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!

    The salt and vineger tasted radio active! Something to do with the density of the corn / maize I think. they were exceptional!
