Green, it’s what I grew up with when walkers were pretty much the only crisp game in town.

It angers me to the point of spontaneous combustion to see cheese and onion pretenders in a green packet. The Bastards! Making me think I’m picking up S&V when im inadvertently picking up C&O.

Cunts!

I always remember them to be green.

I prefer the C&O and must confess to buying a blue packet which turn out to be S&V

Blue, as they were originally. You use salt and vinegar for fish and chips, fish come from the sea, the sea is described as being blue.

Cheese and onion, both sources come from land, land is green, so the packets should be green.

I have literally no clue why their colours needed to be changed

Blue. Defo blue

Salt and vinegar were made to remind people of fish and chips. Blue seems a nautical choice. Chipsticks come in blue packets.

Silly walkers messing up the arrangement.

When I was a kid in the 80s & golden wonder dominated the crisp market before Pepsi bought out walkers:

Pale green was spring onion

Mid green was cheese & onion

Light blue was salt & vinegar

Dark blue was ready salted.

The yanks fucked it all up by changing the colours & introducing red for ready salted & swapping the other two over.

Neither in a footballing sense, but I'm used to Walkers colours now for crisps. Golden Wonder are rubbish now, apart from the occasional good packet of spring onion, so they've lost their right to dictate the colour scheme

I go a long way back , at that time it was Smiths crisps or Walkers...end of !

Also. It was possible to open a packet without the need of a sharp knife or the grip of Eddie the beast Hall.

Perhaps it depends where you live. I was a kid in the 70s and for as long as I can remember, Walkers were the dominant crisp brand by a mile, no one else came close.

Salt and vinegar have traditionally been blue. This was before Walkers even had a foil package.

The Salt and Vinegar crisps in a blue packet which I buy say that they are specially manufactured for the chain I buy them from.

Wouldn't it be amusing if they turned out to be manufactured by whoever manufactures Walkers!
