Is there any biscuit better than a McVities digestive?

Possibly a rich tea. Or maybe a fruit shortcake.

Marks and Spencer shortbread biscuits are my absolute favourite.

Ginger nut.
M&S catch chocolate gingers for special occasions. I don’t want to take them for granted.

Dh loves his digestive biscuits and butter. They are now the only biscuits I buy as I and now dh need to reduce our carb intake. I have actually swapped McVities for M&S and so far no complaints from DH. Plus they are half the price.
Tried Sainsburys but they were vile.

Dead fly biscuits.

Chocolate malted milk biscuits.

Also DH is a big fan of shortbread and his fave is M&S homestyle squares but trying not to succumb. I love ginger nuts especially dipped in my tea or dark chocolate with ginger.

Digestives and Rich Tea are top tier biscuits.

My admission: Choco Leibniz

Fox’s chocolate rounds!

The best ever digestives are the M&S ones…. I could eat a whole pack with a mug of tea to dip them in! 😆

Digestive with cream cheese and jam, mini cheesecake!

strawberrywhisk · 28/06/2023 22:51

Slightly sweet digestive with some of that spicy chilli cheese, an excellent match I discovered last Christmas

Southeastdweller · 28/06/2023 22:53

Yes I concur but aren’t they expensive now? Agree with a PP that the M&S ones are really nice too.

It’s desperate hard to choose.

Tighginn · 28/06/2023 23:52

Hovis digestive, is the digestive king. Lu Le Petit beurre is top biscuit!

caringcarer · 28/06/2023 23:55

Everyone knows a ginger nut is best.

Ostagazuzulum · 29/06/2023 00:03

Malted milk! They win every time for me!

Hurrydash · 29/06/2023 00:25

Jaffa Cakes.

Although technically maybe a cake, they come in packets a look like biscuits!

Totally yummy😀

DumpedByText · 29/06/2023 00:34

Yep a chocolate covered malted milk, absolutely lush!

EmmaPaella · 29/06/2023 00:39

The digestive I had with my cup of tea post-birth is the best biscuit I have ever had.

I do love a dark chocolate digestive too.

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

Yip the borders dark chocolate ginger nothing comes close.. My favourite and bonus is I'm the only one in house that likes them. 😋.

Groutyonehereagain · 29/06/2023 01:14

Yes to McV digestives, chocolate digestives and ginger nuts.

uncomfortablydumb53 · 29/06/2023 01:14

I like the Lu Petit beurre and chocolat ones
Like a buttery rich tea

AppleDumplingWithCustard · 29/06/2023 01:20

Digestive with butter and cheese wins all

Strawberry jam and cheddar.
