I remember them from Christmases past as being quite long.

Mr P and I were discussing what to get in for our Christmas bits and bobs, (leaving aside Cheeselets, which could almost be a thread of it's own confused and he said no Twiglets, because they are now too short!

I think he may have a point, the tub we had last year were definitely on the short side!

Does it matter though? You just eat more of them, surely?

They could be 5 cm and I still wouldn't eat them and as for cheese lets and cheese footballs pass the sick bag please.grin

You can get mini Twiglets. They had Twiglets on offer at Morrisons yesterday and I nearly bought a tub till I noticed they were mini ones. When it comes to Twiglets I need professional help - I am an addict. But I don't like the mini ones.

Thanks for reminding me. I must get Twiglets, they are a Christmas essential, along with pickled walnuts, which aren't yet in our local Tesco.

Twiglets have been declared a hazardous substance and have been banned from the face of the earth.grin or so I have told DH. Smelly things!!!

I haven't eaten a Twiglet in years, yumm !

Cheeselets now that's a different matter, I'm addicted.

I love Cheeselets too, but they've changed too in recent years - probably to make them 'healthier'...huh!

I can't get Twiglets in this country so whenever I go overseas I put loads of packets in my suitcase to bring back. I love them - always have. So does my best friend so I always give her a packet when I can. But yes they are shorter than they used to be but I couldn't care less.
