now as the regulars here will know these crisps are in the products forum, as they are cheap and very good.
Last night around 10pm or so the mrs brought pack a few packets of these crisps, filled with delight I opened my packet, only to discover something unusual.
Now I have had many a pack of spicy bikers in my time and I have never found anything quite like this.
I can only call it 'supercrisp', heres a few pics showign the beast.
thats the entire contents of the pack
as you can see it was quite large.
For around 30 minutes I restrained myself from consuming super crisp but as always like Eve in the garden of Eden I succumbed to my desire to eat the crisp. I have to say disapointment was my reward, I had hoped for a flavour filled experience of pure joy, sadly it was tasteless.
I cried myself to sleep. |

I sent a letter to the makers of Shreddies back in the days when they had their "keeps hunger locked up till lunch" slogan complaining that this was false advertising because even after a very large bowl of shreddies in the morning, hunger is very much on the loose by as early as 1045am.
Didnt get a reply. |

Shame you where such a greedy sod Chris and just had to eat that magnificent specimen of a Fried Tatti!!
You could have kept it in your glovebox incase one of your wheelnuts broke!! That crisp would have made a fine replacement!
What a waste, im going to go and cry now.
CHRIS YOU TATTI KILLER!!! |
