'Plastic in Mars bars? As a pen chewer, it must still be healthier than sugar.'

"Having chewed the ends off countless ballpoint pens and never come to any harm, I’d have guessed that a Mars bar full of plastic was a great deal healthier than a Mars bar full of sugar. Mars is clearly rather more conscientious about unexpected additives than some food companies. I once found several bits of plywood in a packet of cereal and sent them off to the manufacturer in the hope of winning £100,000 in compensation. All I got was a standard pro forma letter telling me to bugger off, along with a £3 voucher for their cereals. I tried to spend it but B&Q was out of stock."
