the worst flavour, mind.

Wheat Crunchies are ace. Worcester sauce flavour FTW.

Are these the most oddly named?

anotherdeadhero - My thoughts exactly. I got through half a packet of Cheese Moments once, it is something I shall never forget. For all the wrong reasons.

I love cheese and onion seabrooks fwiw, but not familiar with their wierder flavours. Are they really made with lard? ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Bobby's onion rings are dirty but soooooo moreish.

Not too happy with food miles on crisps (it is surely no accident that KP and Walkers are located almost right in the centre of Engerland) cos you need a chuffin great lorry to move really not that much of them about. The walkers man also visits my local shop about 4 times a week for a shop that only ever has max 5 varieties of walkers products available, I dread to think how much driving he does for a few dozen boxes a day.

These are made just a few miles away from us though.

And we have a winner. When did they get rid of David Bowie on the Space Raiders packet?

They aren't crisps, but they are a saturated fat based snack and, therefore, I feel they warrant inclusion.

haha. love the shrimp tossers. I think it's the fact that "shrimp" is in teeny writing and "tossers" in big bold text. I am a child though.

Anyone for, hmm what are these, haven't got my specs on.. "TOSSERS!"?

darling! have you been to that uncouth budget supermarket again!

I felt the need to resurrect this thread after eating a packet of the Seabrook crisps described by the OP.

Sweet Jesus!!! I feel violated!! They're absolutely repugnant!!! And I can't get rid of the vile aftertaste!

I suspect I now know how the inside of a fluffers mouth feels after a particularly punishing schedule at the office, all thir colleagues having called in sick due to unpleasant, but accurate rumours about the dubious hygiene of the male performers involved in the enormous group finale

BLEEEEEUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRGH!!!! What on earth have you done Seabrook?!!

Have you tried them? I never thought the day would ever come when I would chuck [i]any[/i] crisps in the bin. They really are [i]that[/i] bad!
