Let the chips fall where they may.

A looming shortage of onions and potatoes could strike British diners right where they’d feel it most: their stomachs.

“Could this be the end of cheese and onion crisps?” ponders the Sunday Times of London on the potato-chip problem.

And while Britain is fixated on the ongoing record heat wave, many farmers attribute their problems to the effects of bad weather earlier this year.

“In March when we should have been planting, we had sub-zero temperatures and snow,” said onion grower Tim Elcombe. “We should have had warm showers in April; instead we got a deluge of bitterly cold rain. Crops either didn’t get planted or didn’t grow well.”
