Yesterday I bought some McVitie's Hob-Nobs from a Mini-Stop. Never in all my born days did I ever think such a thing would happen... I am currently dunking one into a cup of Yorkshire Gold (sent from home). (the teabags, that is - not the cup of tea. It'd get spillt, obviously.)
They had Chocolate Digestives too. |

It's a biscuit. (or a 'cookie', for you North American types) |

I have seen tonic water for many years (at least 3 or 4).
Digestives is the equivalent, so I am told, of graham's crackers. |

Does it aid in digestion or have any kind of laxative properties?  |

| The graham cracker was developed in 1822 in Bound Brook, New Jersey, by Presbyterian minister Rev. Sylvester Graham. Conceived of as a "health food", it is more like a digestive biscuit than a cracker. The true graham cracker is made with graham flour, which is unsifted and coarsely ground wheat flour. He used this due to its high fiber content. |

Sorry, dry oat. My backlight on my laptop monitor is shot. Grrrr. I need to shine a desk lamp right on my screen and I only manage to see part of it. |

First up, for you hippies with clean side, we have patchouli soap. Price, if you can't make it out, 18,000 won. Yeah. Holy crap expensive.
Last up (and I debated putting this in my "you want me to put that in my mouth" thread) we have instant mashed potatoes:
About 600 won. Add a cup of hot water. Mix. I add a couple dashes of montreal steak spice. Really not so bad. About 170 calories. Grab a cup of this add some instant jajjang myun sauce and a turkey leg and you've got an instant thanks giving dinner. |
