Hedgehog flavour crisps
- ... that in 1980s Britain you could buy hedgehog flavoured crisps? "first sold the savoury snacks in printed brown paper bags while he was landlord of the former Vaults public house in Welshpool in the 1980s." from: "Hedgehog Crisps' Welshpool inventor dies, aged 74". Shropshire Star. 28 February 2017. Retrieved 7 August 2021.
- ALT1:... that the manufacturers of hedgehog flavoured crisps were taken to court under the Trade Descriptions Act as they did not contain actual hedgehog?

Simon and Schuster. p. 75. ISBN 978-1-4165-8318-9. and "they said the words 'Hedgehog flavour' broke the Trade Descriptions Act" from: "'Hedgehog crisps' are back on sale".

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, well-sourced, neutral and plagiarism-free. Hooks are interesting and cited in article. QPQ has been done. Article is good to go. I have no preference over ALT0 and ALT1 as both are interesting. Pamzeis (talk) 11:56, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
- How could you possibly have no preference? ALT1 is the funniest hook I've ever seen on DYK. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 07:32, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
