what about those bacon flavoured crisps that were shaped like 3-D pigs? they were cool too, and out at about the same time.
oh, and lets not forget the short-lived 'hedgehog' flavoured crisps.

Piglets were tiny little potato pigs with a hollow middle. They were baked bean flavour and very similar to Burton's Potato Puffs. Another favourite of the school Tuck Shop!

There's definitely no pork in pork scratchings.

According to their website, the first two ingredients are pork rind and pork fat.

I remember Potato Puffs. The cheese and tomamto flavour was divine. It's true, they did sell them in our tuck shop - because they were cheap and very popular. The corner shop sold them as well.

I used to love my scratchings too, until I started a job working for an independent wholesaler that sold tobacco and confection as well as vending. I started at the bottom and worked my way through the company and ended up in sales. I saw every part of that company and the only thing that sticks in mind the most was that first day and the very first job of the day was to go and pick up the pork scratchings from the B&N factory.
If you can imagine a Renault Master Hi-top loaded floor to roof with scratchings that had been out the fryers less than an hour. It were like a pork sweat sauna. Grim as f*** it was and scarred me for life.
Jesus, I nearly puked. Since that day I have never touched a scratching again.
