Soft marshmallow on a biscuit base
a distinctive texture between a biscuit, scone, and pancake.
Can't really go just by the name, as then shortbread could never be a biscuit.
Or maybe we should go just by the name:
"Is it cooked twice? If no it can't be a biscuit."
I dont cook them i just eat them.

It's my second least favourite.
Last being, of course, anything made out of
Because it was first sold in London and it has grated cheese on top?

It is said the original was made with curd cheese, but the current cheeseless variety is so called as the coconut looks like grated cheese.
@noseall Now, talking about baked goods, tell us all about the wonderful oatcake!
I worked Staffs and East Mids. for a good while and Mrs S's folks lived in ST5 near the factory, so I've had a fair few for lunch!
They aren't half cracking!

Oats are great!
They're a superfood.
Where do I start? They have a high content of fibre, especially beta-glucan, which is soluble.
This slows transit, improving digestion, keeping blood sugar more steady, with fewer spikes and troughs. It also has high content of protein and complex carbs, offering sustained energy.
Beta glucan also lowers bad (LDL) cholesterol. Oats also contain anti-oxidants called Avenanthramides which are anti-inflammatory.
Oats also contain Vitamins B1 and B5 and loads of minerals I can't recall.
Basically, they're good for you, but not the ones buggered about with by producers with added stuff.
The plain oats are best.
Milk Chocolate are morish because they are sickly, plain are just plain!
McVities biscuits give me heartburn, marks and sparks don't have any ill after effects.
Every biscuit is able to be dunked if your of that ilk, I am.
Chocolate Hob Nobs and a cup of coffee is dunking heaven.
You can't dunk them!
Why?
