    There is a Burton's factory shop available to the public quite near to me, I can ask for you if you don't have any luck looking :)

    I asked about getting these on here quite a while ago. There were lots of us reminiscing about them and somebody had e-mailled them and they said they no longer made them. Sorry to dis-appoint! The picture on the link above appears to be the same thing, although different packaging. Generally though I would think that they are unavailable. I was gutted by this info too, as my dear hubby adored them.
    If practice makes perfect, and nobody is perfect....................................
    Why practice!:T

    Hi folks

    Well I must be ancient compared to you people! I remember Potato Puffs when they cost 3d (old money) and they were manufactured by a company called Walters. Back then, they came in plain flavour only. Then Burtons came along and introduced flavours. I agree the cheese and onion variety was to die for, but the chicken ones were great too. I did find them on sale at a Sunday market - probably 10 years ago now. I haven't seen them since. They were YUM!
