Name this French crispbread from the 80s

My gran used to buy crispbread when it was first popular back in the 80s. It had a French name, beginning with a B.

I think it might have been called something toast.

Me and my sister used to love it, anyone else remember?

Hurrah, I shall give myself a round of applause, AND pat myself on the back.

I want Mignons Morceaux now though Sad

And your specialist subject is?

'dehydrated carbohydrate snacks of Britain during the Thatcher years'

For ten points, what flavour were Farmer Brown's?

I'm sorry I shall have to hurry you

Braisotte?

Most places sold that under the name Toast Francais with the paper bag being blue, white and red, but it's possible that you had some with French packaging.

The company that made them was Jaquet Brossard.

Er, as I recall salt ‘n’ vinegar and Smokey bacon flavours

The whole Jules Verne brand has gone. You did need to rush your teeth after eating a packet of mignon morceaux though Grin
