Bourbon Creams. Sh1te more like!

quad_red · 10-09-2008 3:52pm

Kimberly.

Two pieces of chalky cardboard with a blob of disgusting mock cream in the middle.

Euck!

spurious · 10-09-2008 3:53pm

'Nice' are disgusting. Their name is a lie.

star-pants · 10-09-2008 3:55pm

lol I like all the previous mentioned biscuits....
polo / digestive / marietta / lincoln / jammy dodgers / custard creams / bourbon creams / gingernuts / Nice... mmmm
But I agree - Fox's biscuits are gack.
And same iccky with coffee biscuits, like Cafe Noir. I don't like Coconut Creams or Party Rings etc..

Dlite · 10-09-2008 3:56pm

The rings with "jam" in the middle... that's not jam. Rotten.

Toto Wolfcastle · 10-09-2008 3:58pm

Polo are awful. I hate custard creams too. Awful things.

Jumpy · 10-09-2008 4:03pm

The Australian SAO

kmick · 10-09-2008 4:04pm

Fig rolls - I know how they get the figs in there - they squeeze them in from their an-us.

star-pants · 10-09-2008 4:07pm

lol I like fig rolls.
trying to think what I don't like..apart from Foxs...
not a big fan of fruit shorties

JaneyMc · 10-09-2008 4:07pm

Ginger nuts, jaffa cakes. I can't remember the name of a certain kind but it might be lemon puffs. They are RANK.

shoelaceface · 10-09-2008 4:12pm

i actually hate most biscuits......

although i do like those pink wafers and anything that resembles a custard cream .... the kind of biscuits you ate as a child!

star-pants · 10-09-2008 4:14pm

I like jaffa cakes & pink wafers, lemon puffs are a bit gack though

Creamy Goodness · 10-09-2008 6:25pm

omg lemon puffs, christ i don't think there is a more worse tasting biscuit.

biscuits are meant to taste nice...

Euck!

Chocolate Kimberly. As stated above, but with the added benefit of being dipped in brown lard and left to set.
I think most people pretend to like them because of how much they cost. Its rude NOT to pretend to enjoy a biscuit that cost €1.80. Blech.

Mr. Presentable · 10-09-2008 7:33pm

Polo
Thin Arrowroot

NicOda · 10-09-2008 7:35pm

Mareitta biscuts smeared with a layer of butter mmmmm.

Shortbread biscuts are yumm, and I know I'll get slated for this......

Plain HobNobs, in my opinion the biscut par excellence for dipping in a mug of tea.

Pigletlover · 11-09-2008 9:24am

I actually like lemon puffs

are they still around?

+1 on the Bourbon Creams and Ginger Nuts.

star-pants · 11-09-2008 4:34pm

Lemon puffs are still around indeed
Ginger nuts are good for dipping in tea though

Not a fan of chocolate kimberly it has to be said, I like the regular ones.

XxlauraxX · 11-09-2008 7:39pm

had a biscuit the other day called toffypops well they were just lovely it a biscuit bottom with a dip in it and a load of toffy inside smothered in chocolate !!:pac::pac::pac::D

brettmirl · 11-09-2008 9:11pm

You know what?

I actually can't think of any biscuits that I don't like!

Gingernuts, Toffypops and Cafe Noir would be favs.

Am going to scour the biscuit aisles tomorrow and see if i can find any i dont like!

Zaph · 11-09-2008 9:14pm

Most of the ones I don't like have been mentioned already, but one that hasn't is Goldgrain. It's like eating compacted sawdust when you bite into one of them.

I loathe Lemon Puffs. As a child, I used to refer to them as 'headache biscuits'. They just looked and tasted like they would give you a headache. I was a weird child....:pac:

I don't understand the backlash against Polos and Goldgrains. Especially the chocolate versions. And Chocolate Kimberlys...mmm.:)

I hate plain biscuits, Rich Teas, Digestives, and the like. Boring, boring, boring. If you're going to ruin your diet or whatever, you might as well go the whole hog and stick a bit of chocolate or marshmallow on top. 'Healthy' biscuits suck.

rubadub · 14-09-2008 7:29pm

I remember always thinking lemon puffs were gone stale, and kept eating them at various times trying to get a good one, before I copped they are supposed to taste stale :mad:

Chocolate polos are nice. I do not like Kimberleies but will eat a chocolate one if hungry.

I hate the grainy sugar on those "nice" biscuits.

Cheap fake (no butter) shortbread biscuits are also mank.

If you're going to ruin your diet or whatever, you might as well go the whole hog and stick a bit of chocolate or marshmallow on top. 'Healthy' biscuits suck.

Indeed, and a lot of those healthy versions are almost as bad or worse anyway.

Yeah, there's nothing more depressing than a 'healthy' biscuit or biscuit bar. Does anyone remember 'Go Ahead' bars? They looked manky. I've always thought if you want to be healthy, eat fruit. If you want to enjoy a nice choccie biscuit, just do it. Life's too short for 'healthy' biscuits.:D

KnifeWRENCH · 14-09-2008 7:52pm

There are very few biscuits that I don't eat.
I hate those pink wafer things. Eugh.
I don't particularly like Ginger Nuts. And I don't like any biscuits with nuts in them (like hazelnut cookies)

Other than that, I'll eat the majority of biscuits.

Lol, my sister is afraid of Lemon Puffs. She's 26.

Thank God I'm not alone! I'm just 19 though so it's not too bad!

:D

Ì generally don't like biscuits.
But ones coated with lumpy grains of sugar or with a pastel coloured creme layer in the middle are the worst.

Ruu_Old · 15-09-2008 12:59am

Custard creams, already mentioned.Vomit in a biscuit. ;_;

Cathal01 · 15-09-2008 2:18am
