What is the most miserable biscuit in existence?

[noblegiraffe]

DH and I are not eating sweet stuff for January and today he commented that he was so fed up with it he would even want to eat a really crap biscuit, so we were debating what that would be.

He reckoned the worst biscuit would be a Nice biscuit, but I think I would much rather eat one of those than a Garibaldi.

Is there a biscuit even more disappointing, that you would be less likely to accept an offer of than a Garibaldi biscuit?

Garibaldi biscuits are the best. Absolutely top drawer.

Party rings. Yuk. The icing makes my teeth hurt. Or iced gems. I think I got sick after eating them at a party back in 1976 and have hated them ever since 🤮

Nope. Just don't like chocolate digestives. Funny though I can stomach an Oaties, Aldi's version of Hobnob, but would never eat the original!

Rich tea are the taste of a 70s childhood in biscuit form. A rich tea and a plastic cup of orange squash. Standard kid's refreshment where ever refreshments were served.

Definitely morning coffee, the dullest of biscuit and can only get one dunk before they fall apart

Can still remember the taste of those plastic beaker's 🤮

Rich Tea - tasteless

I like Rich Tea, Malted Milk and custard creams! Garibaldi are a bit crap for dunking so I'm not bothered about them. Nice aren't great. I also don't much like Hob Nobs and not overly fond of Bourbons, Oreos or Ginger Nuts. I just like biscuits in general really. Am particularly fond of Fig Rolls (are they even biscuits?), Fox's Chocolate Rings and Viennese and a good old milk chocolate Digestive. I haven't had a biscuit for months because I can't be trusted not to eat the whole packet

Tunnocks are the best! Especially the dark chocolate ones.

rich tea are great when you’ve had a stomach upset.

can’t believe some people butter digestive biscuits!

I hate water biscuits. I know they’re to go with cheese but they are so dry and tasteless.

I like rich tea dipped in hot drinks. I'd say custard creams, so sickly.

Haha before I even clicked in this thread my head was screaming NICE!
Good for the both of you giving up sweet things. I hope that there is a tasty packet of chocolate hibnob waiting for you both on the 1st Feb

Agree rich tea are a waste of calories. Bourbon not a great deal better.

A Marie biscuit. Thin and tasteless!

Custard creams 🤮

Arrowroot? I rather eat cardboard

I love Richtea - best dunker ever!

I could bin off the Nice.
But - is it Nice as in price or Nice as in peace

I’m more a nice / peace kinda girl!

anything with both chocolate and orange in it - BLEAH

A bourbon is the worst

Do they still make Marie or Arrowroot biscuits? Blandest of bland!

Rich Tea are the most bland boring biscuit ever! And Wiki says they have been going since 1891, how?

A Marie biscuit surely must be the most boring biscuit ever!

I live in Ireland and we have some real oddities. Kimberly are ginger ish flavour with a marshmallow centre. The ginger outers are sort of soft. I offered them to an American friend once and he said that it was actually expanding in his mouth - neither cookie nor cake 😂 And Mikado … my exH said he wasn’t sure wether to eat it or go down on it 😂

Plain digestive for me.

When I was a child, my mum used to buy Rich Tea biccies. We'd make runny icing, put it on the biscuit and then sprinkles while the icing was wet. Was tasty as I remember 😋

Party rings - look lovely but are like rock and tasteless. My now adult children would insist on them for parties and I'd find half eaten ones hidden behind cushions.

Bourbon cream. Dry, vaguely chocolate, vaguely sweet. dull.
