If Her Majesty’s government doesn’t class a Jaffa Cake as a biscuit, then neither should we.[/QUOTE]

fran, what are the best vegan friendly biscuits

103

Malted Milk have always left me somewhat unsatisfied so I wouldn’t call them underrated. They’re good enough to plug a hole in times of need however

104

The vegan lifestyle should be discouraged at all times

105

wtf?

106

@Fran i am very fond of TimeOut bars with a cup of scald. Now i know they are a bar more so than a biscuit but can you point me in the direction of a similar wafer/chocolate biscuit for consumption with cups of scald please?

107

Disco biscuits, Tase.

108

what kind of tea mate?

109

I’m afraid to answer this question as your recent lifestyle change & my answer could upset you.

110

Possibly a pink snack or the more adventurous Tunnocks caramel wafer

111

Not a fan of pink snacks but i will certainly try the Tunnocks Caramel biscuits. Cheers @Fran :clap:

I got them down my local Tesco this evening. Took three out for my last cup of tea of the day and had to go back for another 3. Am half debating going for thirds

FAO @Fran, what say you?

WHAT IS IRELAND’S favourite biscuit, you ask?

Well, biscuit sales figures have just been released by Tesco – laying Ireland’s what-to-have-with-a-cup-of-tea habits bare for all to see.

In reverse order, Ireland’s biggest-selling biscuits are…

[SIZE=4]10. Custard creams[/SIZE]

9. Digestives (own brand)

8. Ginger Nuts

7. Kit Kat

6. Bourbon Creams

5. Rich Tea

4. Digestive (McVities)

3. Oreo

2. Chocolate chip cookies

1. Chocolate digestives

119

I am shocked and appalled to see Oreos so high on the list, a very average biscuit which stick to your teeth

120

fucking rich tea… no good without butter.
