A customer rushed into Blighty's recently to purchase one jar of Cadbury Chocolate Spread. That was all she wanted. She seemed anxious and then relieved that we had it in stock.Now I know that this stuff is very good to eat. Cadbury Chocolate Spread on a piece of bread will pick your spirits up and make you feel good for the rest of the day.
But why did this lady look so relieved to find it on the shelves at Blighty's? It turns out she had just returned from a trip to the UK where she had bought the very same product. An official at a UK airport had confiscated her Cadbury Chocolate Spread because it was deemed to be a liquid or gel that exceeded the allowable size for inclusion in her carry-on baggage.
In the wacky world we live in nowadays travellers are suspected of interfering with the operation of an aircraft using chocolate spread.
"Take me to Cuba, I have Cadbury Chocolate Spread and I'm not afraid to eat it!"
Beam me up Scotty, all intelligent life has left this planet!
