Talking Giraffe bread hits the shelves
One to make you smile on a Wednesday

Little Lily Robinson the three-year-old got Sainsbury's to rename its tiger bread after writing a letter saying it looked more like the markings of a giraffe.








Viral: Lily's mother posted her daughter's letter and the response on this Facebook campaign page which went on to get more than 140,000 'likes'

I think I'm the only one who is absolutely unimpressed with this story and the fact that one of the parents typed the letter for the girl yet figured it would be clever to type 'sainnnsssssbbbuuurrryyys'.

Firstly, I would never name my child Tarquin. Secondly, my children will have that illusion of Santa shattered at an early age. I shall tell them he was murdered by the Tooth Fairy.

I'm joking, of course, I do agree.....whenever I have to 'judge' any work..drawing, poetry etc at work, I always avoid the ones which have had obvious 'parent input'

I agree with Ben and Ammi on this, that said though, Giraffe bread is a more fitting description even if before opening this thread I was like what! surely they are not adding bits of Giraffe to their bread *Feels stupid for that, and sidles out of thread*.
