Arnott's Has Released Chicken Parma Flavoured Shapes

Arnott's Shapes are a revered delicacy in Australia that are enjoyed by the masses across the country.

There have been some staple flavours that have lasted for years and there have been some dubious additions that have divided opinion.

I think we can all agree that their latest creation is undeniably brilliant.

Introducing to you: Chicken Parma Shapes.

The only thing that will be divisive about this is the spelling of parma.

Depending on where you live, it's either called parma (in Victoria) and parmi (in New South Wales), with other states and territories adopting either one.

Regardless of that small issue, these Shapes will hopefully be a delicious addition to the supermarket aisles when they're fully released.

Very little information has been unveiled to the public, however Channel 9's Today programme has featured a picture of them, meaning they must be real.

They seem a hell of a lot more real than the trick Arnott's tried to play last week.

The Australian company teased releasing a line of fragrances that smelled just like your favourite Shapes flavours.

"Carefully bottled to capture the essence each crunch brings to you, we guarantee there is no substitute for the love you'll both share with #ShapesPerfume," the company wrote on Instagram

People couldn't believe their eyes and loved the sound and potential smell of a Shapes perfume, with one person saying: "God I hope this is real."

Another added: "Where can i buy this???"

Everyone has a favourite, whether it's Pizza, Cheese & Bacon, Chicken Crimpy. But imagine if you could actually smell like these delicious little nuggets of joy. You'd have to fill up a bathtub with Shapes and roll around in them, but that would cause an almighty mess.

A spokesperson for Arnott's told Daily Mail Australia: "Arnott's Shapes has always been known for its 'Flavour You Can See'.

"We wanted to have a bit of fun and tease the concept of 'Flavour You Can Smell' - similar to when you open a box of Shapes - to see what reaction Aussies would have to wearing the scents of our most delicious Shapes flavours."

But surely if they've seen the epic response to the tease post they might consider it.
