loaf digestives were different to normal digestives, somehow. finer grained or something. regardless, you got them in cracker collections, and i would never put cheese on a regular digestive.

Here's some Australian biscuits:


I'm not the biggest fan of these but people loving love them and they're some kind of Australian icon. Since the rest of "our" food is stolen from other countries (pavlova, meat pie) I guess we gotta be proud of something


noooooooooice


bland and boring but when I was sick as a kid this is all my Mum would give me to eat

BECAUSE Australia is so lovely and we don't have nearly as much variety as NZ despite NZ being a smaller countries with less fatties who gorge themselves on bikkies all day.. NZ Biscuits





Anyway I saved the best til last. The best loving bikkies in this country.

As a practical dual-national (Dad American, Mom English), I am above the petty biscuit-semantics nationalism. :smug:

Also, World Market carries a number of British cookies, like Digestives and Jammie Dodgers and such. They also carry Heinz Tomato Soup and Heinz Baked Beans, which I highly recommend to everyone as they are vastly better than the standard American versions of those products.

You know you can still get these right? I have some in my cracker bin. They are particularly good with cheese and I think might be in the cracker section, not biscuits...maybe?

Also I like this time of year because these bad boys are released into the shops



And they are p. good

They come out around Easter and they're the best. Also someone asked if something was a hamburger with an omelette on top. Nope - it's a sausage pattie with a folded egg on top. We put them between "biscuits" and eat them for breakfast on the go because we're too busy here in America to sit down and eat ourself into a heart attack without driving while we do it.

yeah I think their original marketing thing was "eat one after dinner to help with your digestion" but I could be imagining that purely because that's the kind of dumb poo poo marketing would do

imagine going through life without having shapes. what a hosed up country America is

Over here you can grab a pack of around 40 biscuits for about £1 odd

Each one is probably 65 calories, budget shoppers eat your heart out! Food for the whole week.
