The popular snack, which is Asda’s very own version of
Wotsits, has disappeared from shelves in recent weeks and has prompted fears
that the chain had discontinued the product completely.
One customer, who did not want to be name, told us how she
was having withdrawal symptoms after being unable to get her hands on her
addiction. “It’s been awful,” the distraught lady told us. “I made an online
order and the sent me cheesy curls but they’re just not the same. If I’d wanted
cheesy curls, I’d have asked for cheesy curls.
“So I sent my husband out to the shop and he came back with
cheesy curls as well. I was so annoyed I made him eat every last one to see how
he liked them. Then I beat him up.”
One spokesman for Asda refused to comment on the situation
and told us to get a proper job and a life, however we spoke to an insider,
known only as Malcolm who confirmed there was a shortage and the management
knew it was coming.
“They’ve known for ages,” said Malcolm. “But they didn’t
want to tell anyone in case people started panic buying, then selling them to
addicts on the black market. Cheesy wiggles are highly addictive so a packet of
six, which normally retails at about £1.35 could end up costing about £300. It’s
silly times we live in.”
Malcolm confirmed that cheesy wiggles are on order and they
should be back on the shelves soon. “They’ve had a few supply problems and a
van leaving the cheesy wiggle factory last week went missing, but they should
have more on the shelves very soon.
“Would you like a bag of Cheesy wiggles, mate?”
The Fed Up Jedi turned down Malcolm’s offer and reported him
to the police.
