Mmmm... boiled bran flavoured crisps. Yummy! Love it with a bit of dried bovril. In all seriousness the flavours could have been stronger and less regulated then than they are now.
On a very random note their fashion is super interesting. It wasn’t long ago that everyone had their heads covered all the time! Men wore flat caps, or top hats. Women wore headscarves or hats
The first time I watched "Look around you" season 2, specifically the Petticoat 5 sketch with Patricia ________ (silent surname LOL), played by Belinda Stewart-Wilson, I thought the teeth were a joke. The host in this clip certainly shows those teeth were a thing.
They are right. Most people are used to what the crisp flavors taste like and can now identify them, as well as the association with packaging but in reality they don't taste much like what they are supposed to represent unless heavy with salt, vinegar or that cheese flavoring. If they came up with any new ones the public would struggle to identify anything in the same way
My god, the recklessness of the BBC introducing the primitive tribal 1970's British public to such exotic flavours as chicken, prawn cocktail, and plain. Please, think of the children!
It was deliberately promoted to the public to create poor diet choices. The GOV has always wanted to hurt the public. They were doing germ wormfare tests on the same public at this time.
British invented crisps. These were all new flavours. No one else in the world had. So you seem confused about the historical significance and judge it based on your idea of the modern world. You lack imagination and intelligence.
now i see how we ended up with that stereotype... the teeth thing. that's really not that common though, its mainly posh people due to inbreeding. lol.
Back in my day, there were one flavour and one flavour only; Tripe, and we ate it whether we liked it or not, and if I we didn't eat it, we'd get a clip round ear with belt. The good old days...
She was Mental, didn't have a Geordie accent and seemed to believe that Geordies aren't English, That's Life used to deliberately root out the Crazies.
These were blind tastings. I think marketing goes a long way in our perception of flavour. When I see a picture of roast chicken on the packet then that’s what I’ll expect.
Those people are right, I don't think many of us would know what flavour the crisps were unless it said so on the pack. Onion is probably the only flavour they can replicate
This is just a reminder that if you think that crisps taste like what is written on the packet you might need your tastebuds testing. Get it free on the NHS.
I see your point, these are natural teeth and were/still are acceptable. Now most in society are walking around with Turkey Teeth, so I'd rather have Esther's than that 😂
