The Great Heartland Biscuit Thread™

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I mentioned my great idea of tea balls to a friend and they said, what like this...

I think I've discovered the world's best biscuit

These are about the only reason anyone needs to go into Ikea. They are so good they should be illegal.
Cheers.

They are so more-ish one box wouldn't last 5 minutes in a staff room.

I've been cursed to discover in the last couple of weeks that the lemon cookies/biscuits that the Girl Scouts are selling right now go lovely with the morning tea. I'll just eat one... or two... well, why not eight? What can it hurt?

And now Pista comes at me with these IKEA ginger motherfuckers?

Oh, my f**king waistline...

Always thought that it was the biccie equivalent of Lynx. Bought exclusively by elderly aunts at Christmas. Kind of like Shloer. Mind you on occasion with a nice Oolong (leaves not teabags) or Lapsang (ditto) it hits the spot. No dunking of course.

... :lol: ... terrible, buttered toast has to be dipped in Bihun soup and nowhere else ! Beyond that it depends on the day whether I prefer tea or coffee, but mostly it's coffee, Lavazza and stuff of course, a large mug with milk and sugar. Time and again, a lovely cup of cacao with sweet rusk dipped into does the trick to me as well ... ;D ...

If I were going to buy a packet of biscuits, and thinking back to when I've done just that, It would be milk chocolate Hobnobs.
"Nice" (the most ironic biscuit name ever) and Rich-Tea, can f**k right off.

I was going to say 'weirdos' but remembered where we are
toast should be dipped in soup or egg! or have cheese and baked beans on. or marmalade.

If you're dipping toast into any kind of drink it ought to be hot chocolate.

That works for me. Also, toasted bagel dipped in coffee, hot chocolate is great. If you wanna get really degen, spread Nutella (other chocolate spreads are available) on the bagel or toast prior to dipping.

I reckon the real reason the Sisters split wasn't that :von: didn't want to use their songs but that they dunked and he just wouldn't put up with it!
