I'm a bit behind the times with what Da Kidz are saying these days

Mind you the looks of confusion and panic when I lapse into Scouse in Pudsey or Leeds are simply lovely

Word!

Cheese on toast suggests an open-type affair, one slice toast covered in melted cheese. Grilled cheese suggests where bread is present in both the superior and inferior positions, and is therefore more in keeping with toasted sandwich, or "toastie".
Or perhaps you didn't mean cheese on toast, but rather cheese between toast?
"Fiendy, love - what do you fancy for your tea?"
"Oooh, I don't know - how about some cheese between toasts?"

Melted cheese on one slice of toast is cheese on toast; melted cheese between two slices of toast is a toastie.

"Grilled cheese" suggests to me... just the cheese. Grilled. Like a parmesan crisp.

Oh and cold cheese on warm toast (or between two slices of toast) is an abomination unto Nuggan

I have to say that cold Cheshire cheese slices between toasted bread with a slather of Lurpak is a rare delight in my gaff. Lovely but on a fattening par with the Guinness diet

i like cheese on toast. putting baked beans on it is much better. and feels healthier.

Biscuits...BISCUITS it says!

Quite right
& I am enjoying a light snack to accompany the footy on TV

Today's biscuit is digestives sandwiched together with homemade raspberry jam.

I am, as they say, livin' the dream!

I used to do a similar thing but with Nutella

I have never knowingly eaten Nutella - it smacks of already chewed Cadbury's Whole Nut.

It's not so bad really. But never put it on bread. That's just weird

I must disagree - paradise is filled with Nutella (never on bread!) and seventytwo 80s version Vons

Today, I am eating garibaldi. I am trying NOT to eat the whole packet but fear it is already a lost cause.

That happens to me with Farley's rusks. I love those things & they are just big biscuits really.

Boredom in Asda Owlcotes lead me to Double Chocolate Digestives as a reward for spending too long shopping. Memo to self - leave the short arse at home next time.

hey!

i love farley's. maybe they're less hassle than ready brek, even.

Farley's FTW

I don't drown them in cow juice though

Not strictly (well, at all actually) a biscuit, but today I had a Star Bar. Which given that I am 1000s of miles from the UK I thought was a pretty good effort.
Oh and a penguin ...which at the risk of starting an Australian/British incident is basically a slightly crap Tim Tam

Yesterday was a sad day - only biscuits at work were...I can hardly say it as they are the very worst of biscuits...Custard Creams.

Yesterday I ate no biscuits

Yes, folks - it's time for the long-awaited return of our Biscuit Distance competition! We want to know, how far from its place of origin have you eaten a biscuit? Ever eaten a Tunnock's TeaCake in Birmingham? A TimTam in Dubai? An Oreo in Norway? Write in and tell us - whoever can provide us with photographic evidence of the furthest distance between the biscuit's manufacture and the place of consumption wins a lifetime supply of Nice and Lincoln biscuits.

Full disclosure: I'm breakfasting on Plain Chocolate Digestives 3,446 miles from where they were made. Gauntlet drop.

I'll have a crack at that.
Peanut butter Oreos in my kitchen in Balatonfured, Hungary


Although I did bring Tim Tams back when I went to see The Cure in Sydney.
That's seven years ago though so none left
