About DIGESTIVES WHEAT BISCUIT
McVitie's digestives wheat biscuit is a classic British-style sandwich biscuit with a chocolate compound coating made from sugar, chocolate, vegetable shortening (palm, sal, or shea oil), and cocoa butter, layered over a wholewheat and enriched wheat flour base with palm oil, glucose syrup, and malic acid providing structure and flavor. Per 100 g they deliver 529 calories, 5.9 g protein, 64.7 g carbohydrates, and 23.5 g fat with 5.9 g fiber. The wholewheat flour component contributes the characteristic slightly gritty texture and modest fiber content. They contain wheat, dairy (butter oil), and soy lecithin. Ammonium bicarbonate is used as a leavening agent alongside sodium bicarbonate. The McVitie's digestive is one of the best-known British biscuits globally, and the chocolate-coated version is a widespread teatime staple.
