It's finally a month today 
Did you know...Industrial English biscuits packed in airtight tins that claimed to defy “time and climate” were a godsend for explorers. Robert Scott ordered special glucose-enriched biscuits from Huntley & Palmers for his ill-fated expedition to the south pole. Tins of these biscuits can still be seen on the shelves in Scott’s hut on Ross Island  |

Did you know...The small holes in bourbon biscuits are to prevent the biscuits from cracking or breaking during the baking process, by allowing steam to escape. Many other companies make their own version of the biscuit under the "Bourbon" name, including major supermarkets |

Did you know...Penguin biscuits were first created by Glasgow baker William Mcdonald - the name was chosen because the original version had dark chocolate and a cream filling, so the penguin was chosen to represent the black and white colour of the biscuit |

Did you know...Custard creams are often considered the "most dangerous biscuit" because of a study that found their crumbly texture and tendency to disintegrate when dunked in tea makes them highly likely to cause injuries like scalding from hot tea splashing while dunking, giving them the highest "risk rating" compared to other biscuits |

If everybody could bring their biscuits along I volunteer to safely dispose of them. Can take the low risk ones as well, just to be on the safe side.
Always happy to help

Did you know...Surprisingly or not, many people likely wouldn’t call the unassuming Garibaldi biscuit their favourite biscuit. These after often called by their somewhat unappealing nickname: “squashed-fly” biscuits, and have managed to stick around as a biscuit aisle staple for the last 150 years in Britain. The majority of Britons likely think a Garibaldi biscuit isn’t either great or terrible. They just sit in the middle, never anyone’s favourite |

Did you know...with the outbreak of war and the resulting shortage in supplies and rationing, meant that Rowntree’s had to re-work the Kit Kat recipe. In order not to confuse or mislead the buying public, in 1941 ‘Kit Kat Chocolate Crisp‘ wrappers turned navy blue so that consumers would know that the product they were eating was an edited war-time version – composed without fresh milk, less sugar and made with plain chocolate |
