this is oddly satisfying to watch.

[@bobsmith3291]

Why is it odd

[@AbsoluteBarstool]

I live in the US and I love digestives amongst other chocolate biscuits. I am incredibly grateful that there is a store near me that sells products imported from the UK and they’re delicious 😋

[@ludame]

I live near here and whenever I drive past it smells amazing

Moxie Beast ASMR cool

[@fionaobrien4447]

the decision to flip all the biscuits onto chocolate rather than individually adding chocolate to each was genius

[@Arrica101]

I thought it would make more sense to have them go through like a flowing chocolate curtain, like a shower. I don't know how to describe it. That way you don't need to flip them at all.

[@johnadams1147]

I still thought they were covered with chocolate - it must be more cost effective to have them flipped onto it instead.

[@dumi_thicc]

@@Arrica101 that would waste chocolate though, and probably cause a lot more mess

[@mr.anonymous5501]

@@dumi_thicc Not really. I mean, they have to recoup and rework all the chocolate that isn't under s biscuit. After the minimal loss due to an amount coating the insides of pills and stuff, the chocolate that did not land on a biscuit could also be recouped and reworked. I'm guessing their decision to use the flip method was because it gives a more even coating.

[@ponggaaa4854]

@@mr.anonymous5501 and maybe they like the pattern on the top, which is now signature to digestives.

Digestive biscuits are my favorite From Ghana 🇬🇭 to Belgium🇧🇪. They're everywhere

I wouldn't have imagined it would be in either Ghana or Belgium! Mind blowing!

I saw this factory when I was going to Stockport, the smell was amazing, it felt like I was at home eating digestives with tea, I could taste the biscuits just from the amazing smell, terrific, yummy! 😋

Eat a whole pack and swear that I'll never do that again. Then tomorrow: grabs 3 more boxes : )

@Sixx998 fml what was i thinking, not even i care

[@whakabuti]

My grandmother loved these and you couldn't get them in my country. The last time I bought them for her she passed away before I could come back home. Now every time I eat them myself I am reminded of her. It's a strange relationship to have with a tea time treat.

Drive past the factory on Stockport Road during the day most heavenly smell ever

This is a good video. Sometimes these “how it’s made” videos contain unrelated clips that are unnecessary, disruptive, and irritating. It’s good that this video is strictly about the manufacturing process without those stupid cuts.
