Shock Horror…one of the Biscuits was negligently facing the wrong way 
Should I ask for my money back because of the obvious lack of Quality Control?
The time to worry is when they are crumbled, and you cannot dunk them in your tea.

What’s worse is when you buy a packet of chocolate biscuits and find there is either missing or partially missing chocolate, with the chocolate to biscuit ratio falling below accepted nominal standards, or subject to unacceptable temperature conditions and melted in the packet. Sometimes two biscuits packed facing each other can be mitigated providing its not the chocolate sides touching as that can cause chocolate delamination.

I’ve bought these in the past, about four quid a box, tasty!
Mind you, I can imagine some miserable sods having a whinge up if they were to discover that most of the biscuits were intact!

I remember these when I was growing up. We couldn’t afford broken biscuits, we had to buy whole ones and break them up ourselves.

Ginger nuts is my passion so they can’t really face the wrong way and they’re tough to break.
All the old biscuits are the nicest anyway.
Custard creams.
Ginger nuts
Fig rolls.
Jaffa Cakes. …oops, are they biccies or cakes?

a man was eating his lunch on the train today, a sandwich baton with indiscernible filling and a packet of gourmet crisps at the same time, a bite of the baton then “crunch crunch” of the crisps and “rustle rustle” of the wrapper.
He was in the zone staring into space while he munched away. The annoying thing for me was that the packet of crisps had been opened upside down. I’m not sure why that was so disturbing.

I saw a headline the other day (clickbait) saying that people have finally discovered what the pattern on custard creams means.

A big thumbs up for Ginger nuts, truly biscuits of substance! 
Have you tried them topped with a little slice of cheddar?
I used to have a couple with a cup of strong morning coffee. Must get back into the habit!

No, never thought of that but as I love cheese it sounds quite naughty and tempting.
Bet I couldn’t dunk it though

I didn’t click on the clickbait, …
but apparently it’s a fern pattern that dates back to Victorian times when ferns were a design craze. The clickbait seems to be that the pattern on the biscuit symbolises friendship and good times. However, they apparently mean sincerity.

Actually you can! 
Just gently pinch the cheddar and the biscuit at the top between finger and thumb,a technique worth mastering.
Now you’ve made me want to lapse into old habits, got to pop over to the convenience shop later, how fortuitous!

I’m into chocolate digestives with or without a cuppa.
Irresistible yum

We are obviously kindred spirits in the world of chocolate biscuits. Chocolate biscuits should be kept in the fridge so the chocolate is nice a hard, not soft ot half melted. But definitely not dunked.

I have to eat sugar free biscuits, due to being diabetic which I take pills for.
These are some I buy.
The choc chip, marie & wafers are very edible, digestives are a bit bland & dry, not tried the others, our B&M haven’t got them,

I used to love jaffa cakes, I admit that I sometimes dunked them in tea! 
I found similar biscuits here once at a Lidl store, but not the same thing, unfortunately.
