A bricklayer reckons he discovered one of the world’s longest chips – in a frozen bag.

Nathan Hadley, 25, found the ‘beast’ of a chip in a frozen McCain bag earlier this month and immediately measured it.

Nathan, of Dudley, West Midlands, discovered the massive potato snack was 8.66 inches long – and a similar discovery was made by a nine year old just days before Nathan’s.

Archie Davies found a nine-inch chip on his dinner plate on January 19, meaning Nathan didn’t quite grab the title for longest frozen chip.

But Nathan is still chuffed: ‘I found it in a bag of frozen chips – I was amazed by the size of it and absolutely gobsmacked.

‘I looked at it and laughed, and just thought straight away – I’ve got to get the tape measure out, it’s a beast. I still have it – and will definitely be keeping it.’

Nathan said he considered sending the chip to Guinness World Records, but the company said they don’t monitor ‘large food items’.
