The appearance of potato wedges among this year's Roll Up the Rim prizes is creating a kerfuffle, with winners expressing a range of happiness, confusion and disgust.

The Tim Horton's contest kicked off at the beginning of February, with the coffee chain saying they'll give away 49 million coffee and food prizes by the time it wraps up in mid-March.

Of those prizes, 10 per cent – or nearly 5 million – will be potato wedges.

The baffled

The first step in wedge acceptance is knowing that they exist.
