Why is it the packs of Tucs cheese biscuits invariably arrive broken

My guess is that shelf stackers play pass the parcel with them on
the journey from warehouse to shelf.

Do you do as I do and only take biscuit packs from the back of the
shelf, which is the least likely place for a shopper to replace a
pack they have just dropped?


I take EVERYTHING from the back of the shelf, all the freshest stuff
is there.


Even if you're going to consume it straight away? Rather selfish?


It leaves the option to change your mind, eat something else that night
and save what you have bought for another night.

We always go for the longest use by date to give us maximum flexibility
- especially as my wife is ill and often decides she's not up to eating
a full meal and will just have a snack and then I generally decide that
there is no point is cooking a proper meal just for me. It may then be
days before we get round to eating that item.
