An in-depth study into Britain’s biscuit-eating habits revealed that shy people prefer Rich Teas while those with fiery temper eat Ginger nuts. The survey also suggests that people with the best sense of humour are into Hobnobs while those who like Fruit shortcake are the most charming.
Meanwhile, Digestive lovers claim to be “fun-loving.” In the survey, they said that they are likely to watch Hollyoaks, Frozen’s Elsa is their favourite Disney character, and wish they were a little bite wise.
On the other hand, Fruit Shortcake lovers are the ones who are more likely to choose a “staycation” in the UK, say Neigbhours is their favorite soap, and wish they were more patient. They are the exact opposite of Milk Chocolate Digestive lovers who favour beach holidays in Spain, watch Coronation Street, and would most like to go for a drink with David Beckham.
The study, which claim to reveal personality traits of the nation based on which type they like most, was carried out by McVitie’s to celebrate National Biscuit Day on Friday.
Sarah Heynen, Marketing Director at McVitie's, said: "We know Britons love their biscuits but we wanted to dig a little deeper and discover what makes each biscuit-lover unique.
"We hope our research will put smiles on people's faces for National Biscuit Day and reminds everyone biscuits can help make everyday moments just that little bit better."
