My OH has been thinking again... a very bad habit I will have to put a stop to, but he has come up with a question and has been moaning on about it all afternoon.





So whats happened to broken biscuits?

Woolworths used to sell broken biscuits by the pound.

I know theres no woolworths anymore but there still must be broken biscuits so what happens to them nowdays?

If anyone knows please please let me know OH will drive me nuts until he finds out.

Yep I remember buying bags of broken biscuits. Maybe bakeries still do

They cant be recycled can they ?

I well remember them, but they go to homeless shelters now.:-4

Woolworths Sees Rebirth Online - WSJ.com

I still see them in cheap shops, Home Bargains etc they sell them in big boxes.

Ok yes I'm american and will ask a stupid question. Why can't you eat broken biscuits?? It is still a biscuit is it not, kind of like a broken cookie does being broken make it any less of a biscuit and it becomes unuseable?

Why not make your own broken biccies?

Just how did the biscuits get broken?

I see broken up cookies in ice cream and pudding.

I see broken up biscuits in bread pudding.



Again, I ask................how did the biscuits get broken?

Farmfoods sell boxes of broken biscuits.

Along for the ride - They get jammed up in the conveyer belt in factories.

Different nowadays, biscuits are brought up to be tough and strong, no longer do they stand for the victimisation of days gone by. No longer in loose packaging, smashing in to each other in brown paper bags.

They have come a long way, tight ranks, strong packaging, oh yes the days of the broken downtrodden biscuit have long gone indeed, long live the Hob Nob.

I had a very nasty encounter with a hob nob once. I was so traumatised i haven't been able to look at one since.
