Darren Grivvell, director of brands said: "Our insight showed that many consumers, particularly women and children, want less bread with their burger with a significant proportion actually removing the top of the bun. Our new Burger Thins look set to meet this demand for a lighter, softer eat with their burger."

Kingsmill Burger Thins will be available in Soft White in packs of six at an RSP of GBP1.29 (US$1.96).
