I have seen the future

    I love crisps. They're great, and I've been eating them for many years, but today I stumbled across a way in which I can change the crisp world forever.

    There I was, milling through a packet of red King when I felt a powdery substance at the end of the bag. This isn't normal, but the crisps were getting progressively nicer, so I wasn't going to complain. As I got closer to the end, I swiftly figured out that this substance, this powder from the Gods, is the nicest thing I'd ever tasted. It was powdered King, but my lord it was divine: the texture, the taste, the way you can rub it into your gums. Hell, me and conversative Laura with the good hair from the opposite desk liquified it, shot it into our arses, took the rest of the day off and woke up on a mattress on Dollymount Strand. Yes, really.

    Golden Brown, texture like King.

    Everything about it was exceptional and although there was only a small quantity of it, I'm now wondering where I can get more. I'm wondering if it was just one packet in a dud batch sent out by Largo Foods. I'm wondering if I go back to Super Valu in Swords and buy up every bag will they all have the same powder hidden at the bottom of it?

    I have seen the future, ladies and gentlemen, and it's powdered crisps.

    Take a crisp and crush it up. Get a credit card and continue to chop it up until it's a fine powder. Roll up a high denomination note, place in your nostril and inhale the powder. It will make you feel like a God!!!

    Ah, easy to mix them up. Like raisins.

    Roasted peanuts - finer bits at the end are scrumptious

    I'm intrigued, powder crisps, I'd buy some. How about other snacks, like nuts.. think there could be a market for this.
    Or cinnamon

    Just don't sniff it, trust me I know.

    Ooooh I love that powdery stuff, I found something similar in a bag of bacon fries ages ago and I've been buying up stock of BF ever since hoping for a repeat but it appears it was a one off.

    You've seen the future too it seems.

    I had deejay vu during a premonition....

    Walkers baked salt & vinegar, the powder left at the bottom is proper, as morish as crack cocaine.

    if you are ever in the chippers in Sheffield or Leeds, you can order 'bits' on the side, and they are the left over crumbs of rashers and other malarkey that they gather up from around the edge of the fryer. If you can imagine a Yorkshire accent... 'would you like that w'bits luv?'

    Went back to the source, bought another packet and I can confirm that the powderised version was limited to my bag it seems. But I'm upbeat. This was a once in a lifetime experience. It's better to have loved powdered King and lost than never have had loved powdered King at all.
