2,500 custard creams a minute is a mind boggling number, but what put it in perspective for me is that it comes to 250 tons a week.
Assuming there isn't a warehouse filling up sonewhere, the world is eating more than two blue whales of just their custard creams a week. Many other factories make them too, as well as their biscuit cousins like bourbons. That's a lot of biscuits!
Truely the heros we need in this tired world.
I agree, they should get the Victoria cross for their tireless work
That's faster than my rate of consumption! This means I don't have to worry about others getting some too!
Fantastic!
