'Nilla Wafers....snack of the Elves.

LOL I actually think you are closer to the fact with Nilla wafers! Think about it...they are golden on the outside and cream on the inside, crisp and crumbly and sweet. I just don't know if they were around when Tolkien was writing and I just get idea he was describing something he liked...and the digestive biscuits were around then and common.

We have the Nabisco folk of the Sindarin Elves battling the Keebler Elves for domination of the snack food market.
