The number of times I've heard pensioners veterans on public parks shouting "Pegs, pegs please". Hope this clears it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter FrancisFogarty Posted October 3, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted October 3, 2021 In fact, I've pegged and been pegged on Farnworth park several times. Not always to my satisfaction I must say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Walkers, that’s a landed cost of about 1pence. Add in 2-3pence for flavourings and packaging, 1-2pence for transport, 1pence towards advertising and Linekers fees, and that it. And I’m being generous. Retailers selling at a pound are making a minimum of 75pence. For that kind of profit, they should expect several smacks in the face and be willing to get several more. And get their millionaire advertising pundit to accept his share of the smacks too. On a more general crisp topic, someone used to do 'hedgehog' flavour crisp I think. And M&S did or do apple flavour and beetroot flavour. By adding the word flavour they don't actually have to include anything but additives.

MancWanderer Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Crisps are one of two things that have massively changed for me during COVID Firstly, could never drink tea first thing. Had to be coffee. Total reversal now. Can’t have coffee unless I’ve had a tea when I wake up Secondly, salt and vinegar were pretty much all I ever bought in the UK, be they crisps, a corn starch based snack or a piece of carpet. Middle of last year it suddenly changed and had to be cheese and onion. Now it’s Aldi multipack plain crisps. Nowt else other than Tayto’s cheese and onion.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 3, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted October 3, 2021 Chicken crisps are rank. Irrespective of changed covid taste or not, they're not worthy of any praise at all. Smoky bacon or beef are both fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only ever seen them in the Asda opposite the Etihad though Mate of mine went living in Ireland for a few years, he used to bring Taytos, Barry's tea and Silvermints for us whenever he came back home. He now lives in France and calls the favour back in whenever any of us go over there by requesting as much Vimto as you can carry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 5, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted October 5, 2021 Tayto's just tried. Packed with cheese and onion flavour (including msg). A thumbs up for sure (and contain 25g which I think may be a touch more than some). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
