Dear McVities,<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 My eyes haven\u2019t been off the packet since I went to the shops. I have been lustfully staring at them with the intent to tear it apart and eat everything inside. Don\u2019t think of me as a glutton, I\u2019m not usually, but when I saw the Go Ahead Crispy Slices I couldn\u2019t resist.<\/p>\n
I like everything about them; they way they look on the packet, the scent of them as you bring them up to your nose, and then the rolling taste, the rolling taste of red cherry. I even like the massive pictures of cherries in the background on the front of the packet too. I assume that this is a close-up of cherries and not some massive cherries that you, McVities, have managed to grow. I know that British weather is a tad unpredictable but I\u2019ve never known it to facilitate the growth of gigantic fruit. Do we even grow cherries in this country? I\u2019ll have to find that out later once I\u2019ve finished stuffing my face.<\/p>\n
I went through a similar phase when I discovered the Yoghurt Breaks. I remember buying at least ten boxes of the strawberry flavour and piling them up top of the fridge in the kitchen. It was such a wonderful sight I didn\u2019t want to disrupt it however I succumbed to temptation and went through them in less than a week.<\/p>\n
I want to know how you do it. How does a multi-national (I assume?) company such as yourself manage to create something as satisfying yet low in all the bad stuff? Are you keeping things from us all? Are you lying to me, McVities? I don\u2019t think you are\u2026 yet. I have no scientific equipment of my own to confirm either way. I want to believe you McVities, that every time I put a Crispy Slice into my mouth that I\u2019m better than them people troughing on crisps and those massive massive bars of chocolate. Double Galaxy in your face, no thanks. If I\u2019m being honest even if it did come out that Crispy Slices were weighing us down with all the calories I wouldn\u2019t mind. They\u2019re too good.<\/p>\n
I thought you should know\u2026<\/p>\n
Many thanks<\/p>\n
