McVities Dark plain Chocolate Digestives

Without doubt these are some of my favorite chocolate biscuits the crisp crunchy crumbly digestive topped with dark chocolate. In general I prefer plain chocolate to milk chocolate
Mc Vities are now owned by united biscuit, as are so many other biscuit makes.

Mc Vities started making chocolate digestives in 1925. The people in the UK apparently collectively eat over 52 of these biscuits a second.
Since then chocolate biscuits have been manufactures . When I was a nipper Macvities only made the milk chocolate variety . In fairly recent year the plain chocolate one was produced and since then a variety of different types of digestive biscuits .

These are quite large round biscuits one side covered in a plain chocolate that is rippled onto it.
The digestive biscuit is crunchy but crumbly. It is made from wheat flour and oats. The biscuit tastes sweet and buttery, the chocolate is good nice flavour the plain chocolate is a good one, not too bitter.
These biscuits are a good satisfying one. They are good comfort food ideal for a winters evening.

There are 486 kcalories per100g or 84 kcal per biscuit , so do not eat a whole packet in one sitting or you will become rather round .

These biscuits are to be found in a brown plasticy wrapper with the blue /white MC V logo. I have seen some lurking in cardboard tubers similar to Pringles tubes when opened the later stay crisp longer. The tubes contain 250g biscuits.

McVities dark plain home wheat chocolate biscuits are available in most supermarkets and corner shops in garage shops and I have seen them on sale in Spain. If you are living abroad they are available from an on line shop.


I like Mc Vities dark plain chocolate home wheat digestive a lot they are one of the better chocolate digestives. Tesco sell them for £1.12 for a pack of 400g on offer at the moment 2 packs for £2.00 , I am going shopping tomorrow so shall stock up on some.
