    OK....quick translation for our American buddies...a biscuit in England is the same as a cookie :)

    Mine has to be butterscotch and chocolate chip soft butter cookies...yummmmmm.

    Nice choice mcadam....excellent if you dunk them in hot java too ;)

    You must be seeing things McA. ... your title is still Major Geek.. you must have been under too much strain from exams, you need to lie in a darkened room with some sliced cucumber on your eyes to relax them ;)


    I also kinda like Shortbread and Jaffa Cakes ( weird ass cake tho...? ) Full Moon, Half Moon.. total Eclipse :) ( still LMAO at that Advert )

    Tee hee, that was a good one :D

    Ahh yes, tea and biscuits. I'd like a cuppa and a nice chocolate hobnob about now, but we're fresh out. Damn healthy foods what my parents buy. I want my 9pm cuppa with a nice dunkable to go with.

    Ya see we're stocked with hobnobs lol hehe.

    Halo, next time it's changed, IF it's changed I'm gonna screen dump it to prove you wrong
    Bet it's not gonna happen now lol.

    Hang on.....you're joking lol

    Hmmmm.......can't follow your own rules, eh?

    My favourite cookie is Godiva double-chocolate with pecans.

    My favourite biscuit is from-scratch baking powder. ;)

    Fox's Golden Crunch Creams and Butter Crunch Crinkles, the Classics aren't bad either.


    Be aware though that my idea of a good biscuit is one that is complemented by a nice cup of tea...for dunking purposes :)
     
  21. mcadam

    mcadam Major Amnesia

    Rah to you!!!

    I'm also a major fan of shortbread :)
     
  22. Lev

    Lev MajorGeek


    Ahhhman....Fox's....THOSE were my fave biscuits in the UK...teh sandwiched lemon ones, but they don't make them anymore *sighs*. And yes.......I agree...a nice cup of Earl Grey to dunk and wash it down with :D

    @Halo....you're right...it didn't change....I think you're right...mcadam needs to sit down with a cup of tea and some biscuits and just take it easy for a while ;)

    Nahhh....we're still on topic...just suggesting you sit down and take it easy with a HOBNOB ;)

    I reckon kit kats are a kind of candy, tbh =p

    bourbon creams are damned nice, as are custard creams. Prefer them with milk though, not tea :D

    Even Abby thought his title had changed - see her response number 22 of http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=592771#post592771



    Oh um, my favourite biscuit is a milk choclate one, no raisins, currents, coconut, nuts, plain chocolate...

    Key being thought b/c I have seen him post 2 or 3 different times that he has a new title but when I looked it said Major Geek...personally...I think McA needs glasses;)...:D:D

    Whoops! Forgot to add my cookie prefrence...I would have to say the molasses cookies I used to bake with my Grandma...they took 2 days to make b/c they had to be refrigerated for a good while before you could roll them out. Good stuff....even better memories.:)

    ...and on the subject of biscuits, I came across this news story about a "biscuit critic" who set up a web site and now earns tons of free biscuits: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cambridgeshire/2982280.stm leading to that link Goldy posted earlier.

    Also, there are other biscuits stories, such as: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/3155994.stm
    The number of times I've open packets only to find a number of broken biscuits, well here's your answer!

    I like good old fashioned baking powder biscuits.
    They are great with soups and stews.
    They also remind me camping… :D

    Halo my friend, you have to be clever to become a doctor on biscuits hehe!
    I just swear you're all in on me, trying to make me shut up. It's not fair. I need backup.

    And I can't do anything like that with paint because me and graphix don't go.

    Abby did you ever say what your favourite biscuit was in this thread??!!!
