Brandt Hobbits kernig Review |
Guten Tag!
I've been eating these for a few years now (Brit living in Germany) and I have to say that I was surprised you thought them not as sweet as Hob-Nobs. (I believe Hobbits are a sort of German version of Hob-nobs but I have nothing to back up this claim apart from the sort of similar name). I think the Hobbits are over sweet, but I'd never checked the ingredients, and it could be the horrible Vanilla-type-flavouring you mention.
Oh no, I'll have to buy some tomorrow, strictly for scientific purposes only.

Brandt Hobbits kernig Review |
I can re-assure your correspondent Victoria Uren that there are no depleted uranium atoms in Brandt Hobbits. "Kernig" is one of those strange German words that have several meanings. "Kern" means "core", so as in English could either refer to a nuclear reactor or a Granny Smith. It can also refer to wholegrains of wheat/oats etc, hence "Kernig" means "oaty" or "wheaty" in this context rather than radioactive.

Brandt Hobbits kernig Review |
Dear Nicey,
I am somewhat concerned after reading your Hobbits review. My memory told me that I had encountered the "Kern-" bit in German words before. Being at work I only have my technical dictionary to hand and have found that it prefixes most of the words to do with the nuclear industry (Kernanlage, Kernbrennstoff etc.). Do you have Geiger counter among your biscuit review equipment? Possibly a second hand one could be obtained from eBay at a reasonable price.
