A BISCUITS lover was devastated after not finding jam in his Jammie Dodger.
Richard Freeman had settled down for a cup of tea when he noticed his shortcake sandwich was being changed.
He explained: “It was at the end of the package that I discovered two biscuits together, without jam. It was traumatic, to say the least.”
Zoologist Richard, 53, added: “I was attacked by a snake, chased by a tiger in Sumatra and caught in a tornado in the Gobi Desert. But when a man can’t eat an entire pair of pajamas with his cup of tea, then something is wrong.”
He blames a lack of quality control at Burton’s Biscuits, which has been producing the family favorite for more than 60 years,
Richard, from Exeter, added: “Standards are getting worse. They need people in the factories to achieve the goal.”
Russell Smith, brand lead at Jammie Dodgers, said an updated recipe caused problems on the production line, adding: “We deeply apologize for any inconvenience.
“We always strive to provide customers with the gooiest, creamiest flavor in our shortcake sandwiches.
“After all, what’s a Jammie Dodger without jam? Just a cheater. . .
“And it looks like this time the congestion has really slipped away.”
More than 500 Jammie Dodgers are consumed every minute in Britain, with a quarter of households stocking up on the sweet treat each year.
And Richard is not alone. MJ Fosker tweeted: “My cookie decided to play hide and seek with the jelly! I will get over this. . . possibly.”
Richard is thinking about starting a Jammie Devils support group for people affected by bicycle problems.
He said what next, a cream without cream? Where do we draw the line?”
