    Pringles are so shitty that can’t even be categorised as “chips” according to European regulations

    It’s distressing how many British sweet brands now have a chain of ownership leading to the US. Mondelez famously bought Cadbury’s, and Bain Capital (y’know, Mitt Romney’s company) own most of the “classics” like Barratts, Fox’s Glacier Mints, Poppets, Tavener’s, Mojo chews, Barker & Dobson etc. The only big non-American company left is Nestle, and they can also fuck wayyyyy off.

    It’s only Terry’s and Tunnocks left now, and even then Terry’s are owned by the Fr*nch.

          I guess not so much in the grander scheme of things, but it’s astonishing and depressing in equal measures that Britain doesn’t seem able to have kept hold of any of its own beloved home-grown brands.
