people want Lincoln Biscuits back

REPORT ABUSE

Lincoln Biscuits are just about the nicest biscuit ever created, with tea, coffee or just on their own. They were made by McVities until 2007 when disaster struck and they were removed from production.

Jacob's, also part of United Biscuits, make one but these are only available in Ireland and cost a fortune if you wanted them delivered.

We need either the original shortbread biscuits being produced back here by McVities or for Jacob's to start selling here in the UK.

Let's see if we can't get these little beauties back on the tea trolley to be enjoyed for current and future generations.

In order to stand a chance of getting these little slices of sugary bliss back we need more signatures. If you are great at social media then share this with all your friends on Facebook, Twitter, Pintrest, Google+ infact any and all and let's get so many signatures that McVities have to listen to our plea.

Today (12-04-2016) I discovered Avon Vale Foods in Slough do sell Lincoln Biscuits (www.avonvalefoods.com) they are based in Slough. They cost 79p per packet plus a delivery charge of £5 if the order is under £20 or free if it is over £20 this may be different depending where you live. If you live near Slough you can buy them direct and go and pick them up from them. I hope this helps all other Lincoln biscuit lovers :).

Last weekend in my local Tesco I found Lincoln biscuits, not ion the biscuit section but down an aisle marked World food. I purchased two packs and on return to home was transported back to being a kid again by gnawing round the outside edge of small pimples. Next to the Lincolns they had Lemon Puffs,

I'm sure these would be very popular again. I certainly would buy them every week if they were available.

Lincolns were my hubbie's favourite biscuit and I distinctly remember them for their melt-in-the-mouth quality and the lovely bobbley pattern. So come on you bakers, make lots of people happy and bring them back!

Can't even find any on Ebay to buy in from Ireland :( What a fanstatic this biscuit was and would be if it returned! Me: Please bring back Lincoln biscuits. These are now but a happy childhood memory. I think you will find that there is quite a movement of people online who are desperate to see them back on the shelves in England. Right now I could oh so happily polish off a nice stack of lovely sugary bobbly Lincolns but alas all I can do is dream and hope. Yours Lincoln bereft, C M McVitie's response: Dear Mr M Thank you for contacting us concerning your inability to find McVitie's Lincoln 200g. We regret to advise you that these are now discontinued and are unlikely to be manufactured again. Before any product reaches the shelves, extensive and costly product development and research is undertaken. Only a small percentage of new product concepts reach the retail outlet and even then, products may easily fail to gain the necessary appeal. Sadly, therefor
