Quality?

well, i suppose it doesn't quantify anything.... so, i will: POOR QUALITY!

poor quality should be the name of that street of confection.

for christmas i bought the obligatory tin of (sub) quality street, not realising that they are such a rip-off and that nestle is blatantly sticking two fingers up at the great british public for allowing such sub-standard confection to make our mothers fat over the festive period.

i was in a sainsbury's garage recently and noticed "the purple one" on sale as an individual item. why? why are they calling the hazelnut caramel "the purple one"? i'm guessing it's because it is so popular that they give it a nick-name now. so popular, that nestle, in their infinite wisdom, decide to put only 6 of the little beggars in a whole tin. the tin was not a cheap buy, yet i find myself, post christmas, with a tin FULL of cherry creams and orange creams that even oliver turned his nose up at!

gone is the nougat (green wrapper). even "the purple one" has but a hazel nut where once a majestic brazil nut stood (the damn thing is even still shaped like a brazil nut - are we such fools? it appears nestle believe it so).

so what gives guys? are we going to stand for 6 caramel creams and only 4 (i kid you not!), FOUR! noisette triangles!? (and dare i mention there be only 1 toffee penny - what's wrong with these people!)

i say lets stand together, let us stand up to those blaggards at nestle, stand up for equality, choc-equality. they must put an equal number of each flavour, in every tin. stop taking the british public for mugs.

you will only push us so far!
