So, years ago the Pillsbury company decided to make refreigerated biscuits in a can. They came in a roll of 8 biscuits, which meant that each person in a traditional family of two adults and two kids would have 2 biscuits each.
Then they decided to make Grands biscuits in a can. These were a lot bigger than the regular biscuits, and they came 6 to a can, so if you had a larger family, you could buy the Grands biscuits and everyone could have one biscuit. Because they were so much bigger than the regular biscuits, you didn’t need two of them.
So today I was grocery shopping and decided to buy a can of biscuits. I am not a fan of the Grands biscuits because I have been watching my weight and don’t want to eat that much bread. So I was going to get a can of regular biscuits.
EXCEPT – and get this! – the regular biscuits are now called, Mini-Grands.
What? Is that not actually redundant word play or something? They are not Grands, so they are mini Grands? What happened to REGULAR!?!?
