After over a decade of amusement-park rides and animal fun, Tayto Crisps and the proprietors of Co. Meath's Tayto Park have announced a parting of ways in a joint statement today.

Snack superfans, families and fans of Irish pop-culture needn't worry, however, as the park's potato-based iconography will remain in place until next year.
