Today we'll take a look at Crisps and other snacks from the UK that were released for the Star Wars Trilogy: Special Editions. Snack chip promotions for the Special Editions were quite prevalent in the US, and could also be found in Mexico, the UK, and even Thailand. Walkers, the UK licensee of Frito-Lay chips, produced no less than 47 different packages, including a few large foil chip bags, plastic multipack sacks, and the foil snack sized pouches found within.
All of the UK bags offered free Tazos inside, which were small photo discs not unlike American pogs. An album was available for them to be stored in. A total of 50 tazos were in the set, with 2 additional Tazos with wording variations documented.
To start off with, Walkers offered three flavors of French Fries: Worcester Sauce, Salt & Vinegar, and Ready Salted, all of which could be found in a 6-pack containing 2 of each flavor.
They also offered Quavers in three flavors: Salt & Vinegar, Original Cheese, and Tangy Tomato. These could be found in a mixed 6-pack, or as a solid 6-pack of Original Cheese.
