Ashley Young has quite the weird habit when it comes to eating chips

OK, what?

How do you eat your chips?

If you’ve answered that question by saying “I just eat my chips,” then well done, you’re one of the normal people.

If, by chance, you’ve answered it by saying “I have to eat them in pairs, and each pair of chips has to have both chips of them same length,” then well done, you’re just like Manchester United star Ashley Young.

We agree that one’s chip-eating habit is not exactly the most pressing piece of news that you’re ever going to read and, to preempt your trolling, yes. It has been a slow news day.

But, where were we? Oh yeah. Ashley Young eats chips weirdly.

The England international has admitted to quite the peculiar method of consuming everybody’s favourite form of potato.

“I don’t know if I can say this but – oh well. If I’ve gone to get a takeaway and I get chips,” Young started, when speaking to Fuel.

“I like to match up the chips in length. That is actually quite weird.

“You go through the chips and I pick them out in twos, that’s a weird thing as well.

“But if they’re not the same length then I go hunting for the same length chips.”

To be fair, it’s not Young’s only odd eating habit.

The man has eaten bird shit before, lest we forget.
