I don't mean which Biscuiteer does it for you, I mean which biscuit makes your world that little bit sadder and more frightening when it isn't in your kitchen cupboard?

Tunnocks Teacakes for me.

There are several Biscuiteers to choose from. You could try a Des Custard Cream or perhaps a Bath Oliver P?

The family preference is Digestive, even the chocolate variety in times of high stress. I'm more of a RIch Tea person though. Always with a mug of tea, never on their own.

A very Alan Bennett thread Stunts.

I'm ashamed to admit that I'm not really a biscuity type of person.

But I used to have a real thing for Nice biscuits and mint Clubs.

I'm with the Tunnocks, but not if they're warm. Chocolate just cold enough to crack when bitten into. Or Barmouth biscuits. Are they still available anywhere?

Kit-Kats. The arse drops out of my world when I can't have a kit-kat.

I once won what I like to think of as the Kit-Kat lottery. It had no wafers, just solid chocolate. Definitely a Wonka-esque moment.

Thank you Scroat.
Can't have custard creams in the house on account of the fact that twelve are never enough.
Jen, shame on you.
Tried Kit Kat 'pop choc' sweeties today - avoid, Kit Kat fans, they are beyond disappointing. The chocolate is that shiny stuff.
There's nothing like the crack of a cool Tunnock.

Stunts, my sincerest apologies.

Even worse, I'm not a particularly big fan of chocolate either, although if I do feel the urge, it has to be at least 75% cocoa solids.

Cadbury's chocholate fingers - a whole box at a sitting, often.

I loathe mint chocolate, me. Green & Blacks Maya Gold is a favourite if it's chocolate quality you're after, but now that it's a million pounds a bar I have to settle for fond memories and another Tunnock.

I used to like Barmouth biscuits a lot.

Was in Barmouth a couple of weeks ago. A shite place full of fat people from the West Midlands. Very depressing. But we cycled from here to Dolgellau along the cycle track on the route of the disused railway. Eminently recommendable.

Not a cookie person, as we would call them, more of a vodka and soda or bourbon person.

On the other hand, bought some coconut macaroons at a regular bakery today. Not an uber-chic bakery, and not Frenchified macaroons.

I wrote "what we call cookies." Have no clue if you call anything a cookie, but trust me, what you call a biscuit is included in what we call a cookie. Don't know if you have any equivalent to what we call a biscuit.

I like beer, whisky, and wine. And maybe the odd chocolate hob nob, but they are quite expensive.

I like the biscuit that have raisins in them

Curlies Wurlies are great with a cup of tea

As is a Crunchy

Good name Crunchy.

Rikkor's confectioners would probably call it something like Panty Floss

Fig rolls, Nice biscuits (is it pronounced 'nice' or 'neece'?) or dark chocolate Hobnobs float my biscuity boat.

Reminds me now of one of my favourite childhood jokes:

"Next we have the garibaldi biscuit, named after the famous Italian patriot. Luigi Biscuit".
