I read recently that there is a correct way and incorrect way to eat Chocolate Digestive biscuits, immaterial whether they get dunked or not…!
Apparently, the biscuit manufacturers themselves, have stated that the biscuits taste best, when you bite into them, Chocolate face down… THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT.
They reckon because there are more taste buds on your tongue than on the roof of your mouth, you instantly get the taste of Chocolate in your mouth, rather than the less tasteful biscuit.
Everyday is a school day on here eh :0)

Absolutely right.
Chocolate side down is best!

100%. My spreadsheet covers the extensive research I’ve done on this matter.

But the subtler taste (biscuit) should be paired with the area with more tastebuds (tongue) and vice versa, so as to produce a balanced taste sensation.
Pairing the chocolate side with the tongue would produce an overload of chocolate taste.
Plain chocolate digestives are heaven on earth, but the calorific equivalent to 45 mins strenuous exercise each.

I only wish a Jammie Dodger could be dunked because to me, that would give the Dark Chocolate Digestives a run for their money… but alas, who would ever dunk jam into a hot cup of tea or coffee… it would stick to your teeth for hours :0(
Terrible things. That “jam” they use is more like melted plastic. If they used actual jam they’d taste a lot better, but probably be quite messy.

If getting the chocolate taste is the thing why not a biscuit completely covered in chocolate. Or just a chocolate 
?

i am always dunking my biscuit. When I over do it watching the footie, half the biscuit drops into my tie and then I have to fish it out with the spoon.
Are they Yum Yums from Greggs..
Spoon with holes in are the best, I’m a connoisseur in dunking, but once I start hard to stop, hard men of dunking, ginger nuts!
