The Worcester sauce ones are ok, I prefer pretzels though with salt and pepper.

14 years since they sold Worcester sauce version, Slippy

Wiki :

Twiglets are crisp wheat-based snacks[1] with a "distinctive knobbly shape" similar to that of a small twig. The taste of Twiglets derives from the yeast extract used in its coating, and has been compared to that of Marmite.[2] They are marketed in the United Kingdom and packaged in 24 gram, 45g and 105g bags, and in 200g tubs.

History
Originally launched in 1932[3] by Peek Freans, Twiglets are now made in Aintree by United Biscuits subsidiary Jacob's. In the early 1990s, a range of tangy Worcester Sauce Twiglets was introduced. These were not as popular as the original flavour and had been withdrawn by the end of the decade(ie in year 2000, Slippy.

In the media
Twiglets are the favourite snack of British comedian Justin Lee Collins,[5] footballer Ian Wright, Prime Minister David Cameron, and chef Nigella Lawson.
In the episode Do-It-Yourself Mr. Bean, Mr. Bean runs out of Twiglets at his New Year's Eve party and substitutes real twigs coated with Marmite.
Twiglets were a frequent gag reference on the original UK version of the TV game show Whose Line Is It Anyway?.
An internet meme was created from Justin Bieber eating a Twiglet on the Alan Carr talk show.[7]

I'm pretty broad minded but dislike everything about them...sorry!

they do resemble small twigs that have been shoved up someones bottom, but I actually find them quite tasty.

Pretzels with salt (not had them with pepper on) seem a bit dull after 10 mins

Remember a classic Mr Bean where was having a party and ran out of twiglets. He Snapped twigs off his Christmas tree and dipped them in Marmite Grin

They are difficult to find in supermarkets and are double the price of crisps per kg, I think.
Report blackbarn January 14, 2015 8:12 PM GMT
Twiglets were launched in 1932 and are currently made in Aintree. Just in case you were wondering
