Disappointed by the Promise of Glucose

I went to the shops the other day and found a curiously named biscuit. “Glucose” it read. Well how bout that? I said to myself. Glucose. I like the way this company thinks. They tell it how it is. They cut the crap and give you what you need. Glucose. I happily bought one.  I think I might have even bought two.

You can imagine my disappointment when I greedily ripped open the packet and discovered a very dry, cream-less, chocolate-less biscuit with no kind of culinary embellishment at all. What the…?

It is my understanding that glucose is basically sugar, right? Shouldn’t a biscuit that prides itself on being “Glucose” be a bit more exciting than this? Basically thin dry bread.

Quite frankly, “Tiffany Biscuit” company, I am disappointed in you! What a waste of a good name! What a big waste. I hope there is another biscuit company somewhere in the world that will do justice to the promise of Glucose. I await its discovery eagerly.

Huff.
