bickster Posted March 2, 2023 Moderator Share Posted March 2, 2023 We've talked about biscuits before but they really do deserve their own thread being the food of the gods that they are. So to start the debate, a question. Is the chocolate on the top or the bottom of a McVities Chocolate Digestive? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted March 2, 2023 Moderator Share Posted March 2, 2023 The top, but it’s barely even chocolate. They’re not very nice, anyway. The good biscuits have lemon. Other good biscuits have coconut. It’s a science fact. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted March 2, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted March 2, 2023 Or to put it another way: is the chocolate on the left or the right? The answer is: on the right. When I refill the biscuit jar, I open the left end of the packet, and tip them in biscuit side down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Fig rolls, lemon puffs, ginger nuts. Three of the finest biscuits known to humankind. But you can’t keep them in the same jar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted March 2, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted March 2, 2023 We've had this debate before, but I consider the plain chocolate digestives infinitely superior to the milk version. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve identified that the biscuit side is the lower one. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted March 2, 2023 Author Moderator Share Posted March 2, 2023 The chocolate is on the bottom of the biscuit. Look at the picture. The side with the bevelled edge and the makers imprints is the top. The chocolate is on the bottom. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjw63 Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Jaffa cakes. Asda do new ones now with strawberry and lemon flavour. Very nice. I wonder who will be the first to say jaffa cakes aren't biscuits? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the fridge. Normal bikkie jar has gingernuts and custard creams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KentVillan Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Need to clarify whether you are eating these as standalone biscuits or as tea biscuits. Some biscuits that thrive in a standalone biscuit environment wilt under the pressure of tea biscuiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
