Smarties Cookies!

Hah!

On saturday I bought smarties cookies, only to open them at home and find they were burnt to a crisp! They were inedible and resembled the texture of ginger nuts! You could chip your teeth on them!

So given that I watch what I eat and work out all week so that can have something bad at the weekend I went back to the same store to buy another packet the next night. This time though they were small and undercooked!!! So doughy that they tasted rubbish!!

Would you complain about that?

Its only £2 but its the princple you know!!!

I would take them back and complain, £2 is £2 and it doesn't seem much, but what about quality control? what about basic standards of production that we should be entitled to?

The supermarkets get richer while their quality gets poorer and we just accept it because it's only £2 right?

I live in a globalised consumerising society and yet I have just come back from a country where £2 is the equivalent to a days wages and will buy a small bag of rice, some fish and a little put aside towards an education.

£2 is £2, it's what you can do with such a little amount that counts.

Are they the Smarties cookies that are cooked in-store? If so, I had the same problem, wrote to the stores CS dept and got an apology and £5 voucher, so I could buy more cookies mmmmmmmm!

I can't stand overcooked cookies. They have to be gooey and doughy

I've been disappointed by Smarties cookies before too; they have been very overcooked. I don't buy them any more but I'd have been happy with the doughy ones!:j

Well, on average you got perfect cookies! :rotfl:

Sorry. Getting my coat ...

I assumed Tesco, ASDA, Sainsburys cooked the cookies themselves? I mean dont they probably just pay for the rights to sell them and get the packaging from the smarties company and the mixture?

Or do you reckon they are made my smarties themselves?

Yes they cook them in store, thats why I complained to the store CS dept as it was the stores bakery that overcooked them.
