You can’t get lamb and mint any more though. I bloody loved that flavour
ham and pickle were my fav and then roast beef and mustard branigans...roast lamb and mint were okay though.

Update:
These Tesco finest roast beef and horseradish are good crisps, nice crunch to them, decent thickness of the ridge cut and tasty, dangerous in fact, easy to demolish a bag in a single sesh but I resisted.
Great value at £1.35p for a 150gm bag or was it £1.25p ? They put more expensive named brand crisps to shame, deffo gonna try more of this range.

Just seen a bag of Pipers Longhorn Beef crisps turn up in the weekly shop, good for a comparison with Tesco's finest roast beef and horseradish.
How come there isn't a Instant Crisp Machine kitchen gadget? Yeah yeah, air fryer. and spray oil But what I would want is a machine I can literally throw a large unpeeled potato, put in a packet of flavouring somewhere, and have crisps spat out the other end. Alright, alright, I would peel it manually first if that is a deal breaker, but I just want instant crisps dammit.
Is opening a packet not instant enough for you?
A proper magic crisp machine would need to slice up the potato and then flavour and fry it. So it would probably be quite big. There might be a more viable option using some sort of pre-processed powdered/liquid potato substance. You press a button and the machine pumps out a cheese and onion flavoured blob which is squashed flat and cooked between some hot metal plates and pops out the end as a crisp type product.
Kickstarter?

My life expectancy would be significantly reduced if that was a thing.
Whatever machine they use to make Pringles I would settle for a kitchen size one of them. They are surely made from a powder you could bulk buy in Aldi for 2 quid a kilo. But a proper tatty to warm crisp machine would be the gold standard.

Update:
These Pipers beef crisps are OK but my view is that the Tesco's Finest roast beef and horseradish are better by quite a way including value for money, taste and crunch.
No comparison really, Tesco's Finest are a damned good crisp and at a great price, discounted on Club Card at the moment, superb value for top class crisps.

I always have a good old laugh at the elaborate names the posh crisp brands give to their crisps to disguise the fact that they are just variations of cheese and onion and salt and vinegar.
Like Staffordshire Roast Hog (Smokey Bacon)
50 year aged Stilton and Shallots (Cheese and Onion)
Baltic Sea Salt and Refined Balsamic Grape Squeezings (Salt and Vinegar)
I know, it’s dumb. But you gotta try the garlic and cheese onesI always have a good old laugh at the elaborate names the posh crisp brands give to their crisps to disguise the fact that they are just variations of cheese and onion and salt and vinegar.
