It's a chocolate-coated biscuit. There are also digestives, these are the same but without the chocolate.

Sorry, why can't Welsh, Scots or even Northern Irish know what a chocolate digestive is?

Because the americans class this big lump we live in as "England" (Or 'Eng-er-lund, depending on what part theyre from) not "United Kingdom" as its properly known.

True story: I once met an american who wasn't sure if France was part of England or in it or something.

It's a digestive biscuit. We have them here in America as well, except I believe they're called Metamucil.

Well, it's not quite a chocolate, and it's not quite a digestive, but man...heh heh heh...So to answer your question I don't know.

A chocolate digestive is a biscuit (pardon me, "cookie") coated in chocolate on one side only. It has a crumbly consistency, like it's made of oats or something. They recently introduced a caramel version with a layer of caramel added which is extremely addictive - so much so they should carry a government health warning, in my view.

Do you get Rich Tea biscuits in the U.S.? Probably not. They're designed to be dunked in your cuppa, only you shouldn't hold them in for too long 'cos they turn all mushy if you do.

I should have said one side only.

I think it has something to do with wheat or something....

LOL!

All biscuits, IMHO, (not coated in choclate) are designed for that purpose. :)

How can you drink something twice??

Tea's worth having if you're prone to coffee-induced headaches like I am.

Technically possible, though too grotesque to contemplate. But, as Archie Bunker said, "You don't BUY beer, you only RENT it."
