Stunned shopper finds 'world's biggest Frazzle' in his crisp packet

A shopper was stunned when he pulled out a giant Frazzle from his packet of crisps.

Sean Stewart, 22, discovered what he claims could be the world's biggest Frazzle - which was at least three times the length of a normal snack.

He bought the bag of crisps as part of a £1 multipack from an Iceland in Glasgow's West End on Monday.

To express his delight at the discovery, he shared a photo of him on Twitter holding the crisp next to a normal size Frazzle.

A tickled Sean posted the picture with the caption: "Check the size a this frazzle man. Am frazzled looking at it".

The hilarious photo has clocked up nearly 3,000 likes online prompting people to question just how the crisp managed to fit in the bag.

Sean responded: "The bag was already open and it was poking out. Was raging. Thought it would be soggy when a pulled this out - a Mary Poppins bag a Frazzles."

Social media users responded in disbelief to the supersize snack.

Rhodri Wyn Jones said: "I can't understand how this is possible. Unless you've grafted one frazzle to another to make one big super frazzle?!"

@akira-direwolf commented: "That's got to be a Guinness world record of a Frazzle."

While @conorbrn added: "That is class."

A Channel 5 documentary about Britain's best crisps came under fire in March after failing to include Frazzles in its top 20 list.

Sky Sports presenter Hayley McQueen and Twitter account The Crisp Connoisseur were among the many to criticise the omission.

Frazzles were first produced in the UK in 1975.

Despite being bacon-flavour, the corn-based crisps are suitable for vegetarians.

Mirror Online has contacted Walkers Snack Foods, which produces Frazzles, for comment.
