No easy way of checking exists, so I assume statewide or possibly national availability. I bought 1 pack and left at least 160 on the shelving. They have a moderate whiff of mango but no discernible mango flavour. Nor do Kit Kat bars, for which these are a sensible alternative at 11c per biscuit. They are 36% milk chocolate and dated 04/05/2017. Made in Australia.
Arnott's Twisted Faves Shortbread Cream 250g Packets - Mango & Cream - $1 @ The Reject Shop
Although confectioners will name almost any concoction cream, I consider the phrase "Mango & Cream" misleading after perusing the ingredients.
Ingredients: Wheat Flour, Sugar, Vegetable Oil, Salt, Eggs, Baking Powder, Mangoes (0.02%) [honestly!], Emulsifier (Soy Lecithin), Food Acid (Citric Acid), Flavour (Natural), Antioxidant (E307b from Soy), Food Colour (Annatto). CONTAINS EGG, GLUTEN CONTAINING CEREALS AND SOY. MAY CONTAIN TRACES OF MILK, PEANUT, SESAME, TREE NUT AND SPIDER.
One packet end declares THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR QUALITY® unlike the ™ adorning both at https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/297790 and there is no Health Star rating.
These are acceptable biscuits and quite fresh, but I would not have guessed the mango flavour, and the entire packet contains 0.05g mangoes, which I would have difficulty seeing.
Best Before 11/04/2017. Made in Australia. About 180 packets remained when I left.
Within her sumptuous executive suite at Camden, New Jersey USA, Denise Morrison conducts a semi-formal chat with Wilbur from North Strathfield NSW.
D: So Wilbur, you joined Campbell Soup Company USA upon attaining your Marketing degree and headed Arnott's TimTam division for 5 years?
W: Just after you took the helm of this amazing corporation, Ma'am.
D: Why is the new mango flavour available at Ye Olde Reject Shoppe in Cessnock? Isn't that rather downmarket?
W: No way Ma'am! I infiltrated Australia's foremost bargains website and learnt that store expects a Royal Warrant from that Prince Charles of theirs.
D; Excellent! Welcome to the Board as Vice-President, Wilbur!
We cannot see the value Wilbur, you cretin. The packet contains only 9 flipping biscuits and weighs a meagre 165g. It promises "A delicious combination of crunchy biscuits and mango flavoured cream covered in milk chocolate" and "0.5 Health Star rating". Both ends declare THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR QUALITY™.
Ingredients: sugar, wheat flour, vegetable oil (contains soy), milk solids, cocoa butter, cocoa mass, emulsifiers (soy lecithin, E476), salt, natural food colours (caramel I, annatto), baking powder, mangoes (at last!), food acid (citric acid), flavour. That last word can cover a multitude of sins.
"Hey Fred! Did you get that spider?"
"Um, well, that bastard was fast and … it might now be in Vat 3C. What's the calculator for?"
"Mango flavoured cream? It weighs far less than 0.008% of contents, which we're not legally compelled to specify in the ingredients as anything more than flavour. So keep on pumping out those cookies Roy!"
"Biscuits. Fred. Enjoy your flight, Wilbur."
No, 208th in line to the throne. Thanks again for OzBargain sponsoring this Royal Warrant campaign, scotty. Your introduction to HRH is certain as we became great chums when I inherited Leicestershire. What happened to our previous comments here? A technical glitch, I suppose.
