	Biscuit tin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Because of their attractive appearance, biscuit tins have often been used by charities and by some visitor attractions as fundraising devices since the value of the biscuits in a biscuit tin is substantially less than the price that many customers will happily pay for a tin of biscuits.
		Biscuit tins are remarkable for the range of designs applied to them and for their longevity in the marketplace.
		Biscuit tins were commonplace in the late 19th century and continue to be sold in their thousands in the 21st century.

		Although under continuing pressure from Tupperware and similar plastic containers and from the American-style ceramic 'cookie jars', the biscuit tin remains a part of our daily lives, both at home and in the workplace, but the use of attractive tins to contain biscuits can be traced back to the middle of the 19th century.
		Various patents concerning printing on tin were taken out from 1853 onwards but the first successful process, using a form of transfer-printing, was adopted for biscuit tins in 1868.
		The Fire Brigade tin is eagerly sought by collectors of both tins and fire-fighting memorabilia, and similar dual desir-ability holds for quite a few designs, particularly some of the novelty shapes, occasionally resulting in un-expectedly high prices at auction.

		Biscuit tins were produced in limited editions of 50,000, 80,000 or 100,000 during the Yuletide season and it is these tins that are much in demand as they are getting scarcer (despite the British penchant of never throwing anything away).

		The picture, painted 24 years ago for the Quaker biscuit manufacturer Huntley and Palmer, was recently unearthed in a Somerset attic.
		The artist responsible, an unnamed worker at the company's Liverpool factory, captured the genteel summer scene perfectly - but unbeknown to his employers he added a few extras, including a pair of copulating terriers, two naked lovers in action in the flower bed and the word "shit" on the side of the jam jar.

	Biscuits -- Expeience the wonderfulness of biscuits
		We selected a biscuit and took it in turns to see whether it melted, whether it could go into a biscuit tin, if it made a noise when you bit it, if it felt good when you chewed it, if it produced crumbs and whether it was suitable to be dunked into tea.
		So...after studying the results carefully, me and Joe decided that a biscuit is a biscuit as long as it doesn't have chocolate on it.
		All of the biscuits that melted got a cross, so did the ones that couldn't go into a biscuit tin, as for being unable to be dunked into tea...well...that's disgraceful!

	The Biscuit Tin 4 - In Fact, Ah
		Every time you eat one of those biscuits it is the equivalent of taking the oath of allegiance to the Queen (I was going to make a joke connecting the licking of the biscuit and the Queen but I thought it would be in bad taste, both literally and figuratively).
		In fact, Custard Creams are one of the few biscuits I wouldn’t bother dunking which is a fl mark in anyone’s book.
		Price-wise, they are decent value and their generic nature means you could probably purchase a St. Bernard or KVI pack and not notice the difference (which in my opinion is a damning indictment of any biscuit).
