Intro In the beginning some 50 odd years ago there were but a few manufacturers of crisps. During the early 50's it was Smith's Salt and Shake, which I can first remember. This particular brand is now part of the Walker Empire. Later on there were another two main manufacturers whom I can remember who are still in business today they are of Course KP and Golden Wonder. It is only recently I became aware of the origins of the Golden Wonder trade mark..................I had no idea there was a potato with that name.

I'm surprised to see only one other review on here for these Phileas Fogg Sea Salt & Indonesian Black Peppercorn flavour crisps and that the writer, GentleGenius didn't reckon that much to them by awarding only a single star rating.

I adore crisps and could seriously live on them. Not a healthy thought granted but a tasty one in my book! The other day my mate went shopping and got us a few bags of these and me, well I was well excited to try them out!
