This archival book celebrates the bygone eras of the humble crisp packet

From Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to the minimalist design of Discos packets, UK Crisp Packets 1970-2000 is an ode to the ground-level visual identities that ruled childhoods.

Sad to read this on the BBC website.

I guess those who like crisps / chips don't like the vegetable varieties, preferring the more traditional flavours.

Those who see themselves as healthier don't eat crisps / chips, even vegetable varieties.

Tyrrells plans to give vegetable crisps the chop

Parent company KP confirms the proposals may lead to the loss of a factory in Uttoxeter.

In other gripes,

- Wrong size beads in my order (my fault, must have been tired + clicked wrong thing)

- Opened the 'Poulet Tex Mex' flavour of Vico Crisps sporting the New Improved!! Banner (derogatory)

That too tastes Different and Worse 😩

It's just a *very strong* and flat roast chicken flavour now, w nothing else. Spiciness, gone.

I.. don't want to eat these again 😭

- In better news, we collected the cockerel and he is SUCH A HANDSOME BOY but shy 🐓

Arrrghh they *all* have a Nouveau! (New) banner 😭

These were my favourite crisps... Tasted great, and not too expensive.

I bought several flavours anyway to Vet Them™️, since the 'new' Chicken Teriyaki (my absolute favourite) now tastes totally different ie Of Nothing.

Verdict: BBQ tastes *similar*, but flatter. It's just Hot 🌶️🔥minus the flavour profile..

Aghhh rage RAGE..

When you open a bag of crisps, and there are noticeably FEWER of them (third full!! )

Then you try one, and they TASTE DIFFERENT (derogatory)

RIP Vico Street Food.. you were the last remaining crisps that I liked and weren't expensive.

*Stares mournfully at the bag*

(There's a bright yellow NEW!! banner on the bag.. perhaps I can find a shop that still has the 'old' ones, and stock up 😭)

I love potato chips and other crispy snacks as much as the next person, but I am slightly hesitant to try these… um… innovative creations:

• Century Egg Flavored Doritos
• Durian Flavored Lay's
• Cilantro and Meat Ball Soup Flavored Pea Crackers
• Oyster Pancake Flavored Potato Chips

@junklight My husband @andy puts anything vaguely nice and I shouldn't eat up really really high so I can't get it. #biscuits #crisps #anythingfun
I think, to cheer myself up and at the earliest opportunity I will stuff my face with a crisp sandwich. #ComfortFood #Crisps #CrispSandwich
