AUSTRALIANS are known for being laid back, but they’re not usually known for being laid backward — until now.
A Coles bakery ‘Celebrate Australia’ cake has become the butt of jokes on the internet after a picture of this backwards bake was captured in Wodonga — with Australia reversed.
As it turns out Coles takes its geography seriously, responding on twitter with concern over a cake that flipped the nation.
MONEY: Why Aussies love buying locally
SHOPPING: Why self-service check-outs suck
When Coles responded on Twitter requesting information on where the cake was baked @Hindmarshjohn said: “My wife took picture in Wodonga Plaza store. ‘Please don’t sack anyone’ she says.â€
Coles was on the cake ... erm. case, saying it just wanted to make sure such cake displays never happened again.
Not surprisingly the cake was marked down at 20 per cent off.
