Log it in Doydum and a row of aubergines sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Thin slices of potato fried until crisp and seasoned with salt or flavourings, sold in bags of every size. They are a classic snack for film nights, football matches and long road trips.

Sharing bags hold several of these portions, so the bag's weight tells you how much you had.
