McVitie's Tasties Nice - 150g

The Nice lives at the everyday end of the British biscuit tin, alongside the rich tea and the digestive. It is not a showpiece. It is the one that turns up at every tea break, church hall and office kitchen, quietly doing its job.

People in Canada go looking for it for the same reason they hunt down proper teabags: it tastes like an ordinary afternoon at home. Ask anyone who grew up with them how to say the name, then settle in, because this could take a while.

Tasties is McVitie's everyday line, and this is a 150g packet, enough for a few rounds of tea before anyone gets territorial. Keep it somewhere cool and dry, and once it is open, fold the end over or tip the lot into a tin so the last few stay crisp.

McVitie's is also the name behind the digestive and the Hobnob, so a Nice rarely travels alone. Most people pair it with a box of British tea, and it slips neatly into a care parcel for someone a long way from home.
