Hula Hoops

From Free net encyclopedia

This article is about the snack food Hula Hoops. For the toy, see hula hoop.

Hula Hoops are a salted potato-based snack product, in the shape of short, hollow cylinders. They are named after the hula hoop, a similarly-shaped toy. They are popular in Ireland and Britain. They are currently available in five flavours: original (salted), Barbecue Beef, Cheese and Onion, Roast Chicken and Salt and Vinegar. They are produced by KP Snacks, part of United Biscuits.

Hula Hoops packets have traditionally been red, and this remains the colour for the original flavour. Various on-pack promotions and TV advertising have ensured their popularity over many years.
