Favorite Bickies!

[Der Sensenmann]

Jammy dodgers personally. Though Arnotts' Arrowroots have a certain charm.

In Australia they also say "biscuit" rather than "cookie".

 

[Ultima Dragoon]

Cookies are biscuits.

And ANZAC Biscuits are my favourite.

Garibaldi. This picture doesn't really do it justice though.

To the cookie/biscuit experts: discuss the crumpet

 

[GoldEagle]

Chocolate Vienese are lovely. Some of them and a pint of milk makes an excellent movie watching snack

compared to​

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES PWN!!!!!111oneoneone

Now, I bet you $50 US that you can't tell which one is American, and which one is not.

Fly biscuits - delicious, although I tend not to dunk them. Chocholate Digestives don't get dunked either, Rich Tea or Nice are better for that, or Bourbons dunked just long enough so that the chocholate cream filling softens but doesn't melt in the tea.

Something that hasn't been mentioned is shortbread, my local shop does an excellent chocholate chip shortbread biscuit.

As for crumpets, all they need is toasting and a good dollop of butter then eat them hot....

Mmmmm, it's gotta be a toss up between the Jammie Dodger and the Toffee Pop.

 

[Kal'thzar]

jaffa cakes....

 

[Furiey]

Mmmm Jaffa Cakes and Jammie Dodgers. There are just too many good biccies to choose a favourite.

My family once had a very loud heated argument in the middle of Tesco over who had eaten the last Jammie Dodger, nobody won, we stopped when we realised what a big audience we had

 

[Urederra]

Becuase that biscuit WAS for doggies you ignoramus!

Yeah, I noticed the smilie and I noticed that it was for doggies.

I've just never bought a cookie for doggies, maybe because I have never looked for them in the supermarket. I guess you can find that type of cookies in some places in the first world, but I doubt you can find them, say, in Mexico or Venezuela.

Brand specific? What the hell you on about?

Well, more than brand specific, I would say they are country specific. As you can see by the US poster comments, most of them are not available in the US. I can also tell that they are not available in Spain and my guess is that nor in France, Germany, etc.

I'd have to say Chocolate Hobnobs

 

[Masquerouge]

Speculos! (Or whatever spelling you see fit). Best ever.

 

[BCLG100]

I'm guessing you haven't seen Peter Kay?
As I remember he thinks Rich Tea are pathetic dunkers. Whereas Hob-nobs are the Marines of the dunking world.
Hob-nobs: "Is that all you've got?? Dunk me again!!"
Chocolate digestives are also bad dunkers because the chocolate melts off. I like bourbons or some other form of cream for dunking personally. But then I have far too much experience. During sixth-form I got through about a pack of biscuits a day.

The British vs. American cookie is a little more complicated as well. We have cookies too. So, for example, chocolate chip is still a cookie, not a biscuit. I guess this is mainly because we've been Americanised.

omg just thinking about that 'DUNK ME' scene makes me chuckle

 

[salty mud]

I really don't like biscuits or cookies.

Your kind is not welcome here :thumbdown

 

[skadistic]

Girl scout cookies -- Samoa's and Thin Mints.

 

[Maniacal]

I have had biscuits a couple of times, don't remember what they were, some home made thing somewhere.

The Peanut Butter ones are good, also

 

[mrtn]

Pepparkaka. Google image search seems to imply that this is the same (or similar) as a ginger biscuit.
Voted other.

 

[FriendlyFire]

Digestive:

WT ???? We call them wheat biskets in Australia

 

[Ultima Dragoon]

We do? I've always called them digestive biscuits. 0.o
