Hold on, I need to return to this… How on earth have several people commented on that ranking, and then offered their own versions, without pointing out that a Madeleine is a fucking cake and not a biscuit? Jaffa Cakes too, while we’re at it.
Calling a Madeleine a biscuit is just wild, counter factual nonsense and I couldn’t be more angry about it if I tried.
Custard Creams deserve to be higher on the list. Extremely munchable cheap biscuit. I’d position them between first class and average joe. the bottom barrel ranking is taking the piss.
On brand tweet, eating weetabix in place of biscuits is definitely the behaviour of someone who has been economically abused and is at their lowest ebb, spiritually and financially.
Not a biscuit, but Trios were (are?) elite. Somebody told me they’re back on shelves but I’ve never seen them. And they probably won’t be the same as how I remember them during my childhood.
In terms of pure biscuit, these new chocolate brownie hobnobs are fucking top.
