Nostalgic Snack Returns After Decade-Long Absence!
11 Mar
Summary
- Crispy Potato Ritz In A Biskit returns after being discontinued in 2015.
- A new Korean sweet and spicy flavour has also been launched.
- Both new flavours are available nationwide for $4 per pack.
A cherished snack, the Crispy Potato flavour of Ritz In A Biskit, has returned to Australian supermarket shelves after a hiatus of more than ten years. This popular biscuit was originally discontinued in 2015, disappointing many fans who remembered it from lunchboxes and after-school snacks.
The brand first made a partial comeback in 2021 with the revival of Chicken and Drumstix flavours. Now, the highly anticipated Crispy Potato flavour joins them, accompanied by an entirely new offering inspired by Korean sweet and spicy seasoning. This expansion reflects a growing trend of global flavours in everyday snacks.
Both the Crispy Potato and the new Korean-inspired flavours are currently available across Coles, Woolworths, and IGA nationwide, retailing at $4 per pack, though some shoppers have found them on special for $2. Mondelez Australia noted that nostalgia played a significant role in the decision to bring back the flavour.
Fans have expressed excitement about the return of Crispy Potato, with many reminiscing about its popularity throughout the 1990s. While some are thrilled, others are campaigning for the return of other discontinued flavours like Big Cheese, Vegemite, Bacon, and Nacho.
