Uh oh, it seems that Tesco’s shares aren’t the only things that have gone limp. Yes, this buttermilk – ahem – package is also a bit of a cock-up. Thanks for the LOLs Tesco (and Reddit user Andy Burdens for spotting this).
Almost as good as the chocolate santa penis! Seen any other design fails? Let me know at @sonya_barber.
It’s a fine line between peacocking and going to the shops in your pants, and this bloke is treading it with abandon, one flip flop at a time.

So we decided to take to London’s Big Mac merchants to test out the largely US-based practice of menu hacking – where you tinker with an eaterie’s de rigeur dishes to devise cheaper, (sometimes) more delicious versions.
