In response to SEGAMark's plea for more variation in the "off Topic" section of the website let's have a discussion about the humble biscuit (Or "cookie" to you lot over the pond). What is your favourite type of biscuit? Where do you normally buy your biscuits? What's your preferred brand? Do you like to dunk them into tea? Discuss!

I'm quite partial to some chocolate digestives, and those little fruit shortcake biscuits. I think my favourite biscuits are Oreos ^_^ I'm not usually a dunker but Oreos with milk is awesome.

Even though Twix has biscuit in it, I wouldn't consider it a biscuit. I'm still not sure about what a Jaffa Cake is...

Same here, it's just like a kit-kat.

It was decided under UK tax law that it is indeed a cake.

So we have to pay more for it? Sucks, can't remember the last time I ate a Jaffa Cake.

Twix are hella good (I'm quite fond of the Twix PB variation). On the US wrapper (idk if it's different across the Atlantic), it's called a "cookie bar," so it's kinda 50-50.

If I have to go with an actual cookie/biscuit, I'd say Oreos. I could probably easily eat a whole case on my own. I dunk them in milk with a spoon 'cause I'm awesome like that. :biggrin:
