Comedian-turned-actor Vir Das continues to amaze his social media community with his pun-intended and humorous takes on various aspects of life. His recent take was on a pack of McVitie's Digestives Milk Chocolate biscuits. He took to X and shared a photo of him holding the crunchy wheatmeal biscuits topped with a layer of smooth milk chocolate. Alongside this, the foodie drew a striking comparison between McVitie's Digestives Milk Chocolate biscuits and those from other Indian brands, wondering whether any chocolate-covered biscuits like these are available in the local market.
Vir wrote, “Okay. Parle G, Marie, Good day…why haven't we been able to figure the chocolate-covered biscuit thing out? Would be soooo much better than a digestive.”

The post sparked a humorous debate among foodies on social media about popular biscuits.
In response to his post, a user stated that Bourbon is currently the closest available alternative. Vir further reposted the reply and argued that a chocolate-covered Parle-G biscuit would be superior to a Bourbon biscuit. He wrote, “No shade to bourbon. It's a good biscuit. But a chocolate-covered Parle G would wipe the floor with it.”
