EP the Foden was run by a well known chocolate manufacturer no name mentioned, the tank on the front was filled with warm chocolate kept hot by a system of the Gardener engine exaust and the back half was for finished product or packaging this is what was stated, it was the Idea of the chief engineer of said company at the time but cannot imagine it being that good, Buzzer
