My all time favourite crisps are: Beef Space Raiders! You see them in newsagents and petrol stations for only 10p a packet!! I love them so so much, but there's only one shop round me that I know sell them!
NOT BEEF, BUT THIS IS THE PACKET!! MMMM!!

You would be surprised when most people visit Northern Ireland who used to live there usualy go hgome with at least 1 bag of Tayto chrisps.
I have seen them in Macro in multipacks and in home bargins.
Edit: If you ever have the misfortune to be going past Middlesbrough let me know and I will give you one. ;p

The "ordinary" ones are full of fat and the "lite" ones are full of sugar.
Diabetics with high cholesterol are totally stuffed.
As I once said to Moses, "Keep taking the tablets". In this case, Metformin and Simvastatin!

Never seen that spicy flavour before! Looks nice.Jamez wrote:My all time favourite crisps are: Beef Space Raiders! You see them in newsagents and petrol stations for only 10p a packet!! I love them so so much, but there's only one shop round me that I know sell them!
If you thought 10p was cheap, the Pickled Onion Space Raiders are £1.19 for a 15-pack in Morrisons, and they're currently on 2 for 1, which makes them just under 4p a pack! They're pumped up with Monosodium Glutamate though - not good.
hehe At least it was a friendly offer, I don't see anyone else going out of their way to help fellow man (or in this case woman) experience the blissfullness that its the Tayto crisp!

That Aussie Smiths site has Salt and Vinegar in a PINK packet and Roast Chicken in a GREEN packet!
I remember when Walkers swapped the Salt & Vinegar and Cheese & Onion colours. Took some getting used to. I think some supermarket own brands still have them the other way round as did the late Golden Wonder.
As for my favourite crisps... Try Burts! I recommend the Chilli Lemon flavour!

As for Salt 'n' Shake... anyone remember Flavour 'n' Shake? I'm sure I didn't imagine them, but they didn't last long. Mid 80's maybe... Multipack of plain non salted, and a series of flavour bags!
