Six Wheels On My Wagon - Fluke

Advantages: Individually wrapped, taste ok, not too pricey
Disadvantages: Ordinary these days.

...Wagon Wheels are one of those last few remaining treats that I remember from my childhood, and are still around. As kids we would be given a wagon wheel occasionally and they seemed huge taking ages to eat. I know that when we are young children we are usually quite small but I dont think that this is the only reason that Wagon Wheels seem to be so small nowadays by comparison. Still, in line with other such products, as their size has diminished their price has not. They are usually purchased these days in multi-packs such as the one I bought this week that hold 6 individually wrrapped wagon wheels. A wagon wheel is basically a round biscuit that is a good couple of inches in diameter. There are two digestive type biscuits sandwiched together with mallow and the whole concoction is covered in a cholcolate flavoured coating. Notice... Read review

There are 12 biscuits in this pack rather than 6. Each Wagon Wheel is individually wrapped and has the same picture of the cowboy as that... Read review

...We are all quite fond of eating biscuits in my household. In fact we tend to go through quite a lot in the space of a week often as a result of packed lunches for all of us and an after school snack for the children. I tend to try and buy slightly more healthy versions for example serial bars however occasionally if I see a special offer on at the local supermarket I will tend to buy a slightly more indulgent biscuit pack. Apparently the Wagon Wheel is making something of a comeback at the moment and I was enticed to buy a packet of the caramel version of the product as it was on offer for a pack of six for 50p. I remember these years ago however I'm sure they had jam in them then!! The wagon wheel biscuit apparently has been around since the 1940's and are the biggest chocolate biscuit available to buy on the market (these are... Read review
