If you like warm soggy chips - you'll love these !
The packaging of these chips was very wasteful. Two layers of plastic wrapping before you get to the cardboard box.
The instructions were bizarre - way too detailed and confusing. Each box has in big red text "DO NOT REMOVE FILM WRAPPING UNTIL COOKING" - what is "film wrapping" and "until cooking" - does that mean before or after it goes in the microwave? It's just poorly worded and could have just said "remove plastic wrap BEFORE cooking".
Turn the box around and you see 6 detailed instructions which are just as confusing. Even the font used was hard to read!
Once you get past the instructions and work out all you need to do is pop them in the microwave for a few minutes - the chips come out of the microwave steaming hot.
That steam - it smells something weird - like smelly boiled potato.
Then when you go to eat them you realise what you've got - smelly boiled potato cut into chips.
The chips were hot, soggy, not crunch at all and all stuck together.
Overall - not enjoyable.
Comparatively, the Birds Eye Golden Crunch Microwave Chips Crinkles were MUCH nicer.

Bought as oven is broken, not nice, soggy, after an extra few minutes dangerously hard. Given me motivation to get oven mended
Neither McCain or Birds Eye can do a microwavable frozen chips but this one was worse.
The result? Soggy mush that would be insulting to even still call a chip.
Legitimately just normal frozen chips in a small cardboard box. They don't crisp up, they just stay soggy and warm. Better off going to the local servo. Don't recommend
It's like they got some of their chips that are supposed to be cooked in an oven, and threw them in a box to rip us off. Soggy as wet webix and taste like s**t
