I was only talking to someone the other day about Bikers and Banshee Bones (both crisps, well ‘corn snacks’ probably more correct)

Time bar - Rock hard toffee, minimal chocolate. A tooth breaking pleasure.

And there was this bag of small rocky lumps that when put on your tongue would explode and crackle in your mouth. No idea of the name, but was it fun.

Sharwoods Green Label Chutney Sauce

Not the mango chutney one. They discontinued it years ago, you cant find any image of it online anymore because sharwoods got sick of Facebook petitions being set up for it 😂

Closest thing to it now would be Reggae Reggae sauce but without the spice.
