It's not just the private sector. When I used to attend meetings at the Ministry of Defence, it seemed that the standard plate of biscuits always comprised exactly the same assortment (the MOD must have bought a vast job lot of them), invariably including exactly one Jammy Dodger.
It was an unwritten but unshakeable rule that it went to the meeting chairman.
