I thought the same greppers, but Googling suggests 12

haven't bought them for ages as I tend to have a couple of stacks of 3 meaning to be good, quickly resolve crumbles as do the remaining stacks of 3

Sainsbury own brand ones are quite nasty, btw. Gritty, for want of a better word.

Fig Rolls are the sort of thing that are only eaten when there is absolutely nothing better available.

Dio, no.
Supermarket own brand are usually better.

In France you can get all sorts of different fruits, prune etc. Very nice, but not a Fig Roll. They also do different jaffa cakes, raspberry is nice, but, not a jaffa cake, obviously...

They are the sort of things maiden aunts have and dispense as though they are treats, and small nieces and nephews hide down the back of the sofa.

Many years ago TRO convinced me they were health food. Like flapjack.
