Declan Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Did chips taste better when they came in newspaper? How did they wrap Chips, Cheese and Gravy or was that not a thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quilp Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 4 hours ago, Lilly said: They just tasted much better years ago. Years ago it was much more common that your fish and chips had been fried in lard or beef dripping. Some traditional chippies in the UK still do. Don't know about locally. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That just reminded me of these. Rowntrees Crunchy Fries. Hard to find a good photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe l should add it to my ever-growing bucket list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
