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?

Eh! Garibaldi are the best, but only from Waitrose, the other brands taste too synthetic and cheap. I actually scoffed a whole pack today.

I like Nice too, however digestives and shorties/malted milk are bottom of the list and a waste of money 🤮

My absolute faves were the Sports biscuits, but Fox stopped production a few years ago😔

Dead fly biscuits, aka Garibaldi. Fig rolls. And Oreos. All dreadful

Fig rolls....disgusting 🤢

As far as I know there's still one stuffed down the back of my auntie's sofa from 50 years ago!

I love Garibaldis.
Nice are absolutely horrible. never liked them.

🤣🤣🤣

Taste of cupboard- I know exactly what you mean!

remainder stock?

Marietta is the Father Stone of biscuits.

I go out of my way to hunt for Garibaldi cos many shops don't sell them. It's like a biscuit version of a Chorley cake. I think they're great.
My least favourite (in each category):
chocolate - penguin
plain - rich tea
other - kellogs nutrigrain

Ah now…leave the humble marietta alone. Nice with a bit of butter on it. ☺️

Yes, but I wonder how many people outside Lancashire know what a Chorley cake is even?

Malted Milk.

I used to buy Nice biscuits for my elderly mum. I didn’t actually mind them. As a kid and most of my adult life I loved biscuits but I’ve found over the last couple of years I’ve gone off them as a whole and rarely buy any kind now.

I forgot about Hobnobs, I really hate them yet they seem so popular.

Wagonwheels....ghastly fake chocolate and a horrible chewy ,crumbly texture.Wee nightmares!

I grew up in Berkshire and know what a Chorley cake is. They are much nicer than Eccles cakes.

I used to love Wagon Wheels and then I made the totally sound decision to eat one while cycling down a quiet country road. I hit a pothole and started to swerve. I grabbed at my wagon wheel and went over the handlebars. A following motorist stopped, just looked at me crawling to the side of the road dragging my bike with me and drove off. To add insult to significant road rash my wagon wheel fell in a puddle and was not salvageable.

They taste of blood and stupidity to me now.

Pink wafer biscuits. Yuk!

Custard Cream or a Lemon Puff 😖

I quite like a Rich Tea or choc Digestive. Love Shortcake or Bourbon

Rich tea biscuits. Spawn of the devil.

Rich Tea

Custard creams are rank

Any biscuit you dip in tea and it falls in.

Definitely rich tea though

There's a definite art to dunking. I find that Tesco Bourbons can withstand a second or two longer in tea than Morrisons bourbons before disintegrating.
we buy tesco only now because their bourbons are vegan and DS is lactose intolerant

I've changed my mind.. I did say custard cream but I've just remembered party rings!

Those pink and white ' party rings ' are gross and remind me of school fetes and the like because they are ' cheap and cheerful ' !
