Are you guys googling for pictures of empty crisp packets or are we witnessing some truly weird collections being aired?
@ Coyote - it's the weird collections...
... probably courtesy of this gent:
Isn't that one with the blue fella on it (far left) a Monster Munch?

All aboard the chutney starship.
Erm.
Oh, fangs and bones...Binners wins,close the thread.

I'm a huge fan of crisps that have no idea what a potato actually is

wheat crunchies are not crisps
[un-dons ocrispianado hat]
sparkola- you're a bloody legend!
I've procured a big pack of Oddities. They didn't have the salt n vinegar, so I got cheese and onion, and they're a taste sensation. Result!!!
*applauds brakes for introduction of the word 'ocrispianado'*
😀
i used to love goiong into the local Kwik Save for those big bags of Wheelz crisps....cheese and onion, salt and vinegar and mexican spice...they were brill... 😆
Anyone else used to shrink the empty bags down in the oven ( like shrinky dinks)?
Binners - are you sure you've tried all snacks?
Absolutely not Dezzy. It's an ambition rather than a statement. I've never even seen those before. I'm liking the look of Pork Crunches though. Where would I procure such delights? This is the most educational thread ever.
All suggestions for any other savoury snacks I've never tried, lets 'ave 'em! 😀

Salt & vinegar Thingys and Tangy Toms FTW
Must resist...
The hardcore crisp addicts among us are still pining for the Really Ruthless Crisps...
Bring them back!
Frazzles never went away so not really retro you can buy them in pretty much any supermarket.
I love Frazzles 🙂 They sell the small bags in our local esso station. The king of crisps is Kettle Chips Buffalo Bleu but I haven't been able to find them over here yet, only got em in Canada. Pretty sure the main ingredient is crack, bit moreish.
Personal favourite and ones I wish I could still get more readily were the brannigans beef and mustard flavour.
BEAUTIFUL crisps, that made my eyes water.
Try your local boot sale... There's usually some selling some close to BBE date crisps there.
Iced Gems represent something truly unique. A sugary confection that neither of my kids will eat
Iced gems make my teeth itch.
They have no place in this discussion.
Now your talking!!! Roast Beef - the superior Monster Munch flavour too. Good work!
I'm going to need a cuppa.
The new Monster Munch is but a pale imitation of the proper 70's original.
Now they made them big again they're pretty much how I recall them.
They are indeed back to their 1970's heyday best now that they're the proper size again.
So good ,you taste them twice 🙂
What about those ‘Wigwams’. Triangular shapes salted biscuit crisps things, they were great. Oh and those Fish n Chips, saltsville or what, but they were great. M&S do something similar to the Wigwams but they are cheese flavour I think, not the same.
Roast beef monster munch are good for a change but I still reckon flamin hot is the best flavour.
I remember MM as having much more of an MSG coating way back then.

Yeah that was a laugh, not as easy now as most crisp packets are foil backed for freshness so that bit doesn't shrink and it all goes wrong. Used to use them as keyring fobs
If they've removed the MSG then they're essentially a health food

Fear not, they are still loaded with magical MSG 😀
