Brand of cookie first marketed as an anti-flatulent

They are a staple of any British tea break. They are called digestive biscuits (in the uk we call most cookies biscuits).

They are called digestives because the creator thought they could prevent flatulence lol. I can attest that this is not true lol

Tree they are pretty, pretty good. Those are the digestives classic format. But they do a range of chocolate covered ones which are more popular.
