The food focused page delighted Iceland shoppers after sharing a photo of the retailer's new 'Salt & Pepper Crunchies'. The savoury snack, which is currently sold out online, features hash brown tater tots created with shredded potato, blended with green peppers, red peppers and onions. It also includes a salt and pepper seasoning sachet.

Captioning an image of the coveted product, @newfoodsuk penned: "New Salt & Pepper Crunchies at Iceland! We just noticed these online at Iceland, but not in stock as of yet, guessing they will be out soon!"

The tots proved popular on the hit social media platform, with the image racking up more than 1,400 likes in just a matter of hours. Shoppers shared their thoughts in the comments section.
