Oh no you di'nt, lol! Seriously, my Nana was British, and as a child, I dreaded eating at her house. 30 years later, and 20 since her passing, I wish for one more tea at Nana's
ETA: Oh, I can't pass up the chance to enter a cookie/biscuit argument. I'm American to the core, and Oreos are nasty. Except for the Cakesters, but they discontinued those years ago. I hate you forever and will never forgive you, Nabisco!
Cakesters were gross. I don't know anyone that ever liked those things. That's why they were discontinued...duh.
Oh forget the Cakesters (altho that didn't stop me from eating all the packages at one time when I bought them). The Hostess mini cupcakes were where it's at.0 -

They don't taste as good in recent years as they did, say 30 years ago. I look at that package and at the cookie and can remember the taste of it dipped in some milk ... then I eat one and it's just not there anymore. So I don't waste my calories on them any longer cause they are now relagated to my 'don't buy it again' list.
And they are regulated to my "Always buy" list. In fact I have sent my boyfriend to the store specifically to pick up Oreos as I had somehow forgotten to buy them at the store. Of course, he willingly obliged.
After reading this thread I've also decided that this week I'll have to make my frozen raspberry cheesecake with oreo crust. Noms.
I have a friend who uses Oreos crushed up as a crumb crust for her cheese cake also. Tasted it once and thought it was pretty good. Too bad the Oreos fall apart in my milk when I dunk them otherwise I still might buy them.0 -

Well, sure. Brits, as you know, are known for their tasty food! British restaurants are on every corner of every city of every nation in the world, their food is so wonderful!
Right?
LOL!! So true. British food = UGH.
I do like fish and chips. And then there's.....ummmm....there's......

Not anymore.
They have Cinnamon Bun, Red Velvet Cake, Chocolate Filled Cupcake, & the list goes on & on.
We currently have all of those in our house - the Chocolate Filled Cupcake ones are AWESOME. We actually currently have 14 containers of Oreos (my husband goes a bit nuts when he sees limited editions). We had 8 packages when I went out of town, and they had almost doubled by the time I got back. Including three of the CFC variety.
Now. That. Is. Awesome!
This cereal needs to come back & so do these0 -

You've made your mind up, and you're just hoping a whole bunch of people agree with you so you can feel better about your preference. You're not hoping for a meaningful exchange. That's the very definition of a circlejerk, which is not useful.
And if you're trying to portray all those Brits over there as oh-so-sophisticated, well you're not doing a very good job. So take your "yummy biscuits" or whatever and get out. Don't talk *kitten* about my Oreos.
You rock!0 -
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?
Are you kidding? Oreo cookies are one of the best memories from my childhood! Eating the white filling then dunking the cookies in milk was the best, especially on a hot summer day!.0 -

I don't like Jello and find it utterly repulsing but, I don't bother making a forum topic about it because everyone has their own opinions on food. None better than the other.
Those are the best!
Thank God those are only released around Christmas.
Right?! If they were always available I would be 9 trillion lbs.
