    MORE THAN 5,000,000 OF THESE BISCUITS MADE AND SOLD EVERY WEEK


    I don't think it'll take long for anyone to guess what the biscuit was - but can anyone remember when it used to read somewhat differently - and why it was changed?

    Correct Tony - but why was the wording changed?

    It used to read: MORE THAN 5,000,000 OF THESE BISCUITS EATEN EVERY WEEK, but when the Trades Description Act was introduced, the company couldn't prove the number of biscuits 'eaten' every week, so had to change the slogan to MADE AND SOLD EVERY WEEK
