Obviously from the advert for Penguin biscuits a few years back when they used to say P..P..P..Pick up a penguin.

Derek Nimmo, the famous stuttering raconteur (for want of a better word!) made the advert for Penguin (chocolate cream-filled chocolate coated chocolate biscuits!) biscuits, and to cash-in on his stuttering, the simple phrase "Pick up a Penguin" became even better known as "P..p..p..pick up a Penguin".

A chocolate biscuit made in the UK.
They're a small chocolate sandwich coated in Chocolate.
A main-stay of so many Kids packed lunch boxes all around the UK.
They're ok, but I couldn't eat 1 now.
It'd make my teeth sing, 2 sickly sweet.
