Intriguing product names No. 1: Stoats

Who could resist an offer like this, encountered on a commuter train between Edinburgh and Glasgow? It looks great and tastes fabulous. But the brand name is a weeny bit eccentric.
The company says it’s nothing to do with woodland creatures. Instead, it comes from “It’s a stoater…”, a Scottish phrase for anything of amazing quality. And this breakfast bar certainly was.
