The UK's deadliest biscuit

Picked up this story today about the biscuit most likely to cause you injury during a tea or coffee break. I've put a link to it below so wont reveal the answer but I wonder if anyone has any biscuit tales of woe

I note that jaffa cake is very safe, presumably because it gets eaten in one bite.

My Sister once got 1/2 a Kit Kat (complete with foil wrapper) stuck in her ear..... She was pretending to be Lt Uhura from Star Trek....

Wouldn't have been so bad but she was 36 at the time

One bite could potentially pose a high risk of choking?

The innocent .... until proven guilty simple digestive biscuit caused some embarrasment for a speaker at a seminar (100 seat lecture theatre) we were setting up.

The speaker had arrived early and unbeknown to me had been 'miked up' and was grabbing a coffee whilst the safety talk was in progress.

We had just set up the audio equipment for the delegate safety talk when everyone was deafened by loud crunching sounds emanating from outside the theatre and I can confirm that it takes about 50 seconds to finish or fully digest a 'digestive'.

Funny now ..... thinking back - but not at the time.
