Smax

Smax were oval savoury biscuit snacks similar to Fish'n'Chips. I think there may have been about three flavours. Chicken comes to mind but my favourite was smoked bacon. I can just remember watching Top Of The Pops, sucking the flavour off the biscuit before chewing it. Aah to be six again! They did come in chicken flavour but also salt and vinegar and the bacon. The best way to eat them was to suck the flavour off and then chew the biscuit. The snack window at school sold these. Wish they'd bring them back

    OMG childhood memories, loved Smax soooooo much in infants/junior school days. Smokey Bacon was my fav, also Fish and Chips. Does anyone remember a corn maize cheesy balls, cost about 3p a pack, white with an elephant on the front? This has been doing head in trying to remember.

    I used to love these snacks, sometimes you used to get a big block of the flavouring in the packet which would blow your mind!

    I loved Smax. I bought them every day from the school tuck shop but I changed primary school and never saw them again. Nobody I've asked remembers them.
