I don't really do sugar or biscuits but....

I bought them once...grandchildren were visiting. I finished packet off by next day. This is why I never ever buy biscuits. I never by crisps either. Hot cross buns though....

I discovered that brand flying with Lufthansa - I thanked my lucky stars they couldn't be found in the US

But one day..... walking in Costco..... there they were... smiling at me, winking at me, calling my name.... cookies won!

I cannot stop eating these bloody lotus biscuit creams I bough from Morrison's

The thin God hates me

I lost my sweet tooth when I stopped taking sugar in my tea aged 17 and can’t eat anything sugary. However eating cheese like some eat chocolate means the thin god doesn’t like me either!

Im laughing, if only i could. I have coeliac disease which means i have to eat gluten free. Most gluten free biscuits are £1.20 for 8. ?

We have a plain Lotus biscuit every morning with our coffee, but they have been scarce recently. Plenty of the cream ones around.

Borders Dark Chocolate Gingers - to die for. Fortunately they are really big, so with a bit of effort I can stop at one...

Develop coeliac disease. Gluten free biscuits are usually pretty uninteresting / stale-tasting.

Of course you then may also go on to develop a husband who decides to make hobby out of baking delicious, fresh gluten free goodies.

The thin gods hate me too.

grannyrebel7 if you like Bahlsen biscuits, try Lidl's own brand, much cheaper, can't remember exact price, only buy fig rolls these days, 30% FRUIT, haha

We adore the plain lotus biccies! I call them "hairdresser biscuits" cos they're the ones always with a brew at hairdressers back on the day! Yumm-meeee!?

Better check for crackers under the sofa!

Those Lotus biscuits are called Speculaas in the Netherlands and they are the staple biscuit there so they remind me of our time there.

Nairn’s are on my side! I have persuaded myself on to their stem ginger oat biscuits and dark chocolate chip oat biscuits, with only 45 calories per biscuit. My basic metabolic rate, now that I am in my 70s, seems to be about 1320 calories, but I will carry on fighting hard for my health and my knees.

I have to take my husband to a local private hospital fairly often. Pre covid I'd stay in reception with a coffee from the machine and free biscoff biscuits, some made their way into my bag. Since covid of course I'm only allowed to pop in to use the loo then wait in the car and no coffee or biscuits

Thank goodness I am rarely tested by biscuits now. I suffered from type 2 Diabetes for several years and didn't eat sweet things much. Now that I no longer suffer diabetes I have not regained a sweet tooth. In fact I've lost sense of taste and smell almost completely Now all food just tastes of nothing . I have to rely on texture. Ready meals are not pleasant to me so I very rarely buy them.

Fox's Golden Crunch Creams have the same effect on me. I avoid the biscuit aisle.

I’m dog sitting at my daughters and she has custard creams in the cupboard….

JaneJudge Lotus biscuit are sneaky. In a coffee shop you will sometimes find one, a wrapped biscuit in your saucer. It winks at you. Eat one at your peril.

Do not be deceived.
They are NOT as innocent as they look.

Better still is the Biscoff spread straight from the jar

Found a recipe for mini Biscoff cheesecakes. So very easy I'm going to make them. They combine two of my favourites - biscoff and cream cheese.

I've given up chocolate until Easter so I am forced (forced, I tell you) to eat non-chocolate biscuits at the moment. B&M do a very good coconut biscuit, the type with a hole in the middle. You get lots for less than a pound. I can't remember the actual make but it was a fairly well known one. Mmm, very tasty, even without chocolate.

I like the lotus biscuits. I now have to try those cream ones. Thanks for leading me astray.?

I’ve just re-discovered Tunnocks Caramel Wafers!!
I can quote you the price in every supermarket - should get out more, I suppose?

Thank goodness I don't like cream biscuits

Only choc digestive, shortbread, cow biscuits - any biscuits really apart from cream or wafers

Those are in fact the best biscuits in the entire universe

Just eat them instead of meals lol

So very pleased to know that Soop is safely home with her sense of humour undiminished despite everything. Time for Sweetie Pie to step up and comfort her devotes owner - cats are really good at that, and her moment has come.

The rest of my life is now starting but it’s hard to know quite what it should look like. I am sure all will be revealed soon.

Must try those! I am partial to Bahlsen biscuits, but they're really expensive. £1.75 for only 9 biscuits in the pack. Really moorish!
