I have a pack of Quavers each shift I'm in, so four days a week. I love the things.

Shout out for the free Prawn Crackers that my local Chinese Takeaway does if you spend more than £20. I find the style of prawn crackers varies quite a lot in different places, but the ones my local does are flipping awesome, really light and white and cooked on the premises.
Aren't Prawn crackers kind of hard to mess up though? Maybe your local is a bit more fastidious with using fresh oil and getting the temperature right.

Some places use obviously bought in pre-made rubbish though, that would be the main distinction. I am actually mildly offended when given a small bag of pre-made crackers they fished out a wholesale box round the back. I will still eat them obviously, but under mock protest.

I find it hard to believe that any normal Chinese takeaway makes prawn crackers from scratch. I’ve been to See Woo (a Chinese wholesaler) a few times and seen so many people buying sacks of them.
A bit like when my dad had a market meat stall and used to buy sacks of pork scratchings from Smithfield. I always got the job of portioning them up in bags

They should bring back the good old salt and shake lol
But new flavours could be fetched out so you had to pour the little sachets of flavour and give em a shake.

They've been out for years, Walker's took them over from Smith's donkeys ago.
I’ve never seen any on sale anywhere! Not searched online cos I want them back in the local shops lol

Interesting, McCoys are £2.25p in our local Tesco for a six bag pack, Aldi trip might be beckoning, I prefer the meaty crisps.

I had 2 packs of those Walkers Pickled Onion earlier and they've burnt the roof of my mouth!
Speaking of Golden Wonder, do you remember these? they're nice too. They've been out for years but someone else made them before iirc.
Can't beat normal Golden Wonder either, their Pickled Onion, Salt and Vinegar and Spring Onion are to die for.
