McVities Digestive Wheat biscuits 225g x 4 box (900g total) Imported from UK

Having lived the first part of my life in London, I'm going to consider myself entitled to say that anyone but the British would have re-branded by now, but, well... tradition. And maybe a bit of contrary stubbornness. "Digestive" just refers to the fiber in the whole wheat (graham flour) that goes into these biscuits, making them good for digestion. As for taste and texture, they're a richer, slightly more dense version of graham crackers. If you make graham cracker pie crusts, try making them with crushed McVitie's digestive biscuits (no additional sugar required -- just add melted butter, and press into a pan), and you may never go back. They're great dunked into coffee, tea or milk, and we sometimes crumble rough chunks into ice cream. Or we make a kind of quick and easy parfait dessert, layering vanilla ice cream, lightly crushed digestive biscuits and homemade lemon curd (another lovely British edible with an off-putting name) -- luscious and refreshing. I recently found a recipe that uses these biscuits to make a deliciously crunchy crumb topping for apple crisp, and I'll never make the traditional crumb topping again. These made-in-the-UK biscuits are a bit more expensive than the same biscuits made in other McVitie's locations, and I have a slight preference for the UK version. But all the versions that Amazon offers are tasty and always fresh, so I buy whichever meets my budget at a given time, and am never disappointed. 8/12/24 UPDATE: That "never disappointed" comment above no longer applies. I deliberately ordered the more expensive, 4-box of these biscuits as opposed to the 6-box item I ordered a bit earlier this year. Prior to that order, I had ordered the 4-box, imported from the UK item. After tasting the difference between the "made for McVities" and the "imported from the UK" option, I decided to pay more and go with the 4-boxes of UK imports. Just received that order today, and got the same biscuits I could have bought in the 6-box set "made for McVities." These are the same biscuits as for my last order, which were a bit of a letdown, especially after enjoying the actual, made in the UK biscuits. I checked with a friend in London, and I was right -- the packaging of the made-in-the-UK biscuits I got earlier this year is still in use in Britain, and what I just received were not made in the UK. And I'm not being a fussy foodie. Wheat and other ingredients from other countries do taste different, and the made in UK McVities are noticeably more tasty, and the texture is better. But for this order, I just spent more, got less, and ended up with something I could have bought at one of several local grocery stores that carry McVities. 4/19/25: It's happened again. Just broke into another 4-pack of these supposedly "imported from UK" biscuits, and once again, we received biscuits made elsewhere. At first, we didn't even notice the difference in packaging -- it was the fact that the biscuits were very light and much more airy -- not as dense as the usual UK-made version. And the flavor is a bit different. But considering how many companies are having to make changes to keep pricing down due to inflation, we thought, "Well, there goes another downgrade to a usually dependable product." Then we checked the packaging, and our suspicions were confirmed. This order was definitely not the McVitie's imported from the UK -- it's hit or miss: sometimes when we reorder the same item, we get the UK-imported version, and sometimes the versions that are made for McVitie's, but somewhere else. 12/12/25: Risked a reorder once again, and as with my last four reorders, these are not the made in UK biscuits. I've called customer service each time, but nobody seems to be able to pass along info to anyone with decision-making powers, and have the "make in UK" statement removed. If they can't get the actual made in UK biscuits, it would at least be helpful to have that misleading claim removed from the product description.

My English husband loves these. Perfect with our morning coffee. Best biscuits on planet earth, mate! Innit?!

I bought these because they remind me of my childhood. Same great taste, absolutely love them!

I first discovered these on the shelf of my local grocery store and loved the taste, as well as how they helped settle my stomach. However, when I went back for a refill, either the store had stopped carrying them or I couldn't find the right shelf. They are made in the UK, so I could well imagine that my local store may never get more, so I just jumped on Amazon and bought eight boxes of them, enough to last me a while.

We love these biscuits and buy it often, but this time it came expired with a different date on the label outside. We may have to find another seller.

Excellent! The best British dunking biscuit. Especially like this brand. The box saves them from breaking

Delicious & healthy.

Absolutely delicious. I eat a few for breakfast and later in the evening as a bedtime snack. They are not overly sweet but do fill you up. And being made with wheat are good fiber for the digestive tract.
