..For the record guys, (so I don't feel like an idiot >_>) a biscuit in America is basically like a crumpet with a different texture. XD

o_o What you call biscuit in the UK, we call cookie.

..Terms are confusing.

Hence why I wrote this in the original post:

Hob Nob anyone?

I've never been a fan of plain Hob Nobs, however the chocolate ones are amazing.

I like the black part of an Oreo, but that white stuff in the middle is a horrible little curd that puts me off them. If the black parts came on their own I'd be more tempted.

My favourite is the fruit shortcake which are probably so bad for you because of all the grease. The blackbirds seem quite partial too, so they also cover as bird feed.
Tic Tac, sir?

Fixed.

I have to say I'm quite impartial to Oreos as well, though I can happily get through an entire packet of chocolate digestives in one sitting and still look my svelte self.

Oreo's are great, especially in a milkshake! Best milkshake I ever had was basically Oreo's and milk with whipped cream on top, decorated with mini-Oreo's. Absolutely divine.

In terms of traditional biscuits though, you can't go wrong with a few bourbons. Not bland, great for dipping.

Cookies are great, but not if you buy the 'value' versions in supermarkets. It's hardly a chocolate chip cookie when there are only two chips in the actual biscuit. These things destroy lives.
