truly delicious biscuits are challenging to ship, especially overseas. they’re either too quick to spoil or very delicate. you can do it, but it’s really pricey, and at that point people will just buy local artisanal cookies. hence you can only make delicious biscuits at home
OK wait PROLED is actual OLED i thought it was LED just better backlighting or something. actual branding fail, very unusual from Apple
