HI

On my most recent flight from NYC, I was served crisps but they were a funny shape and had odd colours such as purple, anyway I really enjoyed them and would like to know if I can purchase them. I did not think to ask CC at the time what they were.

Does anyone know what type of crisps these are and if they can be purchased anywhere else?

Thanks

Were they root vegetable crisps a la Tyrrells? If so you can get them in UK supermarkets.

Thank you. I think you may be right! The pictures look very familiar.

Waitress is a really good stockist of Tyrells.

Thats the only place where I know where you can get the Chilli Rice Crackers that I had at the bar! LOVE THEM!!

Chilli rice cracker can also be acquired at Holland & Barret, I hunted them out years ago after trying them in UC.

M&S do their own version

Thanks. Just brought a pack from the local sainsbury's, they seem to have tasted much better on my UC flight

I personally thought the "nuclear orange" crisps they served [by default] on the inbound flight to the UK were disgusting. Ate half of one and left the rest. Asked the crew for some "normal crisps" when they came round and got crisp bowl of salted Kettle Chips very quickly.

Each to their own I guess, but those nuclear orange "crisps" were dreadful IMO.

I love them too. Have you tried Waitrose own version. It's a larger packet and a bit spicier.

I have been served some awful things masquerading a 'crisps' which they were definitely not several times. Whats wrong with a handful of walkers ? ON a flight I want comfort food - not Masterchef.

Agreed. On several flights I have even seen 'crisps' sent back in favour of something a touch simpler.
