Reddit mentions of McVitie's Digestive Biscuits -400g 3 Pack, Original

I drink looseleaf with an infuser like this one, or in a ceramic teapot (haven't gotten around to shelling out for a clay one yet.) This is my process for making black tea, which is what I usually drink.

1. Put water in the kettle. Bring it to a boil.
   
2. Pour a cup or so of water in the teapot or infuser, put the lid on, and let it sit for a few minutes to warm up.
   
3. Bring the kettle back up to a boil. (If you're using a kettle on the stove, just leave the burner on until the second pour in step 6.)
   
4. Dump the water out of the teapot.
   
5. Put in a few teaspoons (this will vary according to taste and will change as you get more practice) of tea in the teapot.
   
6. Pour boiling water over the leaves, as much as you're planning to make (this, too, will vary, and you'll settle into a usual amount. A few cups, perhaps).
   
7. Wait 3-5 minutes (I set my phone timer for 4).
   
8. Pour into a cup. If you're using a teapot with the loose leaves floating around inside, strain it. I use this strainer, but if you want to go fancy, you can get something like this. They just sit on the rim of the mug.
   
9. Add whatever you want. I usually do a few drops of liquid stevia and a squeeze of lemon juice. Sometimes I'll do a little cream instead of the lemon. Sometimes it's just sweetener. Sometimes I drink it without anything added. Depends on how I feel.
   
10. Enjoy!
    
    I'm not a huge fan of tea bags, because I'm sort of elitist about my tea and because I can't find many bagged teas that are as delicious and full-flavored as looseleaf teas.
    
    When I'm drinking tea, it's usually before or with breakfast, so I'm generally just eating breakfast alongside it. However, for a treat, I like to get some McVitie's digestive biscuits to nibble on with a pot of tea. If you're American, you can often find them in international food stores (or order online!). They go wonderfully with tea, and they're way more appetizing than they sound.
    
    I hope this helped, and that you can forgive my penchant for abusing paretheses! :)

Amazon is selling them - 3 packs for $10.96

What is this penguin bar you speak of? I haven't seen them in our "European" section of the grocery store. If they're in the same category as hobnobs, I'm sure I'll like them.

Is this the right thing? I don't think I can justify almost $9 for some biscuits but I'll keep my eye out for a cheaper option! What do they taste like? Are they like a regular digestive biscuit? I've had these as well as the chocolate covered ones. Are they the same?

Biscuits that you can dunk into your tea. Consider yourself a true Brit when you have mastered the length of time to dunk without getting soggy biscuit in the bottom of the cup.

Mcvities make the best digestives, and if you have a sweet tooth they come coated in [chocolate] (http://www.amazon.com/McVities-Milk-Chocolate-Digestives-300g/dp/B000F9X40O/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1417018689&sr=8-3&keywords=mcvities+digestive+biscuits) or dark chocolate.

I've had some crackers from HEB (Texan supermarket) that all called digestives or something like that and those are gritty and full of fiber but graham crackers are more like a cookie.

They look like this but the packaging is HEB brand: http://www.amazon.com/McVities-Digestive-Biscuits-400g-Original/dp/B000FA8SH2
