Crumbs !!!!!

At one time, in the UK at least, biscuits were sold loose, from large tins. As you can imagine this resulted in broken biscuits (Even more so than the pre-packaged damage of today) left in the bottom of the tine. Instead of being thrown away, these remnants were sold as Broken Biscuits at a much reduced price. Often shoppers could be heard asking for " A pound (1lb) of broken biscuits please".

 

There are many recipes today that utilise broken biscuits, although I suspect biscuits are deliberately broken to produce the cakes etc.
