I've noticed a lot of typography on food particularly biscuits here in the UK. I never thought about it but the concept of putting text on food is pretty odd.
I have to cater for a tea and I want all the food to have type on itSo far I've got:
Rich Tea
Digestive
Bourbon
Nice biscuits
Custard Creams
Morning coffee
Malted Milk
Kit Kat
Club
Choco leibniz
Oreo
Love hearts
M&MS
Skittles
yorkieanyone think of any other good examples?

you mean... on the package or actually on the biscuits?

I think you've got enough there Matey, I remember the chocolate side of animal biscuits, had quite a Cadburys logos pattern all over it!
You're right, it is a weird concept really, a type covered biscuit, I shall examine everyone I eat from now on!

Fortune cookies have type in them, a nice twist for the grand finale?
Plus if your cunning you could write your own lewd fortunes to go inside or something typographic related if you must.

perhaps McVitties could get Si Scott to do a limited edition digestive? or Build maybe?
I'd buy them from Blanka for £40 a packet plus P&P

as an aside - why did smarties lids always have a letter on them - do they still?
- Goodness - to collect all 26, man! I don't think they even come in tubes, do they? Some kind of -ogonal box fold, no?detritus

- I only say as I happened to notice a 'tube' of Smarties whilst queuing in a s'market last week. I was disappointed.detritus

on the smarties note:
ive got a book my folks got me when i was younger. you had to save up the lids then send so many with your name and photo.
in return you got a book back with you as the main character then the last page of the book had a photo of you WITH all the other characters. It was a kinda 'jungle book' story.- No it wasn't - stop lying. Jeez, you Scots must've sniffed so much glue as teens.detritus

Wow, great response, thought this was a bit random.
Hovis are a good one.
Still not sure why they all have type on them, I guess because they can.
Fortune cookies are a good idea too. Nice touch
