[Food] Anyone else still eating these bad boys?

Pork Scratchings must be one of unhealthiest foods ever (basically salty fried fat), doesn't stop me having them now and again...

There's a scratching thread from a while back which included a porky photo from one of our Spanish brethren, that was absolute filth.
It's stayed with me since and is very much a happy place photo.
Were Clare Grogan to have been leaping out of the bowl I doubt I'd have seen the outside world ever again.


Anyhoo Frank Skinner can't get enough of these:-

has anyone else heard of them before?

 

[Guinness Boy]

Oh yes. They do some good ones in The Foghorn.

Before lockdown I'd regularly work in Birmingham, often a couple of days a week at a time. Every now and again there was a fella selling big bags of really good pork scratchings near New St, just down the hill from the Head of Steam. They were the best ones I've ever had and only lasted the train journey home because I'd imagine very loud, salty crunching and the smell of them would probably annoy other passengers. They didn't last 5 minutes when I got in though.

I thought you were a vegetarian.

Since we're talking slightly obscure snack/crisps, these are hard to find but brilliant;

Obviously don't actually taste much like a Cheese and Ham Toasted Sandwich, but that's besides the point.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Love them….especially the scratchings which have the salty chewy stuff on them…..usually one or two of these in a bag.

Apparently not.

Get stuck in

Er......OK.......Hmmmmmm.....



(I am also fond, but one pack every 3 moths seems about right. Must get some in for Christmas, though._

You’re eating them with moths ? It’s worse than I thought.

The Awfully Posh ones were recommended on a diet I followed as a healthy snack as they were high protein, no sugar, etc.

Diet worked well…the fact that I am now on statins for high cholesterol is, I’m sure, purely coincidental

Have to say, always found pork scratchings vile. Even in ye olden days when the only alternative was a sweaty cheese 'n' onion roll served from under a perspex dome behind the bar

The hairy ones are best.

They’re basically very spicy chili Doritos that have curled up while cooking. My kids are mad for them, few corner shops round here sell them for silly money, but I think they’re rank. Also pretty sure they’re not pork at all.

I always thought moths preferred eating my jumpers to pork scratchings.

Oh well what do l know?

Unfortunately, where I live now, Almería, is an absolute chicharrones desert.
