"If you please, Sir, Mother says, will
you let her have a quarter of a pound of your best tea to kill the rats with, and an ounce of
chocolate as would get rid of
the black beetles?"
(Punch, 14 August 1855)
So, A Great British Tradition?
As Arthur Hassall commented in 1855,
"It is curious to notice how constantly the adulterating
shopkeeper endeavours to shelter himself, and to
excuse his dishonest practices, under the assertion that
the public…
…..'LIKE IT' and 'WILL HAVE IT'."
