Short, thick chips cut into stubby batons, designed specifically for scooping up sauces and dips. They're a frozen potato side, usually oven-cooked or air-fried from frozen, with more surface area and a softer centre than skinny fries. Chunky shapes hold sauce without disappearing into it, so they work well alongside ketchup, mayo, or curry sauce. Compared with standard straight-cut chips in the same range, these are stockier and more compact, almost like a halfway point between a chip and a wedge. Edges crisp up nicely in the oven while the inside stays fluffy, and the shorter length makes them easier for smaller hands to manage at the dinner table.
