McCain Baby Hasselbacks are making their debut in the UK as the brand's largest new product development in more than a decade. The product comes as mini versions of the namesake potato side dish, and features baby potatoes that have been pre-sliced and have the skin left on for a rustic and crispy taste experience when freshly baked. The product comes with a sachet of sea salt and cracked black pepper seasoning in every 653-gram bag to let consumers customize how much or little seasoning they want to use.
