Ovaltine Biscuits

It is actually twenty seven gm of carb per biscuit!!!
I could have one of those, or dinner with a dessert, coffee and cream.
 
It says 27g carbs "per serving" but it is not clear what a serving is? ie a single biscuit or maybe two. If the pack is 150g which it states, then even at 100% carbs which it can't be, there would be less than 6 biscuits in a pack (150 divided by 27), so I am guessing that nutritional info is not as it would seem.
They are probably not a good choice for a Type 2 diabetic though and even less so if dipped in Ovaltine drink as suggested in that info.
 
Your link doesn't work for me Martin. Do you mean there are 5 in a pack rather than 5 in a serving? Having 5 biscuits at one go seems excessive.
 
It appears that 5 is a serving.....

Link isn't working for me either but may not be same product as Sainsbury's link is for biscuits, yours is for cookies and a google search earlier showed there is in fact a biscuit version and a separate cookie version xx
 
Anitram right, each serving is 5 biscuits, so 5.4g per biscuit. All they are is malted milk biscuits which have similar carb value.
