Tried my first Caramel Chocolate Digestive yesterday. Still unsure about what I experienced. Troubling.

They are lovely.

The taste itself was pleasant. However, the lack of ease of a one-handed break, coupled with the chewy consistency, left me slightly nonplussed.

 

Feels to me like the first step on the slippery slope to Jaffa Cake city, and I'm not going there.

They are ok for dunking as the chewiness keeps the biscuit from breaking apart in the hot drink. They can be a bit sickly after the first few..... packets!

Choco Leibniz biscuit heiress apologies over Nazi-era labour comments

There was some truly abysmal Ultimate Biscuit countdown programme on channel 5 the other day with such biscuit experts including Vanessa Feltz, some cunt from Blue and Richard Blackwood found some time for his input despite his heavy keyboard smelling schedule. Chocolate digestives were deemed the number one biscuit and a scientific study has deduced that Fig rolls are the most resilient "biscuit" to dunk as it can maintain structural integrity for up to 40 dunks.

Feltz looks like she probably is an expert on biscuits, to be fair.

Yeah, I saw the tail end of that. Thought it was a repeat until they said it was a

follow-up to the one they did a couple of years ago. The ‘celebrities’ on it were sodding useless. They were shown the different coloured wrappers for the old Club biscuits and asked to guess the flavours. Not one of them got one right.

I'm not normally a biscuit eater but I've just had one of these and it was lovely, but now I feel bad because it probably makes me a massive Nazi.

Garibaldi should lick this, though the absence of Fig Rolls is slightly disconcerting, as is the preference of dark /milk chocolate digestives which is dark of course.

Rich Tea are ace. Great dunking biscuits and you can put honey on them for a quick snack too.

Are toffee pops still around? Loved them as a kid although they are not a dunking biscuit

[Bjornebye]

Them Belvita breakfast biscuits are lovely. They had them reduced to a quid in Tesco Express last week so I bought a pack. I hate eating first thing in the morning but these kick me off nicely.

Yes, you can still get them. 

[Tony Moanero]

@PestiRed No good to you but Toffee Pops are 50p a packet in Morrisons. I had some the other month, they were tiny but enjoyable. I dunked them.
