Fish and chips crisps

[MadMullah]

Who remembers these?

Can you still get them in some retro retail store (obviously not out of date)

[kelk]

I remember them - they were almost like mini-savoury biscuits akin in texture to McVities CHeddars shaped liked their name sakes.

Not seen them for years tho.

[prand]

They were probably made illegal under an EU ruling due to toxic (but delicious) levels of salt & vinegar. I miss them.

Burton's Fish and Chips.

Not sure of they are still around

[MadMullah]

wiki has revealed all again

they closed the savoury snacks section down and have no intention of bringing them back.

I used to love them.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burton's_Foods

"They produced crisps & snacks, including the popular Potato Puffs & Fish & Chips savoury crisps (created by a Mr Hamer and associates). These have a cult following due to being popular with schoolkids in the 80's, but the closure of their crisp & savoury snacks factories in the early 90's brought an end to the manufacturing. This was apparently due to falling sales. Despite a demand to bring the retro snacks back, Burtons have no intention of producing them again, they now concentrate on their biscuits range".
