Marketing Director at pladis UK&I Benazir Barlet-Batada spoke on the McVitie's Digestives Pink saying, "We know consumers are currently enjoying nostalgic flavours across a wide range of food and drink products, and that nostalgia in food ins’t just about recreating the past, it’s about rediscovering it in a way that feels new and exciting. Meanwhile, pink is also still trending as a popular colour across food and drink. Our new Pink Digestives are fun, fresh and packed with fruity flavour, designed to delight loyal Digestives fans and foodies alike."
