We once got a mm with mini franks in blanks in one of those plastic containers with the red covers that say MEAT. There was also a cute little ketchup and mustard in glass jars. Don't remember what else it came with.

If you're putting in 2 types of chips already, why not try to find honey mustard chips as well?

French fries are sometimes served in cone-shaped wax paper holders that, if done right, can look very chic. I would google image it!!

I'd probably goes with a "fries and coke with that?" idea.
The french fry chips, a mini glass bottle of Heinz ketchup, and a glass antique looking bottle of coke.
You can stand them up on a mini tray and cellphane wrap.

Or you can try to find red and white french fry holders.

I once got a shalach manos that had fries but they weren't real fries they were actually sugar cookies in the shape of crinkle fries. She put them in a fries bag holder and they looked so much like real fries. Only after we opened the shalach manos did we see they were actually cookies.

I put something like these into the french fry cups

How about making mini pizzas? Either you can have them baked already or you can give them frozen with baking instructions (so they don't go to waste if not eaten that day)

I would put them into a box (happy meal type) with fries/chips, a can of coke, ketchup, mustard, and a cutlery bag. Maybe even add a small toy.
