I hear British people in movies use the word "grass" as slang. And I don't mean as slang for marijuana. They use it like a noun. Like when Brick Top in Snatch says, "I don't have time for grasses". Implying that the man he was addressing was a "grass".

Why are cookies called digestives?
Is that only a certain type of cookie or what?
what's the deal??

There are other variants, chocolate ones, both dark & milk & the rather lovely Caramel Digestive! Smashing with a nice cup of tea!Why are cookies called digestives?
