[quote]Two cargo planes full of biscuits were flown into South Yorkshire in the past two weeks in response to a biscuit shortage in the UK.
The shortage was caused by flooding in Cumbria forcing United Biscuits – who manufacture products under McVitie’s, Jacob’s and Crawford’s – to close its Carlisle factory.
The factory closed on 5 December due to damage to electrical equipment and ovens. [/quote]
The most -blam!-ing British thing I've ever seen in the news. Good thing they averted riots of grannys with that shipment.

Soaking them in gin usually keeps them under control. Besides, there is always custard creams and Oreos.
