I have a 'dirty secret' ................
I dunk "Crunchies"

I’m putting a real dampener on proceedings on this fun thread. :
Did you know that it is very common practice for famous brand named and supermarket’s own brand biscuits to be baked in the same factory/bakehouse in the UK? :-X
In fairness to the suppliers they do change the packaging/labels. :P :-X

Two chocolate hob nobs together (chocolate side in so you don't get messy-Mans logic) & a big mug of Yorkshire tea (heaven)

Common. It's normal. Even multiple supermarkets are made in the same place. I don't know of any supermarket that owns it's own food factory...I’m putting a real dampener on proceedings on this fun thread. :

The differences are not just the packet, but the ingredients, mixture, and sublties in the process (temperature, mix times, etc). Basically the only thing often shared is machinery and roof under which these things are made.

When I was in college (yeah I know.. long long time ago) I worked holidays in a creamery. We put the cream into cartons for all the high street supermarkets; M&S, Waitrose, Sainsbury's etc etc. It was all the same cream, produced exactly the same way - we just changed the pots and the labels on the machines when doing a different run. M&S was the most expensive because they sent an inspector down every week - none of the others did. On those inspection days we had to wear hairnets.... guess what happened on the other days?
I paid my rent in cream - I brought home some of those that couldn't be sold for whatever reason in my topbox.
