Smiles are a basically shaped mashed potato with a crispy outer coating and are shaped into smiley faces. I remember enjoying these as a child ...  Read the complete review

McCain's Smiles - lovely alternative to chippy chips in my personal opinion and I don't think you have to be a kid to either eat or enjoy these great potato treats. My nephew calls them Smiley Faces (he's only 3) and they are probably the thing he'd eat every day if his mother let him. They can be bought from most large ...  Read the complete review

In the run up to Christmas my partner and I have set ourselves a bit of a challenge to spend as little as psychically possible on our weekly food shop in a bid to save some money towards the big Christmas shop. In order to achieve this, we've had to sacrifice home cooking from scratch, and we've been stocking up on all sorts of frozen ...  Read the complete review

My son visited his friends house recently for tea and was served with McCain 'Smiles', so of course I was sent off to the supermarket to buy some for him when he returned.

Having just done a review of Asda potato waffles, I thought I ought to add a review of McCain Smiles, as these two products are used at the same time in our house. These are a great little product to have in the freezer for those evenings when you just don't want to cook. Now, those who have read some of my other reviews will ...  Read the complete review

Smiley Faces are something that I always remember eating when I was little so I love to pick up a pack occasionally now just to make myself feel like a child again.

All parents like to feel they are giving their children good food to eat but sometimes there is just not the time to spend hours preparing and cooking fresh food. I think most parents will admit to giving their child convenience food from time to time, and I am one of those parents. McCain Smiles are a fantastic convenience ...  Read the complete review

McCain smiles are a kind of guilty pleasure for me. I used to have these with different things as meals all of the time when I was little and to be honest I have never really grown out of them, although I don't have them that often now, I will still buy them and I do still really enjoy them. I think a reason why I like them so ...  Read the complete review

I love anything made of potato and have always loved these Smiley Faces that McCain make. You buy them in a bag for about £1.00 and a bag has got about 30 little potato faces in there, but if I'm wrong don't shoot me because I've got better things to do with my time than count them! To me they taste just like potato waffles ...  Read the complete review

My twin boys who are 22 months old are really starting to take notice of absolutey everything now including what they eat. They are reasonably good with what they eat and will even sit and eat their broccoli but they love their 'tippys', in our lingo that's Chippys. Now I don't mind them eating potato but I don't want to keep filling ...  Read the complete review

These are known as Smiley Faces in our house - it took me a while to find them on dooyoo, until I stopped to read the packet! ** What you get ** Round potato faces, with holes for the eyes and a smile hole too. There is some consternation over the lack of a nose, here. The outside is chip-coloured and satsifyingly crispy, ...  Read the complete review

You can find these in the frozen potato section of any large supermarket, in a lovely bright red bag with a distinctive McCain logo on the front .

Despite my age, there is something about potato smiles, or any novelty potato product for that matter, that still seems to grab my attention when walking down the shopping aisles. However now there isn't my mum holding my hand to say, "no darling, not today". I have therefore gone crazy on this sort of thing, and will rarely ...  Read the complete review
