Best is choco leibniz. The German one where the chocolate overhangs the biscuit. If you bring it to a meet you’re getting invited again probably.

The worst is ginger nuts. I love ginger in so many ways but not when it’s overpowering in biscuit form

For shame.. Such minty deliciousness... The crisp foil wrapper uncovering a silky smooth centre. Let it melt in your mouth til you feel the mint dripping on your tongue..one is never enough.

Best is those big ass double chocolate chip cookies from lidl.

Worst ones are ginger yolks but I'll still eat them if it's all that's there.

The best are probably the M&S Belgian chocolate biccies, theres usually a box around Christmas its never regifted, second, Tesco's chocolate ginger's, the worst, it's hard to know as butter and raspberry jam makes the plain one good, except maybe Arrowroot

The best biscuit has to be the original Jacobs Figrolls as devised by Jim Figerty who solely knew, according to the 1960s advert, how Jacobs did it.

The worst has to be the cheap figroll imitations, that are sickly sweet through being loaded with fructose and other sugars, and are simply a tube of biscuit chopped into small segments; they are awful.

However, Jacobs Figrolls are becoming exorbitantly expensive and partially dried figs from MiddleEast countries and North Africa are available from some shops: about £4 for 500g.

Extremely tasty .

Not a fan of the Irish biscuit selection in the shops

most of them are sandstorm dry and too sweet, worst is probably the Hobnobs and the most edible the dark chocolate digestive.

McVities Digestive biscuit as it existed, decades ago is a different product to the current iteration, the lower quality constituents probably being driven by cost considerations rather than the maintenance of high quality.

McVities Digestive today is a pale imitation of my formerly favourite dunking biscuit, and it is still a costlier product than others of a similar mediocre quality.

The current product that most resembles the old McVities Digestive is the Hobnob that definitely does use high quality ingredients that are individually palatable.

There are very few original biscuits, all taking shortcuts with flavour quality and size and prices bumped up. I do love a shortbread or Viscount. Nom.
