Discontinued crisp brands/flavours
There’s been a trend in recent years of decent niche crisps getting discontinued
Any classics I’m missing? I fear for Walkers Marmite, Smiths Scampi Fries and the entire Golden Wonder Range.
Walkers
Worcestershire sauce quietly retired in 2021
Beef and Onion (less of a loss but surely better than smoky bacon)
Brannigans
Entire range binned in 2020, Roast beef and mustard was elite, special mention smoked ham and pickle.
Smiths
Cheese Moments, pub classic, removed in 2020

If this was people’s favourite chocolate there would be more of a pushback

Agreed. Was brought back by Walkers with the Smith's logo but vanished a few years back.

Re: Discontinued crisp brands/flavours
Marks and Spencer Truffle flavoured crisps were very nice. I only had them when we went to sister in laws, so for all I know you can still get them, but I didn't see any when I went in M&S the other day.

They still do the the truffle and olive oil large bags thankfully at the larger M&S, I buy them when I can as they’re damn good

I come from a scummy underclass background and I like posh crisps
My wife comes from a middle class background and likes hula hoops and wotsits
Explain that, boffins

Is it one of Jarvis' early attempts at lyrics for Common People?

Red Leicester Cheddars are very nice.
But apart from the blue salt bag, nothing beats Cheese & Onion IMO, not even pringles Sour Cream & Onion.
