Anthony Coulson from McVitie’s is missing a trick (Taking the biscuit: for 100 years we’ve been eating chocolate digestives wrong, 24 April). My wife’s family introduced me to the proper way to eat chocolate digestives – in pairs, chocolate to the middle. I have enjoyed them this way for more than 50 years.

• Despite the advice about eating chocolate digestives chocolate side down, I shall continue to eat them with the chocolate side up. It’s easier to keep chocolate from sticking to the fingers.
