If you would like to send us something, please send to our P.O. box:

I'm Welsh, and when we were kids our parents thought that buying any flavour of crisps other than plain was being ostentatious, so on a Sunday night after a bath, we would pour salt and actual vinegar into a family sized bag of plain crisps and shake them vigorously. We thought it was such a treat, soggy crisps and Sunday night television.
Yikes, soggy crisps!
Yikes! Being Welsh!
It is good you liked different ones best. No fighting over them lol
Hi Lesley! No fight, no one was injured in the making of the video :D Happy Tuesday!
I remember mad cows disease back in the 90s i refused to eat beef for a while. All these crisps sound so good i have not tried any of them. Aw good to see Finn enjoying some too.
Hi Keza, Happy Tuesday to you! Yep, the mad cow disease was a crazy time - 1986 to 2001, peaked at 1993. If you try the crisps, please let us know what you think of them. Glad you liked seeing Finn, our little quality assurance taster :)
I remember going to Mcdonalds for a burger during the outbreak. The assistant said we get all our beef from France now. I said 'but France have it too'. I got a blank look and I said I was going to KFC lol

I’m a total crisp addict . Not so much salt & vinegar but love most other flavours..my current favourite is Tyrell’s Black garlic & sour cream, they are amazing!. Thanks to Richard for keep the goodies coming so we can enjoy your videos.👏🏼
That's one flavour I can't seem track down black garlic I had all other Tyrells flavours. Which part uk are u? I tried all over North of England can't get them can't seem find them on ebay or amazon if u have go to shop could u let me know so I can order a bag or two please .
I wish you hadn't mentioned them. I haven't seen them before but they sound amazing and now I'll have to find them :)
Hi DizzieLizzie, Happy Tuesday! Crisp addicts here too, we can never have 'just one' :) Ohh black garlic sour cream - we were lucky to find black garlic cream cheese at our local Trader Joes last weekend, can't wait to try it. Those Tyrell's you mentioned sound wonderful :) Very big thank you to Richard, we really appreciate the chance to try these wonderful items :)
I`ve got to go to M&S - soon. I love the sound of Beef Wellington and mushroom flavoured crisps.
Hi there! Hope you fidn them, they're very tastey! If you pick them up, please let us know what you think of them. Happy Tuesday!
Foot and Mouth broke out in 2001 in the UK. We went on holiday to the Cotswolds and the place was deserted, so you may be mixing up foot and mouth with mad cows disease, which broke out in 1986. Foot and Mouth was just as hideous, especially for the animals, with over 6 million (mainly cows) being culled.
Yes I was mixing it up. That fits with the time when my mom traveled to England. She remembers being questioned about whether she had walked through any pastures.
I haven't had those. Supermarkets own brands in Britain have improved a lot in recent years. It's not just crisps, other things are so much better than in the past. Is that the case in America.
We buy more Trader Joe's brand than other stores. They can be hit and miss with some great and others just okay. We like Target stores, but their store brand items are often lacking.
I love Salt and Vinegar too.
Hi Graham, Happy Tuesday! They're very addictive! :D Thanks for watching!
Watch out for the British Aldi salt and vinegar. They are dangerous, they burnt my mouth. I like strong flavours but they are on another level.
@@neilgayleard3842 that sounds like some of the salt and vinegar chips we have here.
They all sound delicious. I like walkers paprika flavour crisps from they sensation range ❤ Love you guys. Thanks so much to Richard as well for an excellent range of flavours.
Thanks Beverley. We've tried some flavors from the sensations range and they've always been good. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend. ❤
Paprika, always great on crisps!!
Paprika is great on so many things! I like it on potato soup and deviled eggs.
Ridge cut? Ahh, yes we call them "Crinkle Cut" 🤣🤣🤣
We tend to associate crinkle cut with fries! 🍟
THE "MAD COW " STARTED IN 1986, AND IN 1990 IS WHAT IT SAYS ON GOOGLE, I COULDN'T REMEMBER BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS THE 1990S.
Based on another comment, I was confusing it with foot and mouth, based on the timeline. Also just read that the US has been importing beef from the UK since 2020! Not sure why we've heard of beef-based items being taken in customs.
Oooooh😯, bacon 🥓 😋.
Always a great flavor.
Some very interesting flavours in there, I've never tried sherry vinegar so I think they would be nice to try. When we had the mad cow episodes in 2000 I remember going to Dublin and having to walk through disenfected mats.Are Oxo cubes banned in America, I make hot drinks from the beef and the vegetable cubes, makes a change from tea and coffee, enjoy eating the rest and make some crisp butties.
It was a foot and mouth disease outbreak in in 2000/1 still a terrible epidemic with 6 million cow and sheep destroyed before it was brought under control. BSE/mad cow was down to animal feed having brain and nerve tissue from other animals mixed into it during late 80’s early 90’s
Of course it was, I'm getting mixed up with the foot and mouth disease and the mad cow disease both of which took their toll on the farmers and animals
Hi Michael. We haven't seen Oxo cubes, but we do have similar products. My mom mentioned the disinfected mats too.
@@johnleonard9090 that was it! My mom traveled around that time and I was confusing it with mad cow.
hi great vid my fav crisps are chicken flavors i had marmite cheese today it was nice don't no if your seen it yet😄
We've heard about the Marmite cheese, but don't see it here. It sounds really good!
try crisp sandwiches
Hi Richard! Thank you for watching, we actually did a crisp butty video -

Maybe we should re-visit it with these fine crisps. We still need to do a chip butty. Happy Tuesday!
Oooowww, throat mics
So your Mum is from the UK? Which part Tina??
Hi Phil, she's not from the UK, though has distant ancestry from there. She traveled to England in the early 2000s.
Is Finn Welsh??
Yes he's a Pembrokeshire corgi breed.
Problem with British Beef, oh, what in 1996?
I do hope you aren't handing out infected blankets to the indigenous people!
We weren't even aware of the ban on British beef products until we started doing the channel. Apparently it's been lifted for a few years, bur we've heard of people getting beef flavored items getting removed from boxes by customs.
