Always looked at the digestive in the box of Jacobs Biscuits for Cheese with a mix of incredulity and disdain bordering on OCD shock. Such things should not be. It's biscuit to eat with your tea, not put things on. Putting things on is for crackers or bread, not 'ing biscuits. Would you like a nice slice of proscuittio on your custard cream? I thought not. Away with such madness!
Those crazy Americans, not realising that a name can be just thatButter? JFC, here's an idea just buy a proper biscuit instead.
Ever wondered why they were called digestives? Yes indeed they were conceived as a Victorian "digestive aid" and therefore only really suitable for landfill or Yorkshire men. The fact that they are not allowed to be sold under that name in the US tells you all you need to know about their medicinal qualities.
Bloody Aristocrats.Marmite, cheese (any kind), butter, Bovril or Peanut butter are all things I add to digestives. I much prefer the Sainsbury's or Morrison's basic ones to McVities.
Medicinal biscuits! Now there's a thought! Must tell my GP about these at my diabetic review this afternoon! (Don't forget to take a sample again!)
