I think she's made a bit of a foal of herself.

[Canardly]

Bit of horse hoarse trading going on.

Spare a thought too, for Saima, whose KitKat was wafer-free.
That takes the biscuit...

Grasping barstewards!

Grasping barstewards!

correct, and that's more polite than how I phrased it.

We used to get those sort of rejects from the Rowntrees factory shop (was supposed to be workers and retired staff only ) .
IMHO they were better than the real thing.

I suppose these stories are news now that the laundered lottery ticket has been in the news.   People have never stopped being opportunist greedy bastards, have they?

[geraldc]

I think the Kit Kat thing was probably a student jape that got picked up student papers and then picked up by the mainstream press. She's being made to look greedy, when the letter was lighthearted

[Jaded]

I've had a KitKat with no wafer in it.

Significantly better than the normal one.

I agree. KitKat chocolate is very nice for cheap chocolate.
Shame it's Nestlé.

Maybe they should pony up.

KitKat *was* very nice.  Then Nestle came and ruined the chocolate.  Then they inflicted plastic wrappers on us and they weren't even any good for fuses.

[hellymedic]

I still got paper-and-foil KitKats in my fridge...
Maybe the supermarket multi-packs aren't plastic.

Maybe my fridge stock is Sheddy.

FTFY.
 I  would recommend anyone who is interested in social history and women at work to read  "The Sweethearts" by Lynn Russell and Neil Hanson . Real life stories and memories from women who worked in Rowntree's York factory in it's heyday.

We had a good wheeze going during the autumn term of 1980 as the husband of one of the cleaners worked for Rowntrees while the father of my roommate worked for $RIVAL_SWEETIECO in Hull.  Regular exchanges ensued.

Oh yes ! My Gran was a shop steward at Rowntrees and when I was a kid nearly all the chocolate we had was "misshapes" and rejects in white bags or white boxes for After Eights.
I remember the amazing day when she gave us big bags of Cabannas that were rejects purely because the machine had gone wonky and made them too big to fit in the wrappers, oh the joy!
