Of course, I remember those were also the halcyon days when cola bottle sweets were only 1/2p each, wham bars were 10p and made your tongue purple (not to mention rot your teeth), and curly-wurly's seemed to be really big, but admitting all that would be showing my age... Rita - smith's is/was an english company that got taken over by walkers, but i remember that a couple of bags of the full monty and warm cans of VB basically sustained me while I was backpacking around Australia...! margaret – i’m almost offended, though perhaps I should be delighted, that you should think me too young to remember the blue salt packets in smiths crisps – salt n’shake were a great favorite of mine back in the day.

I used to live within walking distance of the Walker's Crisp Factory at Thurmaston, Leicestershire. Also, there was factory No.2, not so far away. My husband went on a factory visit and ............to this day, isn't very fond of crisps!!! Apparently, Walker's Crisps have now 'upped their game'. I think that you are too young to remember the blue bag of salt, hiding within the bag of Smith's Crisps............? Oh by the way, my favourite used to be cheese and onion. Ummm!!

We tried a new brand of salt and vinegar crisps that are extra vinegary. Can't remember the name now, but they were good.
