    When was the barbecue potato chip invented?

    Question #32494. Asked by Receiver. (Apr 27 03 12:41 AM)


    McGruff

    I'm not finding any specific history on barbecue flavoured chips, however, a Dublin-based company called Tayto was first to introduce 'Cheese and Onion' and 'Salt 'n' Vinegar' flavoured chips in the 1940s. Other potato chip manufacturers used the same technology to add other natural and artificial flavours to chips with varying degrees of success.

    I've just returned home from a trivia night at the first Irish Club I have ever attended to raise funds for The Children's Medical Research Foundation and by coincidence had my very first packet of Irish potato chips 'Salt 'n' Vinegar' and you wouldn't believe the {brand;} Tayto. And in Australia as well.

    I can hardly believe the coincidence McGruff!
