Slightly Scared Of anyone who Says Rich Tea, do you Have Taste buds?

Gotta be bourbon for me. Also partial to a chocolate hobnob but I think that's just marginally too posh to be considered "everyday".

Does anyone remember Milk & Honey Creams? They were around in the 1970s. A sort of hybrid of Jammy Dodgers (only with honey instead of jam) and custard creams. Mmm.

I enjoy nothing in a biscuit more than scraping the chocolate splodge centre of a bourbon with my upper teeth after gently splitting the biscuit slices neatly in two. A custard cream might carry the same process to it, but for me it's too squeaky clean and lacking the dark heart of its dangerously tasty cousin.

Textbook.

I think I'd go bourbon. Although, when the mood takes me, I do enjoy the occasional (dark) chocolate digestive. Principally with tea for dunking purposes.

I don't really eat biscuits because when I do I always eat the whole packet!

For my every now and then biscuit binge it's foxes viennese fingers, foxes cream crunch, custard creams or bourbons!

I do enjoy eating a Christmas biscuit tin in December as well...

You utter, utter *******s. Have pity on a Coeliac, who has to make do with shitty gluten-free replicas of the glorious biscuits you are all slavering over in this thread.
It's bad enough that a gluten-free Custard cream tastes like wet cardboard, but the manufacturers compound the insult by charging three times the price of ordinary biscuits.

Now I know you're just taking the biscuit.

It's ALL about the classic Hob Nob. A delight with tea, a joy with coffee and a treat on it's own.
 


Stretching the bounds of "everyday" but what about M&S "Extremely Chocolately" shortbreads - advertised as "more chocolate than biscuit". Waitrose sell a very similar version - I suspect a conspiracy and that they are made at the same factory.

Yes- I remember them. The honey was a chewy consistency but nice enough.

Bourbon is definitely my "go to" biscuit, or a chocolate hob-nob if I'm after something a bit FANCY.

Malted Milk, Lincoln, Shortbread.

If its got oats in its a cake.

Used to love lincoln biscuits but can't seem to get hold of them anymore!

Everyday biscuits would be McVities Digestive and for special occasions, shortbread fingers (although it doesn't have to be that special!)
