To think a kitkat without wafer is actually rather a treat?

[User543212345]

And not a "loss of monetary and emotional significance"?

And definitely not something to run to the papers/write a ludicrous complaint about? Link

I had one without wafer in my lunchbox about 25 years ago. I still remember how delighted I was

Ginger I thought I was the only one!

I ALWAYS complain about duff foodstuffs - I don't make anything up but I paid for something and will tweet or email if it's substandard - malt loaf that had a massive air bubble so was mostly air, salad dressing that leaked all over my food, a wine carrier that collapsed halfway to the house losing me three bottles of wine - got vouchers and apologies for all of them. You don't have to be arsey - I go for a light-hearted, jokey tone rather than a sadface style - but it's not OK for stuff to be crap and decent manufacturers do actually care.

Needs Now that sounds fantastic.

They should send her a truck load of solid chocolate kit-kats. Or a £2 voucher. Their choice.

I always hope for a wafer free kit kat, it's not the same as a plain chocolate bar.

Life time supply?! Utter greed!

Given that this event has not been repeated ever nor has anybody else declared such an event in half wondering if my dad had something to do with it

Wow the tube of orange smarties sounds heavenly! I have also been excited as a child having a no-wafer Kitkat surprise.

I remember as kids in the 80's we loved it when we got breakaways with no biscuit in them. We had a few kit Kat's as well

Ring donuts taste different to jam donuts minus the jam.

Shall we have a whip round and send her a packet of wafers?

Thing is she makes herself look like a twat.

If you were the partner in a law firm and were thinking of giving her a job and you googled her would you employ her after reading this? Or would you think she sounds like a potential nightmare employee? I would guess the latter.

Ive had one of this kitkats without wafers years ago and enjoyed it. Perfect shape to suck. I still look out for another one. One day ill be as lucky as that woman again. Cant understand why anyone would sue over such a silly thing. Shes got nothing else to worry about if this causes emotional stress.

She is right to bring it to their attention and even to want her money back for the packet she bought. But a lifetime supply?! Greedy!!

Thing is she makes herself look like a twat

Exactly this, and your point about her making herself potentially less employable, Simon

I don't think bringing it to Nestle's attention is wrong either, but surely you'd send an email saying I bought these on whatever date and there was no wafer in any of them and expect a bland customer service response of "sorry...failure of our rigorous quality control...have a voucher". Expecting her letter to go higher than that (the DM said she expected a response from the CEO like they don't have better things to do) and will take legal action if she doesn't get her lifetime supply is totally over the top.

Why do people eat kitkats when caramel wafers are widely available?

When I was a kid there was a rumour in school that if you got a solid chocolate kitkat then you should send it back to the manufacturer and they would send you a box of kitkats for free as it was some kind of competition thing

What a fucking lunatic.

unlucky83 similar thing happened to me except it was a wispa. Like a brick of chocolate it was.

When I used to eat kitkats, a whole chocolate one was the holy grail of kitkat eating.

Ungrateful mare.

I live in a Nestle factory town, my friends DH works there - in the 'rejects' shop for the staff he could buy big bags of duff kitkats (no wafers), they were always very popular.

(wonders if he can still get some)....

I agree it's a surprise treat, but I'd definitely complain (nicely and after I'd eaten it). As then they might send me another KitKat! and everyone knows there aren't any calories in free food!

We once had a packet of Penguins that only had half the cream inside (looked like the squirty machine had aimed wrong!)

We didn't go to the papers or demand anything, DH just sent the packet back and they sent a £5 voucher for McVities products :o so we stocked up for our upcoming holiday.

That was when they did those little pots of the penguin 'elements' - tiny balls of biscuit and chocolate. AMAZING. Can't believe they were so shortlived :(

I would actually cry with happiness if I got a tube of orange smarties! I also really liked when they did a limited edition alien smartie. It was blue inside I think and tasted like pineapple. Good times.

It's ridiculous! I love it when I get something like that. I once complained when I got a wispa with its end missing and a bit of metal sticking out, I was so pleased when they sent me a free one, with hindsight, that should've been reported- it was really dangerous!

Then when they stopped selling them though, I blamed myself! Lol

Hahaha yes people really don't think about how the internet affects their employability. Imagine her prospective employer googling her, expecting to find out whether her Facebook profile has sufficient privacy... and instead finding a DMesque SadFace article :o
