[Albion] Pringles

[clapham_gull]

Whatever they are, they're not very nice. "Once you pop, you can't stop" - bollocks. I did, and I can. Quite easily. Very bland.

My current weapon of choice is the grab-bag cheesy Wotsits. Once I open a bag of those suckers, there's no stopping me. I won't even pause to answer the phone if I'm still shovelling them into my gaping maw. Leave a message.

I don't go into work much these days but when I did I was FAMOUS for my sausage rolls. My secret ingredient was to dismiss the use of breadcrumbs as a binder and to replace them with crushed frazzles.

I've giving away too much here.

You've just given me an idea for my next batch of home-made scotch eggs I rustle up occasionally. And I just so happen to have a bag of own brand Co-Op bacon rashers in the cupboard, which would do just the trick.

Is it too late to start preparing all that now ? Its too late isn't it. Or is it.

DAMN you CG. I don't need dilemmas at nearly midnight.

I used to dabble in the scotch egg area as well. Don't dismiss crushed pork scratchings as an alternative.

I've been living in Liverpool on and off for the past month. My favourite food is Spanish, but pretty much everything up here is always a Northern foreign fusion, much more than down south, whether that be curry sauce with fish and chips or "salt and pepper chips".

This very expensive Spanish shop in the centre does a "Chorizo pie", you'd only get up North.

Light pastry base (seasoned with paprika), filled with mashed potato, finely chopped Chorizo topped with Spanish Cheese and baked.

Best eaten chilled, like the best Tortilla I have eaten in Barcelona with a chilled white wine.

Utter game changer in pie technology and would sell out at the Amex in seconds.

Used to do a vegetarian batch of sausage rolls as well to take into work. Nothing better to lighten up the day of a plant eater than to enlighten their taste buds with a dose of synthetic pork.

Frazzles are an underused ingredient.

They’re made with potato starch I think, not actual whole potato. It’s ultra processed into essentially a foam. Which is shaped and cooked.

I’m rather partial to the bbq ones but three or four do me. Once I’ve popped, I’m happy to stop. Please and thank you.

One of the only things I remember from the marketing element of my degree course is the concept of an EXTRUDED SNACK.

Extruded Snacks are processed to produce the shape/texture, whereas a crisp is a thin slice of raw potato that is then fried.

As such, I'm calling: NO. Pringles are an extruded snack and not a crisp.

Disclaimer: I might have recalled this all incorrectly.

So Monster Munch aren't crisps ? Well I never.

No. We invented TUCCos.

The Universal Crisp COmpany.

On reflection, we were just as bad as those Apprentice ****s.

Was your ad campaign…

TUCCos
They’re not for sharing. Because who gives a TUCCo?

Chilled? I want my tortilla warm and absolutely oozing.

Shouldn't you have invented Tesco, The Extruded Snack co?

What sort of f*****g lecture was that all about Bozza? Sounds riveting.

When I was at the uni, the riveting lectures were the ones on aircraft assembly.

 

[chickens]

I have no strong views either way.

Radcliffe and Maconi do a crisp slot on their Sunday show, where people send them in "crisps" to try. They get sent all sorts of nonsense

What’s with all the Pringles hate?

They aren’t my favourite by a long stretch (that would be these: https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/301401987 )

But Pringles are okay, just stupidly overpriced - but then nobody ever buys them at full price anyway

I am like that with the cheese nibbles in Tesco
