Discount supermarket chain Aldi has launched garlic bread-flavoured crisps - much to the delight of snack enthusiasts on social media.
Just when you think they've thought of it all, you think "Where can they go with this next?", the German retailer has hit consumers with a pairing made in heaven - fusing garlic bread and crisps to create Specially Selected Garlic Bread Crisps!
The new concoction, priced at just £1.15 for a 150g bag, hit shelves on Sunday (30th July) and are believed to be the first of its kind to grace a UK supermarket’s aisles.
Packed full of fin-gar-lickin’ good flavour, shoppers will be hit with the delicious taste of smoky garlic, whilst experiencing the hearty crunch of Aldi's premium Specially Selected crinkle cut crisp style.
The launch has caused quite a stir on social media, with one post on Facebook gaining over 500 comments already and rising.
One shopper commented "need these in my life", with another expressing "what in the actual!!!"
Other obvious references to the classic Peter Kay sketch have been made too.
But not everyone was convinced by the new crisp flavour.
"They probably just taste like garlic butter cuz how they would taste like bread", one person commented, which is probably fair.
