About Digestives biscuits
Digestive biscuits are a popular snack originating from the United Kingdom, known for their mildly sweet, wheaty flavor and crumbly texture. Traditionally made from wholemeal flour, sugar, vegetable oil, wheat bran, and baking soda, these biscuits were originally developed in the 19th century as a digestive aid due to their bicarbonate of soda content. While considered a comfort food, they also offer small amounts of dietary fiber from whole grains, which can support digestion. However, digestive biscuits typically contain added sugar and fat, making them less ideal for regular consumption if you're monitoring calorie intake or sugar levels. They are versatile and enjoyed on their own, with tea or coffee, or as a base for desserts like cheesecakes. Digestive biscuits represent a balance of indulgence and functionality, but moderation is key to including them as part of a healthy diet.
