  3. Skydiver Crisps

This Memory is looking a little short on nostalgia! Have you got anything you could add?

Skydiver crisps were corn snacks shaped like little men with their arms out and legs spread. (A bit like Quarterback shapes now). They came in the usual flavours, but the salt and vinegar ones were particularly potent!

    We had these for Christmas ( not for dinner, but part of the big food shop!) and I loved them- so much so that they featured in a story I had to write when I was at primary school!
