You could buy them recently, what a travesty. there might be a flame grilled steak version coming to market soon but it would probably please people like Davkaus far far more than it will please me Edited September 4, 2021 by tonyh29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't they do squirrel flavour recently when they asked the public to come up with some mad flavours. Maybe it won but they wouldn't make it like Boaty McBoatface.

When my lad was around 6 or 7 he was in the office one day and we’d been doing a project on cuppa soups so I had all the powders left over from the various flavour houses and I also had some unflavoured crisp bases from a texture test … needless to say he came up with cuppasoup flavour crisps and wanted me to pitch it to the clients so they would pay him lots of money for it Mushroom and tomato cuppasoup might be an original flavour though thinking about it !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Squirrel was a winner in a Canadian competition a few years back , don’t recall it in the U.K. but it’s possible we had it as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That takes me back … on builders breakfast there was more than one flavour house submission and so I ran the testing to see which one of the 4 was most popular , winner then went forward to the main competition… did the duck and fish and chip ones as well … but not the other three probably one for the boring thread 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
