AIBU to set up just giving thing for man in digestive horror?

[Goldenbug]

Full Story (Portsmouth News site.)

This poor man was the tragic victim of finding an ordinary digestive biscuit in a packet of chocolate digestives. Will he be able to receive counselling on the NHS or should we set up a Just Giving page for donations to help him over it?

Has this happened to anyone else? If so, how did you manage to rebuild your life afterwards?

blackamericano LOL at your brain exploding ( In the nicest possible way obv!)

Some of these stories are heartbreaking.

Imagine if you found a chocolate biscuit in a plain packet. How happy you would be.

Who even buys plain digestives? Apart from my dad!

Tbh, he just has to suck it up. Anyone who buys milk chocolate digestives can't expect any sympathy. Now if it had happened in a dark chocolate pack...

The only reason to buy plain digestives is to put them in a sandwich bag and beat them to a pulp with a rolling pin for a cheese cake base. A chocolate one in there could be catastrophic.

I used to buy plain digestives when I was a student. Two dipped in a mug of tea was my breakfast

We once got a tin of beans in tomato sauce with only one bean. That was a sad meal.
I love sadface photos in local papers - this one was a gem.

I sometimes buy plain digestives - it's a kind of hair shirt thing - a sort of penance for wanting biscuits, so I buy horrible ones.
Then I get them home and I'm stuck with them. The only way to make them edible is to put butter and a huge chunk of cheese on the top, otherwise they are so dry and dusty they suck all the moisture out of your body and you dehydrate to death.

@SparklingBrook have you never spread philadelphia cream cheese on a digestive? They’re simply heavenly.

OMG OMG OMG it just happened to me. Seriously! Photographic proof attached —because the actual proof is in my tummy—.

Send me you good wishes and replacements.

I once had a waferless KitKat and complained to the manufacturer.

The manufacturer sent me a heartfelt letter of apology and an explanation of how this “problem” occurred. I can’t quite remember, but it was something to do with their manufacturing lines and seemingly unavoidable.

They also sent me a voucher to get three free KitKats. I call that a result! And yes I know, I do need to get a life,

I grew up in a family of five. My parents bought a packet of jam doughnuts with five in. My 4yo littlest sister got one without any jam and was MOST PUT OUT.

She wrote a very serious complaint to Mr Tesco in crayon which my mum posted for her. She got a voucher for a free pack of doughnuts of which she took a bite out of each just to make sure they were sufficiently jammed.

Also I once had a kitkat chunky without any wafer. Best day ever despite nearly breaking my teeth.

The chocolateless digestive story was a piss-take written by someone who's part of Angry People In Local Newspapers, a facebook group that takes the piss out of, well, angry people in local newspapers. He sent a press release to several local papers to see if one of them bit, which they did.

(I've had a waferless kitkat, it makes you realise what disgusting chocolate they use in kitkats.)

How harrowing!

I once found a wedge-sized clump of solid seasoning in my McCain wedges pack. Complained. Got about 6 x my money back in vouchers. With a letter about the very strict QC standards in the factories and its workers having to wear hair nets and "beard snoods".

Cor, i’ll ave is biskit !!!!

Are we sure he is not a scam artist hiding the chocolatey side away from the camera. or perhaps he licked it all off. think he looks GUILTY!

Sunny I only have tubes of Primula in the fridge would that work? I have some Rich Tea fingers somewhere but no digestives though.

Plain digestive, Philadelphia or fresh goats cheese if you want to be extra fancy and some nice jam on top. Deconstructed cheesecake.

I will support this poor man! #donate

What I would give for a waterless Kitkat though, living the dream there.

My DH, at the tender age of 15, did Work experience in Asda. One day they put him in the bakery and the guy put him on the donut machine, told him to eat as many as he could, obviously he obliged. He also told me he tested the jammer, putting as much jam as he could in (apparently it’s foot pedal operated!), and jammed one so much it exploded. He also put 6 donuts instead of 5 in many bags to ‘make peoples’ day’. To this day he maintains it was the happiest day of his life.

I like a plain digestive. Rich tea however...just why? They don’t even dunk properly #missingthepoint

Sparkling hmm primula and rich tea sounds weird but give it a go and report back. If it’s evil tasting, I expect a sad face!

Cheese and Chive Primula on a Rich Tea. it's a no from me.
