Tesco Rich Tea Biscuits

Rich tea biscuits are probably the most boring biscuit money can buy but by simply dunking them in a steaming hot cup of tea they become delicious and I cannot get enough of them. I recently tried the Tesco version of the rich tea biscuit and having been a loyal McVities buyer for years I can tell you I will now be changing. Once dipped in the tea which is the only way I ever eat a rich tea biscuit they taste exactly the same as the much more expensive McVities ones and they seem to take a dunking better too, they hardly ever get too soggy and break and they are slightly thicker than the McVities ones too so each bite is a more satisfying ...  Read the complete review

Having a cup of tea wouldn't be the same without a biscuit (or ten) to 'dunk' into it - and i've certainly dunked my fair share of biscuits into a fair few cups of tea over the years! Sometimes I can get a bit carried away, and demolish half a packet of whatever i'm eating - then end up forcing myself to do around 100 sit-ups before going to bed. Whilst I was in the supermarket last week, I came across the humble 'Rich Tea' - a biscuit we always had in the house during my childhood, and I though I would revisit it, and give it a go. Rich Tea was apparently developed in 17th century in Yorkshire for the upper-classes as a light snack between ...  Read the complete review

200g of Rich tea biscuits from Tesco in a bright blue wrapper cost 38p that's pretty good. Not too many calories in a single biscuit there are 36. I bought some of these the other day and ate one or two with a cup of tea. These are not the most exciting biscuit they are plain and boring round with little pin prick in them a hard crisp biscuit , don't leave the biscuit tin lid off or they will go soggy. One advantage is that they dunk into the tea without disappearing into a mush at the bottom In comparison to other makes of rich tea biscuit these are ok, middling not out of this world but not dire either. They taste plain slightly ...  Read the complete review

Tesco brand Rich Tea Biscuit........ For a mere 38 pence you can get this good sized 200g weight packet of rich tea biscuits from Tesco. Now I do love a cup of tea and what I love more than a cup of tea is having a rich tea biscuit to dunk into the tea. I am a firm believer of dunking nothing more than a rich tea and those people who dunk biscuits such as bourbons are a little mad in my view. You can't beat a rich tea biscuit and for this price you are getting a rather nice version of a rich tea at that. The biscuits are housed within a fairly nice packaging that is easy to open and looks far better than the value packaging. The taste of ...  Read the complete review

Tesco rich tea biscuits at only thirty eight pence a packet are excellent value in my opinion, like these because occasionally I want a biscuit that is not too sweet and laden with sugar and at only thirty six calories per biscuit they will not put too much strain on teh waistline, I also find that because they are dry they are not as moorish as other brands of biscuits and hence I do not crave more so a couple with a cup of tea in the morning does me fine for elevenses. These have a rather bland taste to them but one of the attractions for me is their simplicity, hey are very crunchy when you bite into them and not too crumbly, it is hard to describe the ...  Read the complete review
