Beach-goers saw a strange sight this week. A beach was covered in French fries. They fell off of ships because of bad weather. Bags of chips reached a beach in England. A local man said: "From a distance, it looked like the golden sand of a Caribbean beach." He said the chips were 75 cm deep in some places.
Volunteers are now cleaning the beach. The chips are a danger to the environment. Seals live near the beach. If the seals see the chips, they might try to eat them. A local official warned people to be careful. She said any food on the beach might be harmful. She asked people to report any food they see on the beach.
