    Mmm. They're called stroopwafels (syrup waffles), actually a Dutch invention, but Belgium is close enough. :p

    As for the Nicest biscuits, well, it would have to be Nice biscuits,of course. They're called Nice for a reason, y'all. Wait ... oh, you mean Nice, like the city in in the south of France? Whatever, they're still Nice.

    Anything other than a plain digestive is immoral decadence.

    Not so much dipping in my tea but biting the ends of a twix and using it as a straw is prob my fav thing to do with tea.

    Just had my tea with hobnobs. I can now confirm they are the best dunking biscuits!

    Dunnes Stores chocolate digestives. Close second is chocolate hobnobs. Not even debatable.

    Guys, guys, guys! No one said a pink wafer yet! Has everyone lost touch with their inner child? They were always the first ones to go from any biscuit tin that contained them when I was a young'un, there'd be a big race to get them and all. The unnatural colour clearly meant they were the best!


    Don't worry, I'm not some mental manchild, they're clearly vile; I'd go with a hob nob or something.

    Can you provide any evidence for this? (Ideally in the form of some tins of biscuits in the post to me)


    Sun Readers Love Pink Wafers Genuinely bizarre that adults would say it's their favourite, but I guess Sun readers don't really count.

    Chocolate mikado is a top class biscuit
    Ordinary rich tea with real butter close second. Thick tea more like yon liga things.
    Coffee way more suitable for dunking. Way more.

    McVities double chocolate digestives.

    We opened a pack last night and had a few after our tea. First thing this morning I get a tongue lashing from my not yet 5 year old, "DADDY!!!, DID YOU FINISH ALL OF THE BISCUITS WHEN I WAS ASLEEP AGAIN???" I just said sheepishly, "yes, I did, I'm sorry, I'll try not do it next time"... :pac:

    My two favourite biscuits of all time are:

    Double Stuf Mint & Creme Oreo
    Spellings on that one are intentional as I only ever managed to get them when on trips to the US and used to have many packs in my suitcase coming home.

    Jacob's Elite Jelly Stars
    You always knew it was Christmas when there was a tin of biscuits in the house with some Jelly Stars in it and they were MINE - ALL MINE!!!
    Then they brought them out as an Elite and they had their own pack, and on a rare occasion you might even find a tin of them...heaven!!! But that seems to have stopped... :(

    The supervalu own brand jaffas are quite good for about half the price of the others. Probably below Jacobs in quality but not by much and better than McVities.

    Gingernut would be my favourite dunking biscuit. I do love a chocolate hobnob too.

    Viscount.

    Add poshness by keeping the "s" silent.

    Every discerning culchie biscuit lover loves a Viscount dipped in sweet tea. Always in big demand during silage-cutting season.

    Do people still eat biscuits? When I was a kid, I mainly ate orange creams and Bourbons. (Not together.)

    I am ashamed of what I have done in the past for Bourbon creams.

    I am even more ashamed in advance of what I will do next time.

    The viennese biscuits

    Foxes melts and then you can get similar ones in lidl or aldi

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Caramel digestives and viscounts. It's nearly impossible to stop eating them once you open the packets
