Brits eat limp bacon. Yuk. Any good 'Murican knows that bacon is served crispy!
And biscuits? Best way I know to eat biscuits is with sausage gravy slathered all over them.

What is so good about a sugary, black coloured biscuit with sugary white filling, neither having any flavour? Maybe you poor thing, have never tried yummy biscuits?
LOL - can we discuss Britain's contribution of Hobnobs and Jaffa Cakes? I wouldn't say you're doing much better with making tasty processed cookies. (and for the record, I don't think Oreos are awesome, either.)0 -
I'm British and I love an Oreo! I'm surprised that they aren't really high in calories, I find a Custard Cream is higher and that's as British as the Queen
.
I just wish we got all the flavours of Oreos I hear my American friends talk about!0 -

Jaffa cakes are cakes not biscuits yo. There's been litigation and stuff on the point.
Hob nobs are pretty rank as well. Not as bad as Oreos but I would definitely kick someone out of bed for eating them.0 -

Haha yes... I've heard all about the biscuit controversy. This was funny - http://metro.co.uk/2015/05/25/jaffa-cakes-are-not-cakes-10-reasons-why-the-jaffa-is-a-biscuit-5194703/
I hold to my belief that Jaffa Cakes are cookies/biscuits... and TERRIBLE ones at that.

How rude. I am rather partial to Jaffa Cakes so you may have to get taken out by a surreptitious sniper hit.
That said I do much prefer Tunnock's Tea Cakes. They are way nicer than Oreos which are just glorified rice cakes.

Yeah, no. Have to back rice cakes over celery on this one.
Celery = bitter yucky stringy
Rice cake = bland dusty
Bland wins over bitter every time. Plus, it doesn't interfere as much with the taste of the peanut butter.
Personally, I'd rather use a Wasa thin bread or Ryvita or similar over either. I'll take the minimal calorie hit.0 -
