Take a close up look at the selection
Not the troubled Brummy car maker this time but the seasonal biscuit assortment. When United biscuits acquired Jacobs UK business and its brands last year who could have imagined that the writing was on the wall for Rover, (again the biscuits not the car maker).
Over the years Peek Frean's Family Circle selection has always gone head to head with Crawfords Rover when in comes to securing that all important place accompanying those numerous Yuletide cuppas. Now the brand has passed via Jacobs to Crawfords and in a remarkable move Family Circle has donned the red and white livery of Rover.
The new selection includes Jacob's Happy Faces as well as chocolate covered fingers. The role of yuckky left till last biscuit is competently dealt with by the coconut cookie.
I found this on a biscuit forum!!. What does lockdown do to one?
No more Rover biscuits for the guys who call round for a chat and a quick repair job.

That certainly takes the biscuit.
