I'm going to write to Premier Foods and demand that they pay me if they want to stay as my supplier of Angel Delight.

I asked my butler to ask my cook to do an inventory check of the larder with a view to donating any Premier Food products to the local food bank.

I'm not sure that they'd be grateful for the half drum of Saxo salt that the cook unearthed so it's being retained for slug clearance purposes.

Where?

It's immoral everywhere.

Damn right it is.

When their defence is "we have done nothing illegal" then you know damn well it's immoral.

OK. I didnt know you were there.

OK. I didnt know you were there.

And it would have been illegal here too if the party that pretends to stand for business hadn't voted against it.

While I'm not going to defend Premier Foods for one moment we should not castigate them alone.

My experience in supplying major multiple retailers is similar practices, though not necessarily as direct payments, are commonplace and can take many forms. Ultimately, however dressed up, these support the retailer at a cost to the supplier.

To date I have yet to encounter such practices with independent retailers seing similar or even identical products in to the same market.

It's only posh if you have tinned fruit cocktail and sprinkles on it.

Oh yum! My mum makes a 70's style trifle on Christmas Day that incorporates tinned fruit, tinned custard, Swiss roll and sprinkles.
Kids love it!

She makes the cream on top spiky like a snow scape.

I'm coming round to your mum's for Christmas, tell her to make an extra big one.

Yes, as Mother Nature intended them to be on Christmas Day!
