Does anyone remember these crisps from the 70s/80s? I used to live in Gibraltar and they had them there and they were the best! I never saw them in the UK though. They dissapeared in the mid 90s never to be seen again. What happened? I loved some of their flavours like spring onion and prawn cocktail. Im sorry but Walkers just aint the same.
Many of Walkers product line were formerly branded under the Smiths Crisps name. This comes from the time when Walkers, Smiths and Tudor were the three main brands of Nabisco's UK snack division with Tudor being marketed mainly in the north of England and Walkers in the south.
After the takeover by Pepsico the Tudor name was dropped and the Smiths brand has gradually been phased out in favour of Walkers.
were they the ones who had an advert with two geordie lads...one saying to the other "deliver these papers and i`ll give ya a canny bag o crisps" turns out to be a multi story block of flats though. Or have I lost the plot????
My dad is the kid who said Deliver these newspapers and i'll give you a canny bag of crisps aha!
Sadly I've never seen the ads.
Heard alot about them though! :D
