In a TikTok that has gone viral, a Durban content creator expressed her frustration at her favourite biscuits being missing from the Choice Assorted Biscuits box.

One tweep posted: “I just opened my box. Merry Christmas everybody”. Another added: “You know it’s not Christmas until someone gives you a box of Bakers Choice Assorted biscuits. I think it must be a South African thing”.
