    It depends how hard you are willing to push them.
    Let us know how you get on.

    Are you telling me to shove fig rolls up my arse?
    Not nice and not funny either.
    Keep your political bile overflow in the House of Commoners section.

    Props to @RedArmySE7 for flying the Choco Leibniz flag for the last ten years. He is of course correct, it’s the current King of the Biscuit and I’m convinced is only not a a nationwide bestseller as most luddites see its name and think I’m not eating that foreign muck 

    Interesting I started this 14 years ago waxing lyrical about Viennese Whirls. Can’t remember having one in the last ten years. 


    It must feel strange reading comments you made 14yrs ago. Bit like a diary this site
    You’re so right, I’m mid 40s now and it’s bizarre reading comments you put when in your 20s

    I got it wrong the programme is at 8pm not 9pm, wouldn't want anyone to miss filth like that, and it's a six part series.

    Eat a whole packet of party rings with a cuppa on Saturday. Nothing says council estate child’s birthday party more but I don’t care, they’re delicious.

    Might not strictly be a biscuit but Tunnock Tea Cakes are World beaters.  I don't buy them often because I always always eat a the whole box of 6 in one binge fest.

    Lately I’ve been partial to Tesco rhubarb and custard creams an chocolate orange bourbons.

    snowballs are the peak of tunnocks' work imo followed by the tea cake then the caramel wafer

    Lived in Sweatyland in 2013.  The array of Tunnock products up there that are not readily available down here was a revelation. 

    However, you cannot beat a chunk of this...

    A lot of places do their own versions. They’re never as nice.

    I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic a few days ago, I am on a Slimming World 12 week plan, and have to stop eating refined sugar until further notice. SO PLEASE STOP THIS TALK OF BISCUITS, plus Garibaldis are the work of the devil! 
    Digestives with a tub of ice cream were my downfall. Have pity on this miserable boy!

    Was finding my chocolate digestive was melting in my hand a bit in the warm weather the other day. 
    Soon fixed by using two custard creams to hold them in a pincer movement

    Earlier in the thread, there was talk of Lincoln biscuits. They sell these for £1 in Morrison’s but you find them in the Irish foods section. Bring back lovely memories of tea at my nan’s.

    PWR but the present Mrs Bluff picked up some “jammy dodger” style biscuits in a pink packet from a trip to IKEA, they’re ruddy lovely…this will have repercussions…
