    Yea I remember them, the French guy was saying 'Ooh lala' in the bottom corner and they were 12p.
    More like chickatees in texture though, chipsticks were crunchier.

    Yeah, French Fries were Mr Perri now that I think of it. But did they do bacon flavoured crisps too? I can only remember Tayto & Sam Spudz doing those.

    Mod note: naynay93 - please try to use punctuation in your posts. Full stops would really help make your posts easier to read.

    The French fries themselves were bacon flavour. But I don't know if Perry made them because I can't find a picture of them anywhere. An they couldn't have just vanished.

    Might be worth mailing Largo Foods, who own the Perri brand, to ask

    Mini chips were like matchsticks and solid potato. Tesco do giant bags of own brand mini chips at a reasonable price.

    These were airy snacks like chips sticks. I think the lad on the pack had a beret and scarf.
