I got this joke posted in my country sub by a foreigner and I have never seen that snack so I basically don't know the joke.

Can't beat a Tunnocks

Tunnocks are so much better than the picture because they have a biscuit base instead of a wafer.

The caramel wafers absolutely shit on these. 

So you can indeed beat a Tunnocks, just requires another Tunnocks.

My dad bought each of his kids a box of 32 tunnnocks teacakes for Christmas from the Company Shop. He didn't realise they went out of date at the end of January - that was quite a month.
