Tales From the Biscuit Tin - No. 5 in series.... The Empire Strikes Back

A frightening tale from the biscuit tin this week which tells the story of when the biscuit bites back!

It seemed the the destruction of the empire biscuit community was imminent as one hungry office worker systematically chomped her way through no less than 5 empire biscuits a week over a period of months. This scoffing spree devasted the Empire biscuit population and created a growing resentment amongst those biscuits who had so far survived her ravenous rampage.

This resentment exploded in violence last week when the empire biscuit that our hungry villain had her eye on literally bit back and devoured it's adversary with an appetite in two bites.

Her colleagues later commented "She had a sweet tooth and she just couldn't resist the cherry topped treat. That cherry was a beacon to her. A beacon I tell you!"

The Empire Biscuit community have supported the biscuit in questions vigilante actions and have pledged to carry out similar attacks on anyone who approaches an empire biscuit with a hungry gleam in their eye. So...

...beware when choosing your teabreak snack
that the treat you choose doesn't bite back!
The cherry topped empire looks so appealing
But if it bites you first then you will be squealing
Go for a hobnob or a pink wafer
Although a bit dull a wafers much safer!
