How do you stop yourself half way through a pack of hobnobs?
I can't buy them where I live, and when I can get people to bring them, I like to make them last as long as I can.
But you know - when Im sitting down with a nice cup of PG tips, and a pack of choccy hob nobs, I just have to scoff the lot.
Your advice on biscuit control techniques would be appreciated.

What was the point at which you decided tea and biscuits needed a website?
Why do you think your site has recently gained so much media acclaim?
Worst Biscuit Ever?
Daddy or Chips?
Biscuits - for all, or discriminatory?
Worst question you've been asked?
And the Standard Interview Four Questions:
*What exactly is the problem?
*So what exactly is the solution?
*What are the politicians doing about it?
*And how much will it cost?
Also congratulations on doing so well with your site! >

Spit or swallow?
When offered custard cream or garibaldi I always opt for the custard cream safe in the knowledge that I will not be eating any dead flies which I would have to cough into my handkerchief whilst distracting my hostess by complimenting her upon her unusual teapot. Do you have a mental strategy for dealing with the dead fly/garibaldi association and if you were to find that you were eating a real dead fly would you spit or swallow? Would your answer differ if you were in polite company?

Garibaldi ettiquette
I like to eat a whole 'sheet' of Garibaldi at one go (rather than snapping it off into smaller individual pieces along the scored lines) as I consider this to be one biscuit.
Is this the correct procedure?

Underpants Toast
Nicey,
Underpants Toast was a life-changing discovery for me, and for the past year or so, it has been my all-consuming passion. It has gotten to the point where people lock down their breadboxes when I enter a room.
My dilemma is, after a year of joyously prancing my fingers about while wearing toast and mayo, the magic has finally faded. I need an exciting new food item to play with at the most inappropriate moments. I did some experiments with soups and boullions, but as you can imagine, results were less than satisfying.
Help? Please?

I recommend Mojo sauce, found mostly in Lanzarote. It comes in green and red.
But then we all do, if shagging in a poppy field.

Shortbread is it a cake or a biscuit?
Are Cookies considered biscuits?
What are those 'biscuits' you see on american TV, that they eat with food like fried chicken?
Is a biscuit, in the current contex, anything you can dunk in your cuppa? if so, what about toast?
What are Flapjacks to be considered as?
I know that Bickys are the best to dunk in your tea, but what about other baked goods during your brake?
Surly Tea-Brake should be a brake from tea, therefore I belive we should rename it to Work-Brake. Your Opinon?

Bars or biscuits? And was it just me or did they always taste stale? Who would win in a 3-way punch-up; the United, the Breakaway or the Trio?

When a tramps stops you and asks for 10p towards a cup of tea
do you give it to him?
are you ever tempted to give him advice?
edit > about biscuits I mean, not hairstlyes or mortgages etc.
or do you mumble something and point down the street and look at your watch, or maybe shout look at the size of that can of special brew, point and run away, or something.

My French teacher at school
told us that the word biscuit derived from the French for 'baked twice'. According to him a double baking process was traditionally employed in biscuit making - hence the name.
Can you enlighten me further? It's always sounded pretty unlikely, I mean, who ever heard of having to bake a biscuit twice? Perhaps your website could include a history of the biscuit and the antecedence of the name.
Oh, and are Brandy snaps due a revival any time soon? I loved them.

HONK, PARP
on nicecupofetc you compare the penguin to the tim tam. is there a line to be drawn between such biscuit-esque confectionery as the penguin and the slightly less biscuity-but-still-nearly-the-same-snack-genre bars as "crunch" bars, "blue riband" or even "sesame snaps" and if so where is it that aforementioned line could be considered.

i read your fig biscuits reviews, and it made me tinkle (in my head)
did the "brains" behind nutri-grain bars steal the idea of a fig biscuit and just make it bigger, fruitier, and a hell of a lot more expensive?

Posh biccies
Which are better- Bahlsen Choco Leibniz or the Cadbury Signature range. I prefer Bahlsen cos they make a clinky noise in the packet, like a box of chalk. And would you rather have a small packet of expensive biccies, or a big packet of cheaper ones?
