The custard cream has finally made it into the Oxford English Dictionary - after 100 years. Literary experts decided it was time the vanilla-filled snack was included when nine out of 10 people voted it their top biscuit in a survey. It joins a host of new words to make the 11th edition of the dictionary - including muffin top, sleb and cosplay, reports the Daily Mirror. Muffin top is described as "a roll of fat visible above the top of a pair of women's tight-fitting low-waist trousers". Celebrity, already shortened to celeb, undergoes a further shrinkage to sleb and cosplay describes the practice of dressing up as a character from a film, TV show or book. Also making their debuts are the terms car crash and train wreck - as in "her life is turning into a car crash".
