To never have biscuits in the house?

[BecclesB]

Me and my OH don't like biscuits so never buy them. So no-one is offered a biscuit when they come round.

So what's the problem ?

Ok.

I think it's polite and welcoming to have something to offer to anyone who pops in for a cup of tea or coffee. Do you offer something instead of biscuits?

In fact, the instant anyone knocks at the door my DC hopefully get the biscuit tin out...

🤣😂

We never have them either, me and the kids don’t like them, I don’t get the love for them, cake on the other hand 😏

Fair enough

I really fancy a cup of tea and some biscuits now.

We have to buy biscuits specially if people are staying.
Casual visitors don't get one.

Also do you really not like ANY biscuits? Have you tried them all?

I mean, they do chocolate covered biscuits....

Same at my childhood home. My Ddad just never bought treats - he didn't believe in buying them. Said it was a waste of money.

Not BU. Glad to hear that you are not contributing to food waste etc.

I get those Cornish crunchers from M&S. they’re not sweet, they’re made of cheese. They don’t always make it as far as being offered to anyone else though.

No, we never have biscuits or cake in either. We'd get some in we were expecting somebody but wouldn't have an to offer any guests turning up unannounced

If someone tries to bring biscuits in, do you turn them away or just insist they leave the biscuits outside?

WTF. Get on your quaint little English bicycle with the basket and pedal up to the High Street and get yourself a nice packet of chocolate digestives right now before the vicar rings your doorbell and shame is revealed to all the neighbours at the next Jumble Sale.

But my reason is because I love them and can't just stop at a couple so we don't have anything nice in the house as I don't have much self control

I don’t like coffee or whiskey or orange squash. I buy them for guests though. In case they’d ike them.

We never have them too. It's funny how people do "really😱 but what do you have with your tea!?" And then give up on me when I say that I not only don't eat biscuits more than couple of times a year (just not into them, cake is a different matter ha) but also don't drink black/milky tea😂😂😂

I'm with you, OP. We never have biscuits in the house.

Biscuitless house here too.

What will you do if the Queen pops in unexpectedly for a cup of tea?

We don’t eat biscuits or cake.
But there again no one ever visits us

Did do a too good to go mystery bag and gave most of it away or chucked it as it just wouldn’t get eaten.
Dh kept a lemon cake and said he thought he might eat a slice or 2.
I threw it out when I noticed through the unopened packaging that it was growing green freckles

I reckon I've got about twenty different packets of biscuits here

I went to IKEA yesterday to buy all the different types they have too

We like biscuits 🍪

• or let them eat
