Wrong sweets at £land

I was OUTRAGED last night when I went to £land to get those sexy exploding glass valentine bear globes.
I was walking down the sweet aisle looking for some sweets and on the bottom shelf - within arms reach of children - not adults so how they expect me to purchase them I do not know - I picked up some sweets that were of luminous colours and could entice any child to want them - not colour blind ones obviously - so could you imagine my OUTRAGE and sheer HORROR at opening the packet when I got home to smash the glass globes, to find they were SOUR.
Thats right, they were not SWEET they were SOUR and made me do a weird lemon sucky face thing when I ate them.
Who can I claim some compo from for this deliberate and downright SCANDELOUS misslabelling of SWEETS.
Wont somebody please think of the Adults.
Yours,
OUTRAGED of LONDON.

More importantly - did the globes smash satisfactorily into lots of artery-slashing shards?

Were you emotionally prepared to deal with eating all the sour sweets?
If not you should look for compensation it's the least they can doFirst Date 08/11/2008, Moved In Together 01/06/2009, Engaged 01/01/10, Wedding Day 27/04/2013, Baby Moshie due 29/06/2019 :T0 -

Ooooh I'd say at least 10K just think if it had been a child like you said.
It's about time £land thought of the children!First Date 08/11/2008, Moved In Together 01/06/2009, Engaged 01/01/10, Wedding Day 27/04/2013, Baby Moshie due 29/06/2019 :T0
