If it was the 125g bags I might have gone for it for the good of the forum. It's not that bad each considering all of this "import" stuff has a massive price hike. I'm just worried we won't like them. Found these in One Stop yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are passionate about them being an adult snack. You, or rather they, lost me here. What pretentious bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly. But they were very particular about where they are sold. I mean, they have been going over 15 years and PepsiCo tried to buy them out. I don’t see it being much difference to Walker Sensations, Burt’s or Kettle in crisp brands who target an older demographic at a more premium price point and a more premium product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SuperBacon Posted February 15, 2020 Members Share Posted February 15, 2020 What a load of fucking nonsense. They’ll be gutted to know I bought some in a pub last week and my daughters both enjoyed them. Personally, as a self appointed crisp expert, I think they’re shit.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted February 15, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2020 The reason you can hardly buy Piper's anywhere is because they're shit. They should have stuck to being stockbroker wankers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Wiseau Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 In Heron this morning I treated myself to some beef and mustard Brannigans, and some chocolate orange creams (don't tell @Ralphy) I'll be eating like a king watching Takeover!

Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted February 15, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2020 I do like a packet of Pipers when I'm in the pub, but now that I know that they would deliberately try to deny children of the joy of eating crisps I like them a lot less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love me some Beef and Mustard Brannigans. Our Poundland gets them in on rare occasions. Went in on Tuesday and bought the remaining 18 multipacks like a right fat bastard. Even though I'm only 11 stone, dripping wet, with a brick in each pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted February 15, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 15, 2020 For those of us now pining for Lamb & Mint crisps, has anyone tasted these and would you recommend them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the crisps do not have that same crunch as the Brannigans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkshire Crisps in general are pretty good (but overpriced), lots of flavour. Lamb & mint ones are quite nice, as I recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Seabrooks don't taste the same unless bought from an ice-cream van in the late '80s/early '90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
