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?

I asked my husband this just last night. Personally I will never touch a malted milk but the absolute worst is a lemon puff. Disgusting.

Rich tea

Two Abernethys sandwiched together with butter. Blissful.

Love a rich tea, best biscuits for dunking. Can't stand hobnobs, and the only decent digestive has Stilton on top

Fig rolls. Or Ginger Nuts. But then I hate figs and ginger.

Malted milk. So. Boring.

Bourbon cream biscuits, it's so bland!

Rich Tea are nice if you've been unwell and need something really plain and not too sweet.
My vote is for any of the bland, dry, cheap tasting offerings in a tub of Family Circle or similar.

Rich tea. My poor late DM, in a care home with dementia, would sometimes be given a Rich Tea with her afternoon cuppa. She couldn't speak much but the disappointment was writ large on her face.

Anything gluten free will put you off for life 😂 try a gluten free jaffa it will suck all the moisture out of your face. 3 years into my diagnosis I still haven’t found a decent biscuit.

@WellsAndThistles oh I love an Abernethy with butter and cheddar. Home Bargains sell them outside Scotland.

Empire biscuits - why celebrate slavery & oppression with every dunk 😳

Those danish biscuits in the tins that everyone seems to have at Christmas. Like shitty flavorless shortbread.

Let’s just face it; if I need a biscuit I need a biscuit and I’m not at all fussy.

What a pointless question?

It’s meant to be a bit of fun! What’s got your knickers in a twist? 😂🙈

Rich Tea.

Ooh I quite like the flavour of a rich tea. I feel like it satisfies something. I also don’t mind a garibaldi. I don’t get much out of Nice though. Feels empty and light.

Something gluten free. They manage to be both sickeningly sweet and hopelessly bland whilst tasting largely of disappointment.

I don't particularly like normal biscuits (although your Garibaldi is much nicer than your Peek Freans Trotsky Assortment), but GF ones are a whole world worse.

Arrowroot biscuits TASTE like cardboard. Awful 😖

In the U S they have something called a gram cracker which is pretty shit apparently.

What is arrowroot?

A Rich Tea, it's so meh.

Fig rolls are the worst. Texture of cake then fruity in the middle. Urgh.

Chocolate Rich Tea - it’s beyond yuck
