I'm sure they are good for the digestion; probably scrape out the gut, roughage.

Clarification please. When I lived in England, people referred to sweet biscuits and savoury biscuits, what Americans would call cookies and crackers, respectively. However, it seems to me that digestives are neither nor. Of course, I'm not referring to digestives garnished with milk chocolate ...[text shortened]... t the plain ones. So is there actually third classification of biscuits, into which digestives fall?
I prefer jacobs cream crackers or cheese thins

Splendid!

This biscuit thread is really gaining momentum.
I think self isolation is beginning to tell in the general forum.

People are clinging on to their biscuits like lifejackets in the coronavirus seas.
