Burton's Potato Puffs

Potato Puffs were a sort of crisp manufactured by Burton Biscuits. The came in varieties of Ready Salted, Cheese and Onion and Salt and Vinegar. I'm sure that they have gone out of production now but who knows... if enough people remember them and still want them, there could be a Potato Puff revival! You have missed out the best one of all, tomato sauce flavour. Great taste and red fingers lol, ate them every day from 1959 to 1963.

    I remember buying lots of barbecue beef flavour burtons puffs, not the beefy bovril ones that were released later this was around 1975/6 and I used to spend my pocket money on these and I have never found another barbecue beef crisp that tastes as good as these did! In fact I am now wondering if XL made puffs too am I getting mixed up with the manufacturers?
