Flavoured Potato Crisps ( also known as 'Chips' in some localities )

[Phil Perry]

Since a large number of Pubs closed due to the Smoking ban,. . the flavoured Crisps industry took a serious hit, as these were part and parcel of 'Having a couple of Pints'. . .Even as a small child I recall being left in a pub car park with my siblings, ( 1950s )and being given some Cheese and Onion crisps and a bottle of Vimto to keep us quiet whilst the folks had a tipple. . .but lately, the big shops are pushing new flavours with gusto. . . .

 

Sainsbury's UK supermarkets are now selling crisps which are a Gressingham Duck with Hoisin and Plum sauce flavour. Who knew ? . . . .How did we survive without all these amazing flavours to tittilate our tastebuds ?

 

We fought world wars.. . . . Saw men walking on the moon.. . . We managed. . . . .

 

I've even tried Hedgehog flavour,. . .but the SJWs had these withdrawn from sale following a whinge campaign as they have no discernible sense of humour. . .

 

Here endeth the ramble. . .

Oh Yeah,. . .. used to love them. . .I was most put out one day when there was no salt in the packet though. . . . . .

Gave them up years ago .Transfats, salt and starch. .Pretty addictive. Makes you drink more beer. All good? Nev

I've even tried Hedgehog flavour,. . .

A couple of decades ago I worked with this ...er... lady (filthy-minded old biddy, actually). One day she was earwigging on a conversation that a couple of the girls were having, involving their boudoir practices with their boyfriends.

 

Next thing we hear her ask "You gave him a what? A Hedgehog? What the hell is a 'Hedgehog'?"

 

We reminded her of that for several years.

Hedgehogs are rather scarce in my boudoir. Am I doing something wrong?

 

 

[Marty_d]

I believe marriage is a sure-fire cure for hedgehogs.

 

 

[nomadpete]

Oh dear.

 

I guess the little metal chastity belt on my left hand had something to do with it?

D'err. I had to look that up. I'm used to long flowing tresses.

You're overthinking it OME... the "lady" I worked with simply misheard "head job"...

 

 

[nomadpete]

Yeah, but the Urban Dictionary lists a lot of other interesting possibilities!

 

That would never have occurred to me!
