Biscuit Of The Week

[image error]

One of my favourite biscuits is the Custard Cream but my spies tell me that all is not well with the confection. Tesco, my spies tell me, have not only made it smaller but have altered the recipe to reduce the amount of sugar and salt it contains. They claim that this is to make it healthier but to me that misses the point entirely. You eat a biscuit for a bit of comfort and indulgence – its health properties are the last thing on your mind.

What with Nestle dropping the walnut that sat proudly on top of its whip to make the product appeal to those of us who suffer from nut allergies and Toblerone increasing the gap between each of its triangular slabs of chocolate, life will soon not be worth living.
