"Shapes consumers are very passionate about the leftover flavouring in the bottom of the box," says brand manager Alice Johnson.
"We wanted to produce something special for the fans to make it easy for them to find creative uses for the much-loved flavouring."
The most popular suggested uses include sprinkling it on hot chips, in a schnitzel crumb, sprinkling it over roast vegetables and to spice up a hummus.
Only 8 per cent of Australians thought they might sprinkle it on ice cream. You know you're going to try that too.
