I have been craving those flat biscuity-raisin things! For weeks! And they are something I would've guessed would be sold here in Ireland. Alas, I have not seen them in any of the shops. I tried some biscuits with raisins cooked in the biscuit that were made by a brand that makes digestive biscuits; they were absolutely not acceptable because they neither tasted very good nor did they taste like what I wanted.
Do you know the item of which I write? It's not too sweet, a little bit salty, not really crisp, and almost too much fruit for the biscuit-to-fruit ratio. And it comes in a long rectangle about a foot long and the segments break apart and you get two layers of biscuit and fruit in the package...
Last night at Dunnes (one of the local mega-chains) I found something that actually looked like the flat biscuity-raisin things I had been craving! They had sugar sprinkled on top (as did the crap biscuits-with-raisins I tried earlier), but I figured it was still worth a go. The texture of the biscuit is more Saltine than I'd like, but it's got more fruit. I think it will hold me over for now.
