Kit Kat included but no yellow snack bar and no chocolate fingers…that article shouldn’t even grace this thread.

123

Kit Kats are not a biscuit. :mad:

124

Bourbons & Oreos??? God help us

That’s a solid list Esteban, not sure about the Marylands but the rest are Top Top biscuits. I wouldn’t like to get drawn into a Top 5, I wouldn’t know where to start

127

I don’t believe that Oreos are that popular either, every shop I go into now seems to have them on special offer

128

I don’t know who eats them, they are rank.

129

ah I wouldn’t go so far as to say they are rank, they are extremely overrated. They are passable with a glass of milk.

130

A very underrated biscuit IMO which can always be purchased at a €1 a pack in most shops. I fucking love them with a cup of scald.

do you dip 'em or take a bite and a slug of tay? The mint/tea combination does something fancy in your mouth if you bite and take a slug (better than mint tea before any hippies stick their oar in).

133

Mint is a great flavour. Chocolate chip mint ice cream is the business.

134

ah fuck it. I haven’t had that in years. :clap::clap:

the mother used to get that in the Friday shop and had to stop because it’d be gone by dessert on Sunday.

Hold on there now a minute Fran, bourbons are a fine biscuit.

136

They do not need to be dipped, they melt beautifully in the mouth & a mouthful of scald washes them down wonderfully.
Best value biscuit on the market. :clap:

137

they are a fine biscuit, no doubt about it, they are the Stoke City of the biscuit world, not glamorous, underrated and looked down upon by purists. They get the job done, and their fans love them.

138

@Fran ?

Adjudicate you cunt.

Good choice, but I think they used to be nicer, quality possible reduced to reach corner the budget biscuit market

Please refer to my previous post on Bourbons

[QUOTE=“Fran, post: 934373, member: 110”]Bourbon Creams are atrocious and should only be consumed in times of ration or war (along with pink wafers), so by default smiley faces win.

You may not agree with the call but this is something I have very strong opinions on.[/QUOTE]
