Watch – Slim pickings! Man opens bag of Waitrose crisps containing just ONE crisp

A Waitrose customer was stunned when they opened a packet of own-brand “calorie control” crisps – and there was just ONE inside. A low calorie packet is one thing, but one crisp in the entire back is surely not right.

Helen Abbott, 47, had ordered her weekly shop through delivery service Ocado but thought the six-pack LoveLife chips felt a bit light.

The mum-of-two was so sick of receiving under-filled packets she asked her son, Sam, 21, to open it while she filmed on Wednesday (1/3).

This footage shows the barber shake the bag before breaking the seal, tipping the package upside down and pouring a lone crisp onto his hand.

The video has already been shared over 1,000 times after the family from Hucknall, Notts., uploaded it on Wednesday night.

Helen said: “We never expected there to be only one crisp inside,and we never expected it to go viral, but we thought it was absolutely hilarious.

“Nothing like this has ever happened to us before but It hasn’t put me off buying the product again.”

Waitrose replied: “We’re just as baffled as to why there was only a lonely crisp in the bag.

“We’re sorry for the disappointment and will be looking into what happened to the crisp’s friends to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

“We’d welcome the customer getting in touch so we can make things right.”
