Penguin chocolate bisquits

Hi!

I just beat James Pond II and am very intrigued to try out these Penguin chocolate bisquits by McVites which were advertised in the game. I've checked online to buy it on some sites, but they either don't ship to me or have an insane postage cost (one was $22 and another one $44, for something which costs around $5).

So if any nice British person would buy a few of these for me (around 3-5, original one, so no mint, orange or something like that included) and ship them to me, that would be great. I'll pay you some for the trouble on top of the chocolate and shipping costs. I can pay with PayPal.

Thanks in advance!

I will, I'll let you know when I post them out. They're nice too, chocolate covered bourbons really. Don't worry about paying for the trouble, just the biscuits will do fine!

I heard these Penguins were like Tim-Tams in Australia.

PM sent :).

Those look scrum diddly umptious! Crunchie bars a re excellent as well. I hate american candy, it has too much sugar in it.

The problem isn't necessarily the amount of sugar but the type of sugar used in the US; usually high fructose corn syrup. Sucrose and especially Glucose are a lot less problematic. Your brain actually feeds on Glucose and nothing but Glucose. Fructose (if not ingested as part of fruits and vegetables) is problematic. It doesn't feed your brain, instead gets stored away as fat reserve and on top of it makes you crave for more. All it does is make you fat and causes diabetes.

They aren't really anything special,pretty bad if you ask me but most kids had one in a lunchbox growing up.

You heard right.

After all this talk of these Penguin biscuits, I found that my local supermarket stocked them in the imports section so I picked up a pack to try out.
They are indeed almost identical to Tim Tams, very disappointing since I'm sick of those.

I was expecting at least a penguin shaped biscuit or something, but no.
