    lol... thats actually the reason why I won't eat them. Its true, at least they are on the ball and know what people think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,561 ✭✭✭Rhyme


    :eek: x2

    That wouldn't go down well before the watershed, or even in Ireland at all perhaps.

    I always seen those scampi fries next to the bacon fries in the pubs, now I'm glad I didn't ever buy any. Very dodgy ad indeed. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,472 ✭✭✭So Glad


    I'm just worrying that people would start doing this. I used to like scampi fries.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish

    Hahaha bloody gas... havent had them in years!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,866 ✭✭✭Adam


    They're really good, I like em, but I only ever eat that stuff when I'm out drinkin in which case the breath must not smell for teh ladies, so I never eat them...

    I'm a trapped soul :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,820 ✭✭✭Femelade


    thats horrible....i will never ever eat them now. ever.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,872 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    this makes you want to eat scampi fries... how?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,203 ✭✭✭Heyes


    That add is already broadcasting on most tv stations. Its an add you d remember, but why a company would like to compare there product to a certain smell beats me. :rolleyes: hardly makes you run out and buy it lol..

    Oh I see what you did! :D

    'Something smells funny' and then the ad goes on to suggest what Scampy Fries smell like. Very clever, I must tell people about this.

    I love scampi fries, if they had a mulitpack I'd get them all the time.

    I found a hair in a packet of scampi fries once...








    it all makes sense now


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,472 ✭✭✭So Glad


    It's not entirely like munching on a bunch of garlic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,625 ✭✭✭Sofaspud


    Scampi Fries are disgusting. They're like crisps, but fish flavoured.

    Bacon Fries FTW


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,808 ✭✭✭Dooom


    Roffle :D

    Btw, all crisps suck except Waffles. Waffles ftw.
    I'm looking in your direction Ruu..don't think I've forgotten.

    Goddamn him! He said it was glandular...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,905 ✭✭✭Aard


    Oh holy Jove. Why would you want your hands all icky-smelly?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,383 ✭✭✭emeraldstar


    i think this would have the opposite effect to what was intended by the makers of the ad....who would want to buy em now?? I know i won't eat em!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,893 ✭✭✭The_B_Man


    you've never eaten a pack of Skips then, no?

    "Interesting" ad campaign for 'Scampi Fries'

    Can't see them airing this ad anytime soon! :eek:
    I'd say it was never intended to add air on TV - its called Viral Marketing, I think its brillaint.

    Few good sites here:

    That's interesting.

    I see that ad has been uploaded EVERYWHERE. There's loads of duplicates on youtube aswell.
