Is there any biscuit better than a McVities digestive?

Possibly a rich tea. Or maybe a fruit shortcake.

Digestive with butter and cheese wins all

Tesco dark chocolate digestive

Love a digestive. I don’t think you can beat a custard cream though.

Chocolate cow biscuits

DisforDarkChocolate · 28/06/2023 21:33

Borders.
Ginger, raspberry, lemon. All better than a digestive.

The mcvities digestive is king

Oioicaptain · 28/06/2023 21:34

Of course there is! It has to be a Jacob's Figroll!

BonnieGlasses · 28/06/2023 21:35

Er, all of them?! Digestives are the worst biscuit. So boring! Give me a chocolate hobnob or a shortbread finger or a Jaffa cake or anything other than a digestive!

AdoraBell · 28/06/2023 21:35

Only a McVities chocolate digestive. Although I am partial to a custard cream too.

JaukiVexnoydi · 28/06/2023 21:40

Yabu. Whilst a dark chocolate hobnob is way better than a digestive, both are beaten hollow by a Border Dark Chocolate Ginger.

MeinKraft · 28/06/2023 21:40

Hobnobs are nicer than digestives

mynameiscalypso · 28/06/2023 21:40

Digestives are far far far superior to rich tea biscuits. You shouldn't even mention them in the same breath.

YappyCamper · 28/06/2023 21:41

Is this a joke? They are literally all better.

Except maybe fig rolls. They're horrid.

Deadringer · 28/06/2023 21:42

I love Digestives, rich tea not so much.

BCBird · 28/06/2023 21:43

I agree re digestive and butter. I also like bourbon creams, Jammy Dodgers, fig rolls and rich tea. Shame I've gone gluten free.

Greengreented · 28/06/2023 21:45

Chocolate hobnobs FTW

Greengreented · 28/06/2023 21:45

I really dislike chocolate bourbons and custard creams 😂

IWasFunBeforeMum · 28/06/2023 21:46

Choc hobnob (or aldi's oaties)

morelippy · 28/06/2023 21:47

I can't really argue with most of these.. all delicious.

Apart from bourbon which are nowhere near as chocolatey as they need to be.

Chocolate hob nobs or pink wafers

wildfirewonder · 28/06/2023 21:49

They're awful, all palm oily. I like a biscuit to be buttery.

readbooksdrinktea · 28/06/2023 21:49

Ginger Nuts = the best biscuits. I'm so sad I can't find them where I am.

BHRK · 28/06/2023 21:49

Borders biscuits and hob nobs!

dudsville · 28/06/2023 21:49

Dark chocolate covered ginger stem biscuits for the win. So good you only need one to satisfy, whereas the dark chocolate digestive... sure it's great, but you might need 5 or 6 to satisfy.
