Crisp/Snack Flavours you wish to brought back

Had a conversation over the weekend about Twiglets and how the Worcester Sauce flavour was the best.
Then today while eating boring old Salt and Vinegar Kettle Chips, I remembered that we used to love the Salsa and Mesquite flavour and bought them all the time, until they were discontinued!
What other crisps/snacks do you wish they brought back?

I’ve remembered another. Golden wonder crunchy fries, in Smokey bacon flavour.

Spicy Tomato Wheat Crunchies. I used to get these from the vending machine at work when working late, and then they disappeared 😢

Walker's Sensations Mexican Fiery Chipotle- the best crisps ever. I'm still in mourning

@Underthesea65 Thank you! - I was thinking about them the other day but couldn't remember what they were called!

Karwomannghia · 08/11/2023 18:42

Worcester sauce French fries and crunchy fries

Karwomannghia · 08/11/2023 18:42

Mine are Walkers - BBQ. I still order them online via an American sweet shop because I refuse to let them go

Do they taste the same as UK walkers BBQ did?

Why did walkers get rid of bbq? They replaced them with bbq rib - have they been ditched too?

Definitely Bovril flavour.

And the old Walkers Cheese and Onion. The change after Lays bought them is just like any other cheese and onion. Too oniony and not cheesy enough

Spice girls walkers sour cream and chive, and some mini garlic bread crisps you could get in the 90s. No idea what brand they were but they were the perfect combination of crunch, garlic, salt and toasted brownness.

Pickled onion crisps. Light green packet. No idea who made them.

Walkers did those

WhamBamThankU · 08/11/2023 18:52

Brannigan's roast ham and mustard was it? Or roast beef?

UsedtogodownNevins · 08/11/2023 18:52

@Karwomannghia Worcester sauce french fries are still very available?!

They did a ham one and a beef one, so lovely

When I was pregnant with ds 20 years ago there was fish and chips crisps. They were the French fry crisps with little fish, they were hollow. I was addicted to them throughout my pregnancy. Never seen them since
also just asked my DH today if he remembered ‘bitsa pizza’. Pizza slice shaped. Was the late 70s or early 90s I think

CesareBorgia · 08/11/2023 18:55

Cheese NikNaks.

IfeellikeaJoan · 08/11/2023 18:55

Tangy twiglets and cheese snaps. I get so sad thinking about them 😭

Auntiehero · 08/11/2023 18:56

These! They also did a mustard flavour, I missed them.

Lamb & mint walkers, they bought some out for the Jubilee last year but they've gone again.

Tayto beef Exy Ozy's, loved them in the 90s, they brought them back this year and I ordered two boxes and now they have gone again 😭.

Scampi niknaks and hint of lime doritos

WhamBamThankU · 08/11/2023 18:58

@waltzingparrot Walkers pickled onion are still available in my local Asda

Ladypugs60 · 08/11/2023 18:59

@ essexgirl, The Co Op ready salted chipsticks are really nice according to my DH and he is a connoisseur on all ready salted snacks.
Greatly missed by him are the M&S ready salted
chipsticks which were bigger and had like a crunchy coating on them.

PinkyDinkyDoodle · 08/11/2023 18:59

Ham and mustard
Beef and mustard
Worcester sauce
Beef and onion
Proper twiglets
Tomato ketchup

IfeellikeaJoan · 08/11/2023 18:59

Yeah, I remember bitsa pizza, and the fish & chips. Weren’t there also chicken & chips?

also yes to beef and mustard Branigans, and beef and mustard big Os, like big hula hoops.
