I much prefer milk chocolate but i don't mind these at all. In fact, i've found that these satisfy my chocolate craving more than their milk chocolate counter-parts which i think has something to do with the cocoa content. Dark chocolate seems to satisfy cravings a lot more quicker than milk chocolate, therefore this means you eat less, thus consume less calories - win!
At around 80 caloires each, you don't want to be eating the whole pack. But if you're like me, one inevitably leads to another.
A pack of 400g usually costs between £1.30-£1.40, but i've seen them on offer for a £1 in some places or for buy one get one free.
Of course as a branded biscuit this explains the slightly higer price than a basic digestive biscuit (e.g. smart price for about 40p!) but in my opinion you can taste the difference.
They are a "sweet-meal" biscuit which means they are not bitter in taste.
Can't really go wrong :)
Summary: I have a craving for them now
