Small print.

How I wish I’d read it when I looked at the Platinum Pudding competition. It was only a trawl through the F&M entry form which had a section marked “FAQ’s” that I discovered I wasn’t eligible to enter. Anyone who has a professional qualification is unable to enter…. so that counts me out. I was doing the research prior to chatting on local radio, making sure I had as many answers as I could find, just in case there was a tricky question. Hey ho. I’m convinced that small print is getting smaller. Reading ingredient lists on packages is practically impossible these days. Bags of crisps sometimes print the variety of potato that’s been used and I search for that. Of course not all producers put it on, but I wish they did. France has banned all excess packaging which is a brilliant move, but will no doubt lead to more wastage and higher prices, but I do like a paper bag. No printing needed. x
