That's good news. Then add "sopapillas" to the favorite biscuits. It's basicly a Mexican doughnut served with honey.

That's why they're called Jaffa Cakes, and not Jaffa Biscuits.

No contest. Big, fat home made cat head buttermilk biscuits still hot from the oven with loads of butter and fig preserves.

But if you really mean cookies/crackers; then graham crackers.

The first time I had "biscuit" in the US, it was served with "gravy" that was a kind of white sauce with bits of loose sausage meat in it.

But then I always try the local food, however strange it might be, when I'm travelling.

You can get Tuc and Jacobs Cream Crackers in the US (I've seen them and bought them a few times whe I lived over there)... those are crackers. And then most of us would say that Carr's Table Water Biscuits are technically crackers, and I used to buy those a lot.

Fig rolls are grim - like chewing pastry full of liquidised grandma

Those roll things are Barm cakes as in "arlav a chip barm"

Yanks are weird - lets face it cornbread is cake in all but name.

But Red! Yanks don't eat cornbread. It's a Southern thing.

LOL. From your past posts I know you've been here on hunting trips so I know you really know the difference. Just as I do.
