On the face of it, we all know this shouldn't work. Why would anyone buy these when Chocolate digestives have already been invented? Just don't bother Mr Cadbury, your work here is done.
But...
These chocolate and biscuit combos seek a different path. The proportion of choc to 'cuit is weighted heavily in favour of the cocoa and with four squares per pack it actually falls into the category of 'well, I've had two, I might as well finish them off'. So are they any good? I liked the ritz, Mrs P liked the Lu*. They both lived up to the promise advertised and I hope they stick around but I doubt it. Their very strength will be their downfall, they taste great with tea but rather than take on the mighty digestive, Cadbury are pitching them as a snack which is simply crazy when compared to a penguin or rocky bar. Niche at best, but for lovers of the salty sweet, this is as close to a salty penguin as you're gonna get.
Enjoy while you can.
*Tee hee, snigger
