Mashtags, Birds Eye’s latest addition to the family dinner table, are potato shapes in the form of symbols popular on social media channels – so you can now scoff down on a hashtag, at sign or smiley.

The Mashtags packaging emphasises the social media slant on frozen food, describing the product as “#NEW #Tasty Pot@to Shapes”.

As well as #, @ and the loveable smiley, the edible symbols also include asterisks and lovehearts.

“The addition of Mashtags to our food range is an exciting development for Birds Eye,” said the company’s senior brand manager Pete Johnson. “Social media is all about conversation and we’re confident Mashtags will resonate across various groups of people.”


How has it come to this?


Fake Edit: While searching for the mashtags image I found out that those piss peddlers at Brewdog were also in the mashtag business. This doesn't surprise me.

I saw these today and they are amazing.

Potato smilies are the tastiest gooseberry fool.

Not what I would call a fad. They serve a functional purpose on twitter if used with half a brain.

Now we simply wait for someone to combine these with alphabet shapes to create the inevitable joke account. I can't wait to see Stephen Fry's tweets filtered through potato by someone desperate for attention.

Twitter is just Facebook for pseudo intelligent wankers.
