Andy Capp's is an American brand of flavored corn and potato snack made to look like French fries. The product was created in 1971 by Goodmark Foods, Inc., which licensed the name and likeness of the comic strip character Andy Capp from Creators Syndicate. Until recent years the strip was featured on the back of packages. In 1998 Goodmark Foods was acquired by ConAgra Foods, which manufactures and distributes the product to this day. The BBQ Fries, after being discontinued, resurfaced in 2011 in a new bag design made to match the current Hot Fries flavors.
