"SAY WHAT?!
You can take the middle bits from my Toblerones. You can make my Creme Egg oacks of five rather than six.
But when you shrink my digestives? There’s going to be hell to pay!"
Fucking right too !! Someone's on my side lol  |

Are you sure that after a study they decided to shrink the biscuit so you don’t have to dip the edge and bite the side off before full dunking capacity can be achieved.
Have they increased the capacity of the pack? |

"Have you seen the size of the chocolate bars these days ? Snicker s and Mars bars especially  "
I'm going against the grain here, but I like 'em smaller, having diabetes means I have to be careful with what I eat, last check-up was spot on with all accounts so have to say this has helped me. |

I can understand that but what gets my goat is being treated like an idiot by both manufacturers and retailers who come out with twaddle along the lines of 'helping customers to make healthier food choices whilst still being able to enjoy their favourite treat' etc., etc when the truth of the matter is they don't give a damn about your health and just want to maintain their profits in the face of various rising costs by passing those on to the consumer in the form of reduced sizes and we're somehow not supposed to notice. As an adult, I resent being told how I should eat as I'm big enough to decide that for myself - not that that's their motivation for shrinkflation anyway, so that sort of talk is doubly annoying. |

"They still taste nice I'm sure once dunked"
Mmmm yes, it's much nicer when they are warm and wet! I like to start off nice and slow, but once I've started I get into a bit of a rhythm and next thing you know I've finished.
Then I clean up any mess I've made, (which sometimes means I have to lick my fingers) and look forward to the next time!
Mmm just typing this has put me in the mood for some...biscuits!
Anyone fancy a session of hobnobbin?  |

Get that too, its just nobody likes to leave a half open snickers or whatever, the point you've made is of course perfectly valid though. |

I blame Brexit. Seems that's what everyone else does these days.
Another one.... you want to see the size (lack of) of the tubs of Heros, Quality Street and Roses this year. Soon the tubs won't be big enough to fit even the smaller Digestive in!!  |
