This has been driving me and my friends nuts for a couple of years now. We know McVities made Plain Chocolate Hobnobs, but nobody can find any for sale. We can find them online from British Food websites targetting the US, but obviously they are much pricier than popping down your local supermarket and picking up a pack!! So, do you know which shops stock PLAIN Chocolate Hobnobs? Over to you guys!

I am in Cornwall, but my friend who is also looking is in Cardiff. We've looked before on internet shopping and it's not listed. It should be easy. They exist. The little crumbly buggers!

I've resurrected this old thread because .... McVities Plain Hob Nobs have now been spotted, and eaten, by me. They're definitely in Somerfield stores. In fact they've been on BOGOF there for the last couple of weeks now too. So ... I, er, had to buy 2 packs last week. Unfortunately, they lasted precisely 36 hours. Yes, the whole lot. Whole 2 packs. Gone. Currently they are selling in my local Somerfield at £1.35/pack, which I think is taking the mick a bit... but on BOGOF that's doable. Once. I don't think the chocolate is thick enough though.... I earnt brownie points with my mate for telling him they're available locally and where and he hot-footed it off to buy some. Haven't seen him since, I think he bought a whole box of them.
