Chipmunk Crisps were made in Long Buckby in the 1970s. Chipmunk was famous for its Oxo flavour. We’ve found photos of Salt & Vinegar flavour too. We think there was a Tomato Sauce flavour. Can anyone verify that?

I remember smiths crisps were first to be produced in the late 50s – plain flavour with a little blue paper twist parcel of salt. I recall that chipmunk were the first flavoured crisps with a strong beefy flavour in the early 60s.

I almost agree I was 13 in 1960 and seem to remember having them before the bit it was 62years ago so I could easily be a couple of years out either way. However what isn’t in doubt is the fact that they were the first flavoured crisps and for me the best ever!
