Why are ready salted crisps called ready salted, instead of just salted?!


Question: You don't get ready cheese and onion or ready salt and vinegar.


Answers: You don't get ready cheese and onion or ready salt and vinegar.

hi kitty i love you ..meow

Traditionally crisps came with a bag of salt (some still do). To distinguish, those without the bag and are already salted are Ready Salted.

they used to (and some still do ) have little bags of salt in them giving you the option of adding it or not.

an abbreviation fore (all ready sated)

Marky beat me to the answer.

Because crisps originally came plain with no flavouring on them, but a small paper folded with salt in and then in time, when the crisps were produced and flavoured, they came "ready salted" hence the name.

Because you don`t need to add salt they are already salted, years ago they had a little blue twisty bag full of salt in the packet to salt your own, sometimes there were 2 bags and if you got a handfull of crisps sometimes you bit into the bag of salt, I think thats why they salted them for you now

saltede for you, years ago you got a little blue bag to do it your self.
