Express Review on McVities Milk Chocolate Homewheat Digestives

What have McVities done to the Plain Chocolate Homewheat (Digestive)?This once top range product is now no better than the cheap home supermarket brands!!! - I thought, at first, that I had a "bad packet" but subsequent packets, since Christmas have all been dreadfull.This just isn't the same product - perhaps it is healthier, perhaps it is cheaper to manufacture - but it IS awful, if McV don't do something then it will be another British Culture loss and McV will lose market share on what must surely be one of their top brands.Shame on you Mc V - Please do something before it is too late.
