  1. They’re bringing back memories.

    I haven’t seen them for years, there’s some smaller than that in a bag I think.

  2. That’s the driest thing I can imagine!!

    Life’s too short for a digestive, get some chocolate on it!

  3. Why on earth would you want mini ones? That’s the same level of disappointment as a “fun-size” mars bar.

  4. As a Digestive lover I can’t say I have encountered them. Though TBF the normal ones will be that size soon the rate they are shrinking them!

  5. Not seem them on sale on supermarket shelves but definitely in catering venues ( at an extortionate effective price per biscuit of course).

  6. Onshore non Brit here… Never seen it. Maybe check the best by date?

  7. When I was a kid in the 90s you could get a little bags of mini mcvitties chocolate digestives. Large coin sized. Mainstay of my school packed dinner.
     
    Happy memory unlocked!

    I think they were trying to get in on the cadburys animal biscuit market that came in a box like dog biscuits (or ritz cracker). Maryland took up the torch with mini cookies in a bag. I think they’re still around.

  8. Misread that as digestive mints and was so confused about that combo.

  9. I think due to shrink-flation they’re already being marketed as the regular size.

  10. Why go to the mini size when you can go all in with the usual size?

  11. Digestives are absolutely rancid, I’ve never understood the love for them and say the hate for Rich Tea for example, it should be the opposite.

  12. Nope. But they have gave us the white chocolate ones 👌🏼

  13. No, we get bags of animal shapes with a coating of chocolate.

  14. They’re a thing down here in Australia, not been around too long though.
