Hobnobs.


It's a biscuit I really like but actually don't buy that often.  I buy other favourites like choc digestives, custard creams and the ocassional lemon puff, but if there had to be just one choice....hobnobs it is.

Life without gingernuts dunked in coffee could not be borne...

However, if one needs to get work done on this desert island then one needs Tunnocks Caramel Wafers...

And I'm with Sudanpan, actually - Dr Karg's.   :yum:  Posh hard tack with flavour, fills you up and keeps you 'fuller longer' (to coin a phrase)

Ok, now I need more info... am I on the desert island alone?  In which case I choose Dr Kargs.  But if there are others there and I have to watch them eat other biscuits, then it has to be TUC / cheese savouries, because you can't watch someone eat one of those without needing to finish the packet for them :D

Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing

Ginger nuts.

One of the hardest things for me to have to do without since becoming gluten intolerant. I can't find gluten free ones and the recipe I tried turned out so hard that I had to soak them in a hot drink, not dunk them.
