The BRITISH!!! labelling can be most amusing. Asda always used to sell their bags of Brussels sprouts with labels pretty much just saying 'ASDA Brussels Sprouts'. No doubt you could find 'grown in the UK' printed on the bag somewhere if you cared enough to look. Couple of Christmases ago, they became 'ASDA British Sprouts', which is just deliciously petty What would be the equivalent in an independent Scotland? Cumbernauld Sausage?

You have to assume that they do this based on all kinds of market research and surveying - presumably there are enough freakshows out there who not only want but demand that their ice cubes be made of British water and their sprouts have nothing to do with them unelected bucorats. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, no doubt it just came down to businesses looking at 'Brussels' being a very unpopular word, enough so that very smart people would refuse to buy a product with it on. When, of course, people should just be refusing to buy Brussels sprouts because they're disgusting*. I've just noticed that Morrisons renamed them 'Yorkshire/Lincolnshire Sprouts' a while back too and tried to pretend that they weren't pandering to morons. They'd probably been meaning to do it for decades and the timing was a coincidence. * I don't believe that; I love sprouts. Sorry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I wonder if there is a correlation between flag shagging best of British c***s and everything offends my religion of choice c***s.
