read it and nostalge.

 

Turns out my memory isn't complete - these were in regular walker's crisps, but not the crisps I remember. My searching has so far taken me to a facebook group who are also unable to find out info on these crisps (allegedly taken off the market as they made kids hyper), and some links that came out of google were from these very boards!

 

Seriously, why is it so hard to get solid intel on this?!

Ahhh, Tazos.

 

A Tazo was in every Grab Bag of Walkers and sometimes in regular packets and Doritos. I seemed to have the most luck with Doritos as a kid in finding them and all sorts of myths about SURE FIRE WAYS TO GET ONE IN YOUR PACK circulated.

 

They also put three Tazos in a Walkers variety multipack which led to lots of opened outer packaging at supermarkets and my Mother being placed under strict orders to "Check it hasn't been opened and they're in there!" before buying.

 

No idea what the crisps you're thinking of are, Jayseven. Bet I loved them when I was younger though. Any more description on 'em?

 

Anyone remember Spaghetti Sauce flavoured Monster Munch? I miss those terribly. Same with the original old Walkers MAX that came in the large yellow and red bag. Why do they take away my beloved snacks?

Didn't some of the Tazo's have Looney Tunes characters on them? Was that not the promotion?

I thought you touch typed. How'd you manage to type a whole sentence with num lock on and not notice?

Speaking of odd crisps, anyone remember the Vanilla Ice Cream flavour Quavers they brought out it about '03? I thought they were quite nice personally... :D

 

Today I had a German Bratwurst Walkers crisp sarnie because I was lazy. The end result was that it made the otherwise naff crisps taste rather good.

^ I might try that one time.

 

 

Although I wonder two things:

 

A) I haven't tried the crisps yet. Are the crisps as nice as real teriyaki chicken?

 

B) Would real teriyaki chicken be nice in a sandwich?

 

 

Answers on a banner above the M6 motorway, please.

B) Yes. Spices are always pretty nice in a sammich.

 

C) I'm nowhere near the M6, sowwie.

I can't imagine that, do you use butter/etc as well?

 

Depends really, they've got some damn weird skips flavours in multi packs now, but when you compress the sandwich, the texture is pretty awesome.

 

For the original, I'l use some good old butter, can't have it too dry.

 

For this cheese flavour they seem to have introduced, Branston Chilli/Jalapeno Relish, as I have a fascination with Cheese and Chilli. Tastes good.
