One a penny, two a penny…

There are so many rules about advertising and packaging now.  I’m sure everybody heard about that case where a company could not call their sausages “Welsh Dragon Sausages” because they did not contain real dragons.  And you can’t put a picture of a plate of beans on baked beans tin without saying ‘serving suggestion’ in case a particularly dim consumer gets the idea the tin contains a plate.

Given that such laws exist, I’m a little surprised that it is still possible to buy packets of hot cross buns because until you get them home and put them under the grill they are just cross buns aren’t they?  Its a bit like selling bread and calling it a loaf of toast.
