 Menz has resurrected the Pollywaffle (a sadly departed iconic Australian confectionery bar) as bite sized balls.

This would not normally be of interest to us, because, well, wafers. 

Until I picked up a bag out of curiousity, to see just how badly I could not eat it.

And then I swore.

That's a mystifying marketing strategy

writing "gluten free" in small print on the very bottom of the bag, where it may well be invisible until one picks it up.

I hope they're delicious!

It's in reasonable sized print on the front of the packet. This makes it almost impossible to see when you're used to looking for microscopic print in low contrast colours on the back of the packet. :-)
