'Penguin' biscuits. Does anyone else find that those with purple wrappers always taste better than those with other coloured wrappers?

Has anyone else found this to be te case? Or is it in my imagination?
Could there be some kind of subliminal colour psychology happening here?
Or are purple wrappers a different flavour?

pointydog · 27/02/2009 17:46

Purple penguins are the only ones worth eating. Although why anyone would when you could have a jaffa cake instead i've no idea

Mmmm... purple penguins.

I used to think that orange smarties tasted of oranges but was told I was imagining it.

I then found out it was true!

Jaffa cakes - ugg - dry and horrible.

I used to think green wrapped penguins tasted of mint. I don't think they did though I had a very vivid imagination.

I still always go for those as a preference.

Not tasted the purple ones (dd's favorite colour) Will nick one and try.

I think there's something about the colour purple and chocolate which has good vibes. All those childhood bars of Cadbury's!
