Sainsbury's has removed a popular item from its children's menu in cafes up and down the country - and many shoppers aren't happy.
In a bid to make the options available healthier, the supermarket has decided to ditch fried potato chips from its kids' menu.
Instead, children can choose between 1/2 a jacket potato or sweet potato fries as a side.
Despite sweet potato fries being the undeniable MVP of the chip world, people aren't happy, and think it's an absolute outrage that normal chips are still available to adults. THE AUDACITY.
Speaking to The Sun, one unimpressed shopper said: "My boy loves chips but wasn’t allowed them with his fish fingers. It’s a farce because chips are on the adults’ menu. When I pointed this out I was told kids can’t eat chips at Sainsbury’s."
A statement on the Sainsbury's website reads: "All our kids' meals are developed for children aged 5 to 10 and contain no artificial colours or flavourings. Every meal is taste-tested by school-age children to ensure it gets the thumbs up from those who matter most."
Speaking exclusively to Manchester Evening News, a spokesperson for the brand said: "We have not offered fried potato chips on the children’s menu in our cafés for 18 months, however we do offer oven cooked sweet potato fries. Customers can still buy fried potato chips and sweet potato fries from the main menu in our cafés."
