These biscuits are called "Happy Faces"...Do you think I have a case under the Trade Descriptions Act?

I wouldn't risk complaining just in case the person you deal with looks like the biscuit.

I'd say that wasn't a good day at the factory.

that could be viewed as discrimination against people with disabilities,
or is it another one of those cases like when a white upper class person claims something is offensive to people from an ethnic background yet the people from the athnic background are not offended

Re: Happy Faces
then if they themselves are offended by the picture of the biscuit i shall apologise!
however by me saying a biscuit has disabilities and it being offensive is madness!

and perhaps people should check themselves in for a head check, i dread the day they see a box of broken biscuits for sale, they may view it as the limbs of amputees!
