If anything, this only confuses me more - when McVities official statement is that the biscuit side is the bottom, surely "okay, that's the bottom, but I'll choose to turn it upside down and eat it with the chocolate on top" makes sense, but believing that the chocolate is the top and eating it with the chocolate on the bottom...in what sense is the chocolate the top at all in that arrangement?

Guest Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Yeah, I think we can write the burger thing off as "weird preference" rather than "culinary sin." I only hope the police are as forgiving when they're inevitably notified of this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BomberPat Posted February 9, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 9, 2018 Oh come on, so eating a burger folded up in your mitts - independently of the bread provided - and just eating the top half of a bread bun on its own, is less of an issue than biscuit orientation? Mental, that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted February 9, 2018 Moderators Share Posted February 9, 2018 McVities are full of shit. Their statement is pure brand protection nonsense. Obviously they're going to say the side with their name on it is the top. They've got vested interests and can't be trusted. Why are they chocolate side face up when you open the packet if that's the bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted February 9, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 9, 2018 I really don't care which way you eat your biscuits (chocolate side up, btw), or the manner in which you go through a Big Mac (normally), or how milky you like you tea (very little). I've had cereal both normal and microwaved and enjoy both. People eat different foods in different ways, it's fine. Microwaving bread, however? Surely that's an indication of mental illness.

Paid Members FLips Posted February 9, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 9, 2018 My Nana used to burn toast until it was inedibly black, leave it to go cold, butter it and then eat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't! And now you've made me try and find a fucking unboxing video of a packet of biscuits on Youtube, which is going to make me look like a proper mental if anyone at work checks my browser history, and has already done untold damage to my YouTube recommendations.

No other burger, only Big Macs. top bun first, then burger folded with sauce and onion, then middle bun with remaining sauce, then bottom bun with burger and cheese on top, like one of those sandwiches at a buffet where it's just the filling on one bit of bread. "@FBI @metpoliceuk @cia This fucking monster needs stopping" Also, can confirm that Morrisons own brand chocolate digestives open up in the packet chocolate on the bottom, despite the packaging showing the biscuits chocolate on top. THIS IS DOING MY HEAD IN!!! THERE IS FUCKING WRITING ON THE TOP OF THE BISCUIT, WHY WOULD ANYONE THINK THE CHOCOLATE IS THE TOP!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two ends of that packet are exactly the same - that video proves nothing! You could open either end. However, if you buy the ones in a standing can with a lid on only one end, they are chocolate side up (I think. I'm not actually sure, but I've committed to this line of argument now). Every promotional picture or video I can find shows them chocolate side up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BomberPat Posted February 9, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted February 9, 2018 The ends of packets aren't the same, the text is read from left-to-right, so the left-hand side is the top, obviously. Unless you're one of them who opens crisp packets at the bottom like you're a bloody maverick too. And I'm not going looking for another video of biscuits to check how a can of biscuits opens. Just not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey_Piste Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 For a start those are HobNobs not Digestives. He also doesn't use the tearaway bit on the packet and opens up the end. Thirdly he spends 3 minutes prattling on about the fucking wrapper before opening them. I would have demolished that entire packet in that time.

Mr_Danger Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I accept that the chocolate is the bottom side, however stupid that is. But obviously they're meant to be eaten upside down, like pies...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
