The Premier League in Choc Chip


I was eating a packet of choc-chip cookies the other day and (accidentally) discovered that one looked like David Beckham.

I’ve never seen a cookie that looks more like David Beckham

This gave me a sanctimonious idea: Why couldn’t Arnott’s market biscuits like that deliberately. Can you imagine it?

New—Arnott’s Premier League choc-chip cookies, where the chocolate chips are arranged to look like stars from the Premier League. Find David Beckham, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Frank Lampard and Terry Henry...pardon me, Thierry Henry.

Then you can reproduce plays at home using your look-alike biscuits.
