How to approach it
Treat the task as a walk through shops rather than a test of advertising recall. Clear your head of the names that shout from roadside hoardings and forecourt fridges, and park them to one side. Then widen the field: childhood favourites, labels sold in a single county, packets carried back from a trip, family firms still bearing the founder's surname, supermarket own-ranges that print a genuine name on the wrapper. A week abroad, a summer at a relative's table, the shelves of a village grocer, all count as sources. Jot down far more candidates than you need, check the spelling of each one, and settle on a name you are confident belongs to a real commercial label rather than a description of the snack.
Get a hint
Sweep the whole savoury-snack shelf instead of one style: sliced and fried, puffed, extruded, baked or vegetable-based all sit inside the same family of packaged brands.
A little more
Weigh two dimensions together, reach and territory: a name confined to one nation, one province or one immigrant neighbourhood outscores one beamed across the planet.
One step further
Settle on a name you would have to spell out letter by letter for a friend, the sort that shows up in an import aisle or a village grocer's, and drop anything printed on a stadium hoarding.

Why these answers count
The scoring curve stays unusually flat through the middle: 2,569 separate labels each landed on 85 points, so the scale is separating reach from local knowledge far more than good picks from weak ones. The 75 names parked at 60 look, on that reading, like the entries a stranger could produce blind, printed on hoardings and stocked beside every till: correct, yet free to think of. Points then arrive through distance. A name confined to one country, one region or a lone import aisle reads as specialist knowledge even where the player is only recalling a summer at a relative's table. The sample bears that out: The Whole Shabang took the lone 100, while Amaizin, Bissli and Brad's all settled at 85. None of those would greet you from a roadside poster, which is the point: specificity earns, fame does not.
