About Digestive
Digestive biscuits are mildly sweet cookies originally developed in Scotland during the 19th century. Traditionally made from whole wheat flour, sugar, and a touch of baking soda, they were designed to aid digestion, hence their name. They boast a crumbly texture and are often enjoyed as a snack, dessert base, or accompaniment to tea. While their modest fiber content from whole wheat offers some nutritional benefit, their inclusion of sugar and butter can make them calorie-dense. Digestive biscuits serve as a classic staple in British and European cuisine, celebrated for their versatility and subtle flavor. While not the healthiest option, moderate consumption can fit into a balanced diet. Today, variations like reduced-sugar or gluten-free digestives are available for those seeking healthier alternatives without compromising on taste. Perfect for pairing with a cup of tea or coffee, they combine tradition with simple, comforting enjoyment.
