Title: Wagon Wheels!
Post by: crossy on October 08, 2013, 03:06:33 PM
Just bought a "Wagon Wheel" biscuit......first time in years! Is it me or have these got much smaller over the years? Seem to remember as a kid that they were the size of dustbin lids!  :D

Oh and for the younger generation dustbins were what we had before wheelie bins! LOL

Wagon Wheels are a treat for me (Wagon Wheels)
They’re the biggest biscuit
You ever did see (Wagon Wheels),
Marshmallow filled, they taste so grand,
A biscuit filled to beat the band.

Phills, they are indeed a treat,
marshmallow filled, they're hard to beat!
But their size these days seem not so grand,
when as a child they filled all my hand.
Alas these days they seem so much smaller,
or is it just that I've got taller?

 :D

Wagon wheels officially say that they've not got smaller over the years, we've just got bigger.
Same with club and penguins.
What about Jublies?

Tactical marketing I think, brainwashing us all to think their biscuits haven't got smaller !!!! Smaller biscuits = bigger profits I think  :) Penquins and Jublies, I'd forgotten about them!
