Store VS name brands, which are your favourites, and in your opinion, do you think any stores version of a particular biscuit is better than the branded variety?

Is there an actual brand Bourbon biscuit? I don't think I've ever seen one that wasn't a stores own.

Bourbons and custard creams are like that, need to shop around to find the right ones.

I like bisquits!

Favourites include jaffa cakes, party rings, fruit shortcake and garibaldi.

I rarely buy them though because I can't be trusted and will eat an entire packet in one go

I usually buy branded when I do buy them though.

If I buy them I buy own brand

They normally get opened and forgotten about and go soft.

I may or may not have been conducting an ongoing study of the quality of Aldi's dark chocolate digestives for the last 18 months.......I've yet to draw a definitive conclusion so more study is needed- speaking of which, I think i might put the kettle on

Custard creams for me

My biscuit palate needs more training as I don't think there's much difference between shop or branded on those.

Party rings, are those the ones with the pink and yellow icing on them?

It's been so long...

I find hob nobs to be an average biscuit, but a chocolate covered hob nob is a great biscuit.

I like the taste of bakery cookies, but find them chewy rather than crunchy.
