I keep a spoon on hand for a reason! Also, the day I first bit into an oreo manufactured at a different plant and realized their recipe is different depending on where it was made, I almost cried. The difference affects how the cookie melts. Imagine an oreo that just refuses to break down like a block of cement with a semi-fake chocolate flavor. I was so angry, I was ready to write a letter until I google'd and found out I could still get the original recipe if I shopped at certain stores.

I think that's why ,in the USA in particular..we tend to specifically categorize between breads,rolls,biscuits(puffy breads) ,then crackers - made mostly of a flour base(but may have flavorings that are not in themselves with a sweetness) and then from "cookies"- which usually have sweetness,flooring ,icing or chocolate coverings or fillings .There are always exceptions,however,such as vanilla wafers and graham crackers for example.I think that's what confuses most Brits and Americans basically about each other's terminologies....our eating traditions and descriptives.
@221b-Maker-Street Жыл бұрын
We reserve the word cracker purely for _savoury_ biscuits. People will often have a snack of eg 'cheese and crackers' part way through the evening if they've dined early, or if eating out, people may choose 'cheese and biscuits' instead of a pudding at the end of their meal. A biscuit here is any sweet baked, crisp or crunchy item, baked from a dough. Cookies however are soft - you can _bend_ them. You cannot bend British biscuits, they'd snap in two!

I remember when I was a child, my aunt taught me to crumble crackers in a cup of tea and scoop them out with a spoon like eating a bowl of cereal. I secretly do it as an adult on rainy days. The warm comfort on those chilly rainy days.

Biscuits turn soft when they go stale, cakes turn hard. So, jaffa cakes are cakes.

Yep. I think the manufacturers went to court to decide it. The result was that they are cakes.

oh, an opened biscuit packet that has turned soft is an abomination to eat, especially if you were looking forward to your newly found snack.

The best biscuits/cookies to dip in tea are gingersnaps. Perfect combo. We have the fig biscuits in the US. Fig Newtons are a classic. The cookie with the marshmallow and chocolate is also a classic -- Mallowmars. Regional names for this cookie are whippets, krembos and pinwheels.

hah, I know the "lotus" , bicoffs or speculoos ones. They are the most common you get in Luxembougish restaurants , cafés etc. when ordering a tea, coffee or hot chocolate. But Lotus is a belgian company, so I'm not surprised we have them here so much, but genuinely so that they are in Britain. And 6:00 3 years old here too I guess, Iike to dip allkind of sweet bicuits (or muesli bars) in yoghurt :) And I want a teakace now. We have them too, called "mellow cakes", but I LOVE them

One of my fondest memories of my year in England is drinking tea and eating biscuits in the afternoon. It's a custom I took with me going back to Brazil and still do it living now in Germany. My favourite ones are the hobnobs (which a brand in Germany called Hobbits - so double fun eating them) closed followed to shortbreads. Jaffa cakes are great, too! My kids hate them. So more for me! :-D

@@sk39706 lol, part of me appreciates being free from that danger! There's a large international NSA supermarket an hour or so from me, in CT (I'm in Rhody). I've only been once, and was trying to be good, but next time, I think I'll go every aisle, just to see (I generally don't eat lots of processed foods). Funnily enough, for a while we were getting Tim Tams at the local supermarket (cause sailing), and I was able to get some Israeli Kliks that ny friends in Chicago hadn't seen before (they're always out now). But the Tim Tams, sadly, have disappeared. It just makes me enjoy the things I do find more! 🙂
