Well after 30+ years of eating biscuits I've only just realised that Mcvities chocolate digestives are smaller than their digestives. Just got me wondering if the reduction in size but the addition of chocolate changes the net cost of Mcvities producing 1 biscuit - any ideas??? |

I like inane thoughts but if i think about that it will involve math   |

I pass the mcvities factory every day on the way to work. My mates also working in there helping repair the damage after the floods in december
He might know someone high up who we could ask why theres a difference |

I was on the motorway once and saw an articulate pulling a huge sized packet of chocolate digestives.
I was sourcing where to find a cup to hold a few hundred gallons of tea to dunk them in until my son told me that it wasn't really a packet of biscuits but just a trailer to look like a packet!
I was fucking gutted with McVities the teasing bastards!!!!!  |

Maybe it's something to do with sugar or fat content per biscuit. Maybe the smaller choccy ones equal a larger normal one in terms of sugar etc. just a thought. |

"Chocolate ones are 16.7G
Regular are 14.8G
You actually weighed them? "
Does it make sense to dunk two or three (depending on mug size) at the same time?
I'm figuring that the extra load will be like a mini work out and may burn some calories in the process of dipping into your tea!

I'm a big fan of digestives...and chocolate...
But I think they cancel each other out when added together and aren't as good as the original ingredients...Much rather have an ordinary digestive and separate chocolate...
There's a 2nd but though...But, I will still eat loads of choc digestives if put in front of me...Who wouldn't! |

Oh yeah I forgot to reply on here.
No if you look products up on the tesco grocery app it tells you the nurtrirional value and the weight etc |

Come on, tell the truth. You went to the local supermarket, purchased a packet of each and then got the scales out?
