Risky Biscuits


Be careful next time you have a cup of tea and a biccie, according to a recent survey 50% of British people have been injured in a biscuit-related accident at one time or other. These range from burning their fingers trying to retrieve soggy bits of Digestive fallen into a mug of hot tea, dropping biscuit tins on their feet, to somehow poking themselves in the eye with a biscuit. The severity of that last one probably depends on what sort of biscuit it was, a Garibaldi has some sharp edges which could be nasty while a Jammie Dodger would probably only cause mild bruising at worst.

Surprisingly, the most lethal biscuit of them all is the innocent-looking Custard Cream which tops the danger chart with a “Biscuit Injury Threat Evaluation” score of 5.63. Personally I always thought there was something sinister about Happy Faces and I’ve never entirely trusted Fig Rolls which are really little cakes deviously pretending to be biscuits for some shifty reason.

  3. An interesting discussion is price comment. I feel that it’s best to write extra on this matter, it might not be a taboo topic however generally individuals are not sufficient to speak on such topics. To the next. Cheers

  4. I spent nearly 5 hours trying to locate an update for my new HP server which included a call to HP support, but still failed to update it correctly. With your solutions here, problem was solved less than an hour. Nice stuff!
