Even the sober guardians of public order are getting involved in the April Fools japes.
British Transport Police (BTP) have announced a new ban on eating any smelly food on trains, with fines of £2,000 for any offenders.
Apparently, a Criminal Food Behaviour Order will be slapped on anyone caught consuming prohibited items: eggs, fish (whether fresh or tinned), blue cheese, sausage rolls, fermented shark or vegetables, and even all “fast food”.
Inspector Pete Pong (ahem), said: “Stinky food has been a long-standing contentious issue on Britain’s rail network and I am pleased we could respond to the public’s concerns and work to stamp out this very pressing problem.
“In my years at BTP I have witnessed numerous horrors, from those thinking it’s acceptable to crack open a homemade tuna sandwich, to others eating boiled eggs like apples. Not OK.
“BTP is proud to be a progressive force, and I hope passengers welcome this exciting announcement.”
