    Yup, they're in black packets down in the sweets aisle for 99 cent each. Never bought them for myself because I hate pork scratchings but have bought them numerous times for my ex. If you'd like, I can double check tomorrow and let you know for definite :)

    The Cheers off-licence in Ballinteer (Dublin 16) sells them intermittently. Whenever they show up I buy a feck load as they always sell out so quickly.

    I would love to know where to get them in Ireland on a regular basis.

    Willing to travel.......

    Pretty much every pub in the UK does 'em. When I was living in Manchester I had a mate who'd have a pack every time we were out - He'd try force them on me. I did try one once and near enough vomited; It was a big gooey ball of fat.

    So yeah, I'm not a fan.

    Oh, and on topic - I don't know where you can get them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,477 ✭✭✭Hootanany

    Dealz (the Irish arm of poundland) sell a few varieties, a hard type in gold multipacks and a fluffier type in blue and white bags. I've been happily munching since they opened in Cork.

    This makes me think of some sort of concoction covered in pigs' hairs.

    Bacon Fries?
    Completely different.
    They are pork crackling - roast or fried strips of pig skin as opposed to Bacon Fries which are fried corn based snacks with bacon "flavourings" - usually vegetarian friendly.
