Guru

Thank you to Disciple Gary for tipping Guru off about a new product that might help thousands of women boost their... er... confidence without expensive plastic surgery.

F-Cup cookies are a Japanese invention that, the manufacturer claims (and it is a big claim), will increase the size of ladies' breasts.

The pseudo science suggests that all the fat within the F-Cup cookies goes straight to the chest area (rather than to the buttocks, as with any other biscuit).

Simply eat two F-Cup cookies a day to achieve bigger boobs. They (the cookies, that is) come in packs of 4 costing ¥290 (£1.24 at current prices) and each cookie contains 50mg of the "miracle breast enlarging herb Pueraria Mirifica".

Disciple Gary makes some interesting human resources and workplace-related observations about F-Cup cookies

1. These cookies could be well worth bringing into the office in lieu of birthday cakes. Stripped of their wrappers, no one would know of their powers until they had done their magic upon your female colleagues.

2. Might F-Cup cookies prompt an increase in gender reassignment applications, especially if unknowing male workers over-indulge?

3. Would there be the possibility of litigation from a disgruntled employee complaining of an unwanted increase in chest mass, and would the HR department be called upon to judge whether there had actually been any tissue growth?

Guru has previously advised that office snack etiquette is a minefield. Now he finds out it's also a booby trap!
