87/88 ish . 'hedgehog' was a brand. They did 3 flavours iirc. Their original flavour was just called hedgehog, but I think the small print disassociated itself from actually tasting of hedgehog.
Does anyone actually know what roast hedgehog tastes like?
I seem to remember hedgehog coated in mud and baked in the fire as being a delicacy somewhere.
I seem to recall that the crisp manufacturers employed some elderly members of the travelling community wh were supposedly able to verify the authenticity of the flavour

A bit of a mid-way house between guinea pig and water vole with maybe a hint of dormouse. :D

I've actually eaten guinea pig. There was so little meat on it I couldn't really say what it tasted of...

Yes, but it's not allowed near a PROPER Ulster Fry!

Anybody tried these yet?

They've had the Ulster Fry ones out a few times now. I wonder are they the same?
I definitely think they should retain the Curry Chip flavour.

Had to take a curry chip back to John Dorys the other night because they had put salt'n'vinegar on it. The curry sauce is dosed with salt to start with and vinegar is just wrong.

I like S&V on my curry chips. The vinegar adds a bite to the sweetness of the 'curry'.

I think you're not alone. They always ask if you want it.

Shirley it's beside the Lisburn Road - If it was on the road, the cars wouldn't be able to drive along it.

The cars can't drive along it. They have to drive on the road. It's not like Burger King at Ballyskeagh nor McDonald's at Sprucefield.

I need a Chicken Maryland! The sort you used to get on a high tea menu in an old style hotel. Where would I get that? I'm thinking a golf club or somewhere may still do the real mccoy!
