I'm sure the kids and parents mostly had a bad time, and the actors, and probably other folks too. BUT, I think it's fair to say millions of other people have had some solid laughs about this, so, you know, alls well that ends well, or something.

I hope she comes to embrace it. I get the sense no one is hating on her at all, but rather celebrating/commiserating with her.

My auntie worked at the Tunnocks Factory when I was small.

As a very special treat, we would sometimes go and pick her up after her shift when she'd been working Quality Control, and get given giant bags of Reject Caramel Wafers, that the machine had gone mental on and made them 15 layers deep. Or Reject Tunnocks Teacakes, where the chocolate was an inch thick on the bottom, or the marshmallow filling had ballooned to the size of a football. Glorious, glorious wonky chocolate biscuits and cakes, as much as my little 5-year old arms could carry home. They were, without a shadow of a doubt, the happiest afternoons of my early 1990s childhood.

When reading the original Roald Dahl books I used to nod sagely and say to my teacher "I've been to Willy Wonkas' factory, it's in Uddingston"

This is a sweet story, thank you for sharing.
