Yellowrose Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Im sure I havent seen these for about 30 years. Were they in a white pack with red or blue writing on? Sort of flat chip shaped? I think my mum used to get them from the supermarket when I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidRa Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 They looked (and tasted) like yellow polystyrene:) Everything tastes the same to pigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliffhanger Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Nibbbits - been trying to explain these to my (Southern) wife for years. Bit like crispy noodles. Too much to hope that they're still about? Great with lashings of Hendo's, but had to eat em quick before they went soggy. Mate's dad had a shop on Sharrowvale Rd - used to get free Nibbits and Hendo's whilst watching Match of the Day. Talking of pub snacks, anyone remember those little bags with cheese, a Ritz cracker and an pickled onion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffhanger Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Just Googled Nibbits - could they be alive and well and living in Holland? http://www.typicaldutchstuff.com/snacks.shtml. See Smiths Multi-pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cat631 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Well said David. Nibbits were a real treat to us kids. Must say though. I'd forgotten all about them 'till I read this thread. A friend of mine once said he'd been to the Nibbit field so I naturally thought they grew in fields. What he meant was, the corn had been cut and the stubble looked like Nibbits. I'm still dissapointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snippysnoo Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Nibbits, that brings back memories pom bears are the closest in taste I have found recently, but not the same. I can remember the little snack bags with a cream cracker cheese triangle and some silverskin onions in. Can any one remember chipmunk crisps they cost 2p in the 70`s and you got a sticker with them. Happy days:thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cat631 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Great find Cliffhanger, Perhaps the Dutch fields are more suited to growing Nibbits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
