It's star shone briefly but very brightly. I can't stand the things now but it was love at first sight and for a time they were IT. <BR/><BR/>4: ginger nuts. It's just a good biscuit, BUT you can also crumble it in custard, which gets it onto the list above other good biscuits.<BR/><BR/>3: chocolate digestives. There's nothing like that sludge you can make in your mouth if you eat these really slowly. Yes, it really is just a mixture of saliva and biscuit, but birds do this so it's not unnatural or anything. What? Oh. Anyway.<BR/><BR/>2. Penguin. For the simple reason that I have undoubtedly eaten more of these than any other biscuit in my lifetime. I practically grew up on them, and took a whole packet out with me on my friday evening paper round as a lad.<BR/><BR/>1: A rhubarb and custard biscuit <I>that has not yet been invented!</I> Seriously. It could be incredible. You'd have a light, crunchy base, with a sliver of custard, some rhubarb, a bit more custard, and then a biscuit roof!

Firstly if you also enjoy a nice cup of tea and a biscuit then this book <A HREF="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nice-Cup-Tea-Sit-Down/dp/0316729175/ref=sr_1_1/026-9148904-3878849?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1185708109&sr=1-1" REL="nofollow">Nice Cup of Tea and a Sit Down</A> is worth a read.<BR/><BR/>Secondly I failed to mention the much underrated Rich Tea. It was a tough choice but in the end I felt there wasn't room for both the digestive and the rich tea in the same list. Its a top contender though and much like the ginger nut one which is almost impossible to enjoy without a good cuppa.Chopperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10288482906642697324noreply@blogger.com
