Hi @Fran

What is your opinion of Fruit shortcakes?

2

Surprising tasty.

They don’t look too appetising and I’m not a big fan of dried fruit but these are tasty

Hi @Fran, h ow many Toffeepops is too many?

5

I have a very sweet tooth, so I’m probably the wrong person to ask but I would use the following scale;

2 Toffeepops - Satisfying

4 Toffeepops - Should probably stop there

6 Toffeepops - Glutenous

8 Toffeepops - YOU’VE EATEN THE WHOLE PACKET FOR FUCK SAKE

Fuck off, this is a thread for @Fran to answer questions about biscuits and nobody else

12

Fran and I speak for each other on most things, mate.

@Fran is the forums foremost authority on cheese and biscuits. Stick to selling olives you bearded freak

@Fran
what is your opinion of dunking ginger nuts in tea?

15

cheers, better to see him have a symbiotic relationship with you rather than the hooked nosed arsehole

@Mark Renton shall be my deputy on all things biscuits and cheese related.

I will have the casting vote if any conflicts arise however

@The Wild Colonial Bhoy , Timtams are vastly superior to Penguins but they are still well down the pecking order

@mickee321 , Ginger nuts are ideal for dunking in tea. They soak up plenty of tea whilst maintaining their shape

Favourite dipper @Fran, always thought Lincoln were very under rated in that function. Nice thoughtful balance between a good outcome and a soaked mess at the bottom of a ruined mug of tea?

@Fran
What are your thoughts on the humble Fig Roll?

The soaked mess is never desirable. Lincoln will give you that extra second or 2 to soak up more tea before reaching saturation point. Other notable biscuits for dunking include:

Digestives (chocolate optional)
Hob Nobs (chocolate optional)
Ginger Nuts (as discussed above)
