Whatever happened to potato sticks?

Post by prospero »

Years ago you used to be able to buy what I called chipsticks. Like crisps, but thin sticks of deep-fried potato, maybe 2-3mm square. Don't know what made me think of them, but looking round the shops I couldn't find any. There are plenty of the horrible puffy sort made from maize and such, but no proper ones.

I wonder why they seem to be no longer available? :(
