Imagine a plate with all the different varieties of biscuits on it. Which would be your first choice and which one would you leave until there was nothing else? My first would be a Nice ( not easy to find these days) and I would leave the chocolate bourbon on the plate.

I’m rather partial to a lemon puff, but I’m also rather contrary so another day it could be a plain chocolate digestive or today’s treat a fortnum and mason stem ginger.

When Americans say ‘biscuits’, what do they mean - are they savoury?

They are their version of scones and they are served at breakfast with “gravy” . But I haven’t been to the US for years

Tesco have got lovely lemon shortbread fingers atm. Mind you, they are £2 a packet, but really good quality.

Nice and iced rings would be my leave on the plate, very surprised that Nice would be a first choice.

First choice would be chocolate digestive or if alone and dunking would be a rich tea.

Anything coated with thick chocolate (Fox’s are good) but as a T2diabetic I hardly eat them. Would not leave any on my plate 😂😂

They also have delicious chocolate chip shortbread but only 6 in a packet for £1.40. Used to be 9.

Border dark chocolate gingers. But am also happy to settle for plain digestives and Aldi malted milks.

Shortbread and malted milk biscuits would be eaten first. I would leave anything with cream in the middle.

I'd choose a custard cream and leave the fig roll.

Tunnocks caramel wafers for me. I find Hobnobs too sweet.
DGSs love those tiny iced rings.
