Britain a nation of overthinkers as a quarter obsess over locking the front door
Almost three-quarters of people (70 per cent) admit to pondering more than they should, while 55 per cent admit to dwelling on their finances and 12 per cent worry about messages getting left unread Brooding Brits are a nation of overthinkers with a quarter of us obsessing over whether we've locked our front door. Almost three-quarters of people (70 per cent) admit to pondering more than they should, with a quarter (24 per cent) agonising over whether they left the door open. A more financially-minded 55 per cent admit to dwelling on their financial stability more than they'd like, while 12 per cent worry about their messages getting left unread. Other topics living rent-free in people's heads are pets, football, and TikTok drama among others. Brits also spend almost 30 minutes each day thinking about their next meal, according to the research by McCain to mark the launch of their new snack Vibes. To add to life's dilemmas, McCain has been challenging the public at London's Battersea Power Station to decide whether Vibes has the crunch of a crisp or the allure of a chip. A playful reimagining of Rodin's iconic statue The Thinker was unveiled last week (May 28) by TV personality and self-confessed overthinker Vicky Pattison. To make the fun artwork truly immersive, the public sampled the new snack for themselves while recreating the legendary pose on a second plinth. As Vicky found out for herself, it was a challenge. 'I was like 'what is this chip/crisp thingy?' It's hot, it's crispy, it's totally moreish,' she said. 'I was lost for words, which never happens.'

Quarter of Brits admit obsessing over whether they've locked front door
Brooding Brits are a nation of overthinkers - with a quarter obsessing over whether they've locked their front door. Almost three-quarters of people (70%) admit to overthinking more than they should, with a quarter (24%) pondering whether they've definitely locked their front door or not. A more financially-minded 55% admit to dwelling on their financial stability more than they'd like, while 12% worry about their messages getting left on read. Others were thinking with their tummy, as research commissioned by McCain revealed that Brits spend almost 30 minutes each day thinking about their next meal. When it comes to Brits' other 'Roman Empires', topics living rent-free in people's heads are pets, football, TikTok drama and the actual Roman Empire. Amid life's dilemmas, sometimes it's the smaller questions like 'what is this snack?' that provides a tasty, much-needed distraction. McCain Vibes is the latest innovation from the brand - a bold, flavour-packed snack that's got everyone scratching their heads as it has the crunch of a crisp and the heartiness of a chip. An installation was unveiled in London on May 28th, launched by TV personality and self-confessed overthinker Vicky Pattison. The playful reimagining of Rodin's iconic 'The Thinker' statue is deep in contemplation about one of life's most delicious questions: 'is McCain's new hot snack Vibes a chip or a crisp?' The statue, dubbed 'The Thinker Pondering Vibes', popped up on May 28th and 29th at Battersea Power Station in London. There, visitors sampled the new chip/crisp snack for themselves while recreating the legendary pose on a second plinth. Launching the installation was TV personality and self-confessed overthinker Vicky Pattison. Reflecting on The Thinker's ultimate dilemma, Vicky said: "I honestly didn't know what to expect with McCain Vibes. "I took a bite and was like, 'what is this chip/crisp thingy?'. It's hot, it's crispy, it's totally moreish. I was lost for words, which never happens. "You must try them to get it - trust me, they're a total snack gamechanger." Vibes are available in select retailers now and have an RRP of £3 for a 350g bag.
