Crisps of the passed? You mean crisps owned by the dead or crisps of old?
I'm guessing the latter.

I can remember the fish 'n' chips being really strongly flavoured with loads of flavouring on them
Can anyone remember prawn flavoured crisps (as apposed to prawn cocktail)
Seabrooks garlic flavour - yuk. The only pack of crisps i could not finish!!!

"Good and Crunchy crisps", KP's attempt to make us healthy,
"Bitza Pizza", little (surprisingly accurate) Pizza flavoured triangles, advert used the tune Bits and Pieces which was probably by Manfred Mann or the Dave Clark 5, cant be arsed checking
KP Pizza flavour, big deal for us at the time I remember, all very new and exciting in about 83
"Krunchi Puffs", in 5p (tiny) and 10p (huge) sizes, challenge was to get a 5p bag in your mouth, they did Scampi and Lemon flavour, usually used to pretend you had been rooting round up some birds skirt or to rub them in someones hair
Cheese and Onions and Salt and vinegar flavour Salt and Shake, now just have the plain variety.
"Mignon's Morceaux", those Phileas Fogg things, never see them now, expensive "Premium" type things, basically small, greasy bits of garlic bread.
"Ranchos" (I think), think they were a proto Frazzle bacon type thing.
Ringos, as mentioned, used to be ace, distinctive flavour and nice consistency, they went much more porous, not nice.
Cheetos. Smiths Answer to the Wotsit, not as nice iirc, dissapeared.
"Tudor Crisps", standard crisp type crisps, advert was all in Geordie or Scottish I think "Cannae bag of Tudor" or something.
Golden Wonder, never seem to see them now.
Hedgehog Crisps, bit of a Gimick, alledgedly Hedgehog flavour, just another generic meaty crisp
Bovril Smiths, the King of crisps, last seen in a vending machine at Cheadle Leisure centre circa 1986, went well with a Hot Chocolate from the machien next to it.
Roysters, weird things, tasted of Beef, nasty
Brannigans, usually found in pubs, may still be around, quite thick and very strong, usually Beef and Mustard, made your eyes water !

Fis n Chips were great. Well tangy but I wasn't sure whether to mention them as they were actually biscuit based. Still others went first so they count.
Yum.
Probably banned due to salt content now or something.
