Advantages: cheap, good taste

Disadvantages: breaks off when dipped in hot drinks

Me and my son are a big fan of tea biscuits- plain and simple. I always used to buy the McVities for 63p but this time when I went to Tesco I noticed their value range tea biscuits which was just 25p for 300g and I thought well, I cant be wrong for 25p- let's give it a try.

Ingredients-
Wheat Flour, Sugar, Vegetable Oil, Raising Agents (Ammonium Bicarbonate, Sodium Bicarbonate, Disodium Diphosphate), Barley Malt Extract, Glucose Syrup, Salt, Preservative (Sodium Metabisulphite)

I usually enjoy mine with a cup of coffee. Usually these tea biscuits are meant to be dipped as well- but not the Tesco ones. Every time I dip it, they full break easily and fall apart in my cup of coffee. I thought it was probably just in the first bite but every one of those was like that. Might be they are great to eat just as it is- without dipping- because my son still loves eating these- I don't think he can make much difference!

The taste of these biscuits is good and you can't make much difference between these and any other branded ones. And I still agree for that price it is worth it- but would not buy it for dipping purposes.

I do buy quite a few things from the Tesco value range and still like it but would probably buy these biscuits again- might be I'll try their other variants.

Summary: Good value but i dont like it too much.
