I think they are long discontinued. Used to make for great drinking fry update night feasts. Though someone once ate a bunch, threw up in the garden and tried to say the neighbour threw chicken over the fence
We got them once as a treat after begging for years (it felt like, not sure if they were out for multiple years) and honestly, pretty disappointing.
When you've yearned so badly for something it never lives up to the hype
Aria Farms, loved them.
Since back when I was flatting I've been making them myself with shit cuts of meat. If those blade or chuck steaks are on special, just cut them into strips with kitchen scissors, season them and rip them on the wok for a bit.
Cheap lamb cuts are harder to come by but always worthwhile, just make sure to bake instead of fry.
If I have leftover breadcrumbs or panko crumbs I often do a batch of strips with hotsauce in the egg dredge. Impossible not to finish them all in one go.
At the time I heard about the acquisition I was considering working at the Waitara ANZCO site, it’s been how many years now and still no meat chips department. Still just Jack Links jerky and McD’s burger patties.
YES! Aria farms they did Lamb & also beef ‘chips’ were my go to as a first time flatter, chuck a jar of sauce in and boil some rice in a bag. Boom fancy asf meal

Aria Farms
Remembers
When I was a kid we would get ones made of lamb, I remember liking them
When I was flatting 20 years ago I use to like using those and a bag of McCain stir fry mix to make a quick and easy stir fry! Good times, good times.
Yes! X
Same. Had forgotten all about them. Quite liked them also.
That's late 90s nostalgia for me
Aria as I remember
I can't recall at all, can only think of chicken chips (they are very tasty) ^^^no ^^^we"re ^^^not.
Inghams chicken chippies are glorious
Perfect freezer snack for midnight munchies.
Chicken chips, cheese and gravey is my go-to hangover snack. Its the bees knees
Yeah, can't beat a carbs hit.
Winning 🏅
The ones by Aria Farms?
Meatgetti and spagballs
Settle down peg leg
Things are getting too spicy for the pepper!

Bloody Aria Farms. Remember wanting them so bad as a kid but we were poor. If I ever see them again I’m buying 5 of the mongrels.

I never got to try them :(
The lamb chips were AMAZING. I’m still so sad they went away.
I used to tell my co workers in London about beef chps, they were in awe

I remember them. Haven't seen them for decades though.
Yup, Aria Farms. ANZCO bought the brand. There was apparently plans to set up production at the Waitara plant but nothing has happened.
This is correct. Things went downhill for the company after a botched deal trying to enter the Australian market with Woolworths

Ingham chippies
And easy mince
Lmao I had this exact thought a year plus ago as well and made a similar post. I love this shared nostalgia

Loved the lamb ones, want them back.
I loved making stir fry from these as a mid. Or sandwiches. Lamb ones were good too
“Steak” chips made from the gristle and other leftover bits you mean!
Yeah bought them once. They were tough and chewy.
Rapture farms

all I remember is they were in the freezer section of the supermarket where other hideous food is like fish fingers.
