Aunt Bessie's Skin-On Chips Win Praise for Air-Fryer Crispiness

Local reviews and hundreds of shopper ratings single out the ~£2.50 frozen pack for very crispy air-fried results, boosting interest as Iceland lists it in current multi‑buy deals.

Overview

  • Journalists who tested the product published positive first‑hand reviews on Monday, May 25, saying a 20‑minute air‑fry (with a midway shake) produced crisp, well‑seasoned chips with little grease.
  • Both Liverpool Echo and Bristol Live noted the chips cost about £2.50 and are included in Iceland’s multi‑item promotions, with the coverage updating earlier mentions to the retailer’s 15 for £15 offer.
  • Reviewers compared the frozen chips favorably to fast‑food fries, with some saying they taste better than KFC and hundreds of online shoppers posting similar praise.
  • The reports rely on a single journalist trial plus aggregated customer reviews rather than lab testing, and the journalists warned that not every home cook may achieve the same level of crispiness.
  • The story taps into two trends that explain the product’s appeal: widespread use of air fryers in UK homes and value‑focused frozen food promotions that make a convenient, budget‑friendly freezer staple.
