You do what? Hobnobs are buttery enough already. I have been known to butter one of those Nice biscuits in the past, but if you're going to serve me what is essentially a digestive in the same box as a water biscuit then what do you expect? |  |

Why would you have a Digestive on 10:24 - Sep 29 with 2103 views | WeWereZombies | Back in the day when I didn't realise that most biscuits were loaded with stuff to keep you eating them I preferred plain digestives, especially for dunking. I find the current trend of putting chocolate into almost everything downright weird. |  |

Why would you have a Digestive on 10:29 - Sep 29 with 2085 views | leitrimblue | I agree completely. It's like dunking a weetabix in yer tea. A dark chocolate digestive would clearly be the way forward |  | |  |

Fair, although on a hot day I'm not having a hot drink, and therefore I'm not having a biscuit of any description. I can't get on board with those people who want a cuppa when it's 30 degrees outside. Nutters. |  |

Why would you have a Digestive on 10:33 - Sep 29 with 2044 views | lowhouseblue | well obviously because the chocolate wouldn't go with cheese. this is basic suff. |  |

Dunking a Weetabix sounds like you are laying down a challenge to me...Also, if you only have enough milk to either make two cups of tea or to soggy up a single Weetabix then I think you may have found a solution to a very difficult problem. |  |

On a digestive? Prefer a water biscuit, or at a push a cream cracker. Or perhaps one of those little Ritz ones. I find cheese with a sweet, sugary digestive a bit weird. Why do those Nice biscuits even make it into those selection boxes? |  |

Custard creams are the biscuit for a hot day. Light, crispy, with soft centre. Works with cold drinks as well as hot. |  |

The classic bourbon can often fulfil a similar function |  | |  |

Its a terrible waste of calories - just eat more digestives instead. What with shrinkflation, I can easily do a packet of chocolate ones in one sitting. |  |

Do love a custard cream, wonderful value for money too if you get the own label ones like I do. How you can get a big packet of them for about 40p is beyond me. Bananas are another one. How's a thing that's been grown, picked, shipped 5,000 miles from Costa Rica, driven to my local Tesco and put on a shelf, till only costing me 14p? Mind blown. |  |

Aldi do a four back of different biscuits (including custard creams) for under a quid - I'll have some of that! My mum reckons she hates this sort of sweet stuff cos flour, fat and sugar combined were more or less a staple part of diet in Post-war 50s Cardiff. I wonder if we're heading back there.

But does a packet of custard creams match up to three bananas (glad to see you have the sense to buy loose bananas than go down the plastic wrapped packeted route, those work out at around twenty pence each) ? You never see tennis players chomping through a packet of custard creams in the breaks on Centre Court at Wimbledon. |  |

Apologies - you butter you hobnobs, rather than your digestives - I'm happy to correct. |  |
