Are the hovis crackers you get in a Jacob's selection box just digestive biscuits in a different shape or are they different?

They're sprinkled with fairy dust and dried unicorn poo.

But not rainbow unicorn poo, those are only in the [i]special[/i] boxes...

Are Space Raiders just different shaped Monster Munch?

No. No they aren't.

Clearly marked as digestives they are fine, masquerading as cracker biscuits they are an abomination. Thus different.

Not sure, but they don’t seem to belong in the same box as crackers. Never trusted them

I don't know but they are wonderful, especially when they're just slightly stale for some reason. 😐

What cheeses do people eat them with? I haven't found a combination of biscuit and cheese that's made the Hovis cracker palatable.

Usually drown it in full fat soft cream cheese.

A full-flavour artisanal cheddar made in an out of the way dairy somewhere in the West Country.

Ghastly things those hovis crackers...

There’s a factory somewhere in the North churning these things out, most go for resurfacing the road network.

True fact.

Hovis digestives are just their stab at making a digestive biscuit, pretty much the same.

Goes really well with mild cheese, cheddar or soft cheese for me.

I just buy normal digestives though, sod paying £5 for 12 crackers just because it's christmas.

Just feed your unicorns with these and in a couple of days, rainbow unicorn poo.

The Hovis crackers pictorialised by Drac are allowed in the tin, my preference would be Jacobs Choice Grain but compromise is as much a part of the cracker barrel as crumbs. I thought the point was people sneaking digestives into the cracker selection, which should be stamped out by the authorities.

In fact I'm going to write a letter to my MP on the matter.
