I got one of these stuck up my nose as a kid.

Spira...all day.

Also I wasn't allowed anything with Blue colouring or bubblegum flavour as a child otherwise I'd start licking to he carpet.

E numbers and all that.

It's running joke in our family to this day...Don't give our Francis anything Blue otherwise he'll lick the floor.

Vice Versa

In hindsight maybe just glorified smarties but the thought of bite a dark shell with white chocolate and a white shell with milk chocolate blew my childhood mind

Anyone remember the pickled meanies crisp, used to be able to get a 5p packet

It was Cresta and originally it was a Cream based drink marketed by Schweppes It was great but the problem was, the cream curdled on supermarket shelves and the product was unsellable / undrinkable. Later became just a standard fizzy drink. (uninteresting fact, I used to work for schweppes in those days when they were at 66 Long Lane)

Cheers

Meanies still exist, kind of. You see them every blue moon in Iceland/Food Warehouse. Was about a year since I last saw them though.

They are still decent decent too.

Cheese and onion crisps that tasted as if theyd even been near cheese or onions - unlike the tasteless pap that gets served up today.

Clubs when they were still Jacobs or Breakaways before Nestlé ruined them.

Forgot about them

Surely AI? A Spira didn't look like Trivial Pursuit tokens inside. More like a flake with a solid covering coating.

You’re thinking of the still-available Twirl.

Sky DIvers crisps were easily one of the salty and vinegariest of the lot!

Used to love them, also used to get 5p crisps called Thingamebobs and Thingamejigs , think they were tomato sauce flavour and cheesey flavour
