Ear Crisps are a potato crisp range
manufactured to resemble a human ear.
Startle your friends as you place a bowl of
them in the middle of the table for after
dinner nibbles.
One in a hundred packets has a special
hidden collector's pierced crisp, with a silver
ear-
ring attached.

may I nibble on your ear? |
|
| |
no you may not! We have elephant ears, here in the U.S. They are shaped like, get this...elephant ears. |
|
| |
They are nothing but fried dough sprinkled with powerdered sugar. See link. I think. |
|
| |
Thanks a lot [blissmiss]. Now I have to go raid the fridge. I'm not gettin' any skinnier you know. |
|
| |
Availible in fine flavors such as Original, Ketchup, Salt & Vinegar, Evander Holyfield, and All Dressed. |
|
| |
As long as we're imitating body parts I have a great idea for hot dogs. |
|
| |
Wow, 7 whole annotations before a Tyson reference, that's more than double what I expected. |
|
| |
Ah, but none of the others are a serious
proposal like mine ! I'm already fielding
calls from Golden Wonder and Walkers,
and I've got Heinz working on a range
of complementary leaking wax flavours. |
|
| |
... must have been an imposter then -
serious enquiries only please ! |
|
| |
Well wags, about that suggestion of a link. Let me tell ya, I found stunning examples of elephant ears, copied, pasted, and then sat there like an idiot and waited. |
|
| |
Nothing nada zilch. When they finally appeared on the bakery, they linked to nothing, nada and zilch of course. (The origin of I wonder, ponder and then move on.) |
|
| |
My soon to be old housemate's computer is wearily slow and loses most of what I write and randomly duplicates stuff I probably shouldn't have bothered to blather oink, sorry meant on, about with to begin with. |
|
| |
As Dr. Bob so eloquently puts it, "errgh". (I think, forgive me if I misrepresented your wording.) |
|
| |
Moving to Manchester tomorrow, new housemate, new p.c. new eveything. (Manchester USA, unfortunately. //hides head in shame//.) |
|
| |
I vaguely recall what you're talking about, and found a [link] that looks like what you remember. |
|
| |
A New Mexican version is called "Sopapilla", and puffs up like a pillow (hence the name.) |
|
| |
Don't be too ashamed about Manchester, MA, USA; I know a few people who have moved there, and seem to have thrived. Best wishes on your new situation! |
|
| |
I used to enjoy eating "Haman's ears" when I was a boy in Israel, every year at Purim. (link added) |

"Wow, 7 whole annotations before a Tyson reference, that's more than double what I expected." |
|
| |
So you'd expected, like, between one and three? I don't believe you *expected* any, hidden_truths. Surely no-one would EVER give a moment's thought to the possibility of how many references to Tyson an idea for an ear-shaped potato snack would generate!! If you did, I tip my hat to you. You are as mad as a snake and clearly have way too much time on your hands. |
|
| |
How many references to Mick Jagger would my lip-shaped corn-based snack idea throw up, d'you reckon? |
|
| |
Inject a little blob of brown residue in the
centre for that realistic waxy look. |
|
| |
csea, I am sooo sorry to say, but it's not
in MA, it's Manchester CT. So thriving
may not be the word I'd use ;-) |
|
| |
Best wishes, anyway. I don't know anything much about Connecticut! |
|
| |
Good luck with the move [bliss], I hope you can pronounce Connecticut ok. |
|
| |
Why not? AS kids we loved wax lips and my kids had gum ball "eyes" and what about the "gummy worms"...I can envison all kinds of neat shapes for chips....noses, nipples, to name just a few. |
