Desert Island Biscuits - what's yours?
« on: January 18, 2014, 01:44:44 pm »
Dan and I have been debating whether the digestive bicuit part of a McVities Chocolate Digestive is the same recipe as a plain McVities Digestive - I say "no", he says "yes".

At lunchtime, this discussion morphed into "If you were on a desert island and could only have one type of biscuit, what would it be? Assume tea and coffee is available; biscuits only so no Jaffa cakes or chocolate bars."

So what's yours?

As I said on FB, good old Scottish Shortbread - able to be 'dunked' in the tea and coffee provided if you are quick about it  :excited:
