I certainly think so - amazing comfort food on a dreich afternoon.

I can take this one shortly: no, it isn’t!

NeutralJanet · 15/02/2020 14:35

Tunnocks caramel wafers are better.

JKScot4 · 15/02/2020 14:35

Shortbread and a cuppa is a must on a dreich day ☕️

You are absolutely correct! My friend brought me a huge box when she came down south to visit , didn't have the heart to tell her I could buy them in Waitrose !

AhoyMrBeaver · 15/02/2020 14:38

The dark chocolate ones are decent enough, but they're not really biscuits. Shortbread gets my vote.

Whatsnewpussyhat · 15/02/2020 14:38

Whilst they are tasty, I wouldn't class one as a biscuit.

Gammeldragz · 15/02/2020 14:39

Not a Biscuit

BirdieFriendBadge · 15/02/2020 14:39

No.

Bourbon is king.

maddiemookins16mum · 15/02/2020 14:40

Nope, a) it’s a cake and b) jam and cream rings are best.

Tunnocks caramel logs are far superior

I'm eating a Tunnocks Caramel Wafer right this second. And I cant decide between the wafer and the teacake! They are both in the top 3 for sure!

LifeBeginsNow · 15/02/2020 14:42

Party rings or crunch creams for me SmileBiscuit

thaimelon · 15/02/2020 14:43

I love a Tea Cake but best biscuit award goes to the chocolate rings from M&S. Mmm so chocolatey 😋

ExpletiveDelighted · 15/02/2020 14:44

The dark chocolate ones are nice, the caramel wafers are awful, worse than Kit Kat. You can't beat a plain chocolate digestive IMO.

DarkDarkNight · 15/02/2020 14:44

I like a Tunnocks Snowball, the biscuit just gets in the way of the marshmallow.

Gingerkittykat · 15/02/2020 14:49

Nope, I prefer snowballs where the chocolate is thinner and you don't have the slightly soggy biscuit base.

The king of biscuits has got to be the Tunnocks caramel log, the wafer is rubbish because it lacks the coconut topping.

HaveAtEm · 15/02/2020 14:51

Love them...but a jammy dodger or party ring just beat them out of my top spot. A trio of Tunnock/Dodger/party ring would be perfect 👌🏻

EmmiJay · 15/02/2020 14:54

Bleh! Hate those. Jammy Dodger or a Toffy Pop or a Fox's Round for me🤤

Marlena1 · 15/02/2020 14:56

Absolutely!!! Lots of close seconds tho

Raera · 15/02/2020 14:57

Nope, you're all wrong!
Chocolate hobnobs are the best

MikeUniformMike · 15/02/2020 14:58

Scottish oatcake is the best biscuit, followed by shortbread.
TT's are cakes in my mind but they are good.

WobblyLondoner · 15/02/2020 14:58

No. But Tunnocks' caramel wafers are. Smile

ChristmasCarcass · 15/02/2020 14:59

Nope!

Don’t even know where to start. Bahlson biscuits, party rings, chocolate hobnobs, Jaffa cakes, shortbread, chocolate covered shortbread, caramel chocolate digestives, crunch creams, ginger nuts, rich teas, bourbons, even dead fly biscuits. Tunnocks teacakes are rank. I bet you like wagon wheels too don’t you, you monster? Wink

NannyR · 15/02/2020 14:59

I love the caramel logs, haven't seen them on sale for ages but found them in B+M last week.

purrswhileheeats · 15/02/2020 15:01

Euww no they're horrible, in the yuck category with Penguins and Wagon Wheels 🤮
