I've always pronounced Nice biscuits as 'Nice' but a guy at work swears they're pronounced 'Nice'. So 'Nice' or 'Nice' - which is it?

Made me think, on biscuits why do they find it necessary to stamp the name on them. Nice, Digestive, Rich Tea etc?

They ought to do it on sausages, cabbages etc to stop any confusion

Personally I don't like them but.. dear old wiki knows about them

Nice biscuit

From Wikipedia,

Type Biscuit

Main ingredient Coconut flavouring

A Nice biscuit is a coconut-flavoured biscuit. It is thin, rectangular in shape, with rounded bumps on the edges, and lightly covered with a scattering of large sugar crystals, often with the word "NICE" imprinted on top in sans-serif capital letters. It is often served as an accompaniment to hot drinks, such as tea. The name probably derives from the city of Nice in the south of France.[1]

A Nice biscuit was listed in an Army and Navy Co-operative Society price list in 1895.[2] British company Huntley & Palmers made a Nice biscuit as early as 1904.[3] The Australian company Arnott's Biscuits also claims to have invented the Nice biscuit.[1] Nice biscuits are sold by various companies under different brand names in most of the British Commonwealth as well as other countries.

so there ya have it - it's Nice as in the French city - Neece

My Google search says....

The biscuits were originally known as 'faite à Nice' which sort of translates as 'made at Nice', thus pronounced like "niece"
