People have created a shrine to a packet of crushed biscuits in a UK town

When Warwick PhD student Hugh Osborn discovered a packet of the nation's favourite biscuits lying ~dead~ in the middle of the street, he knew something had to be done. Hugh wanted to honour the loss of the precious snack, but he was late for a meeting, so he took a photo instead to express his outrage and uploaded it to Twitter. Shortly afterwards, when returning to the 'scene of the crumb', he found that a mysterious shrine has been erected to commemorate the passing of the digestives. Hugh told the Indy100:

"The biscuits appeared on our street in North Leamington on Tuesday night. I first saw them at around 10pm and felt the twinge of sympathy natural for such a terrible scene."
