    Well, more of a corn snack than crisps but does anybody remember these?

    completely forgot about them until I tried tesco brand curry sauce in a squeezy bottle. tastes IDENTICAL.

    They were lower end 10p crisps throughout the 90s. popular with ice cream vans and kids discos

    Yup! White packaging and a mildly racist picture of a rural chinese person on the wrapper as far as I remember. Like curry chip sticks.

    I remember a curry crisp and they were like Chipsticks except curry flavour.

    One of my all time favourites. I've longed for these for the past 15 years

    i remember another type of crisps that were out at the time, I think they were called fish n chips or something like that and they had little fish in them (salt n vinegar flavour) You could literally suck the vinegar out of them........Yum

    Been searching for info on this for years! Anyone have a picture? And possibly somewhere to get these nowadays?

    No idea but I did notice that Hunky Dorys have curry chip and salt n vinegar chip crisps out now.

    Tried the salt n vinegar and I liked them.

    Mr. Tayto was in my local supermarket earlier today where his helpers were offering samples of four new flavours - Spice Bag, Sunday Roast, Breakfast Roll and Curry Sauce. You can vote for your favourite on their website and it will appear as a limited edition later this year. You know what you need to do...

    I didn't, tbh none of the flavours particularly appeal to me so I didn't bother going over to the stand.
