OP
OP
I'm seriously going to be the only Jam tart guy here? Fine more for me, jaffa cakes have nothing on Jam Tarts with custard
The real question should be the cheapo "creams" biscuit showdown.
- Bourbon creams
- Custard creams
- Strawberry creams
Probably Bourbon creams for me, but I can also get through a pack of custard creams easy.
I don't like jaffa cakes so I'll probably go with jam tarts of the 3, don't really buy or have any of them often though.
Funny thing is despite be telling my mum every year I don't like jaffa cakes before Xmas, for my entire teenager years she'd buy me and my brothers those giant tubes of them as one of our gifts and I'd just give to my brothers instead. The next year I'd warn her way before Xmas I don't like them but same again haha.

If you don't like orange and chocolate it's going to be a tough sell, but they're good enough to overcome it for some.
If you have one of those UK specialty goods store around, they should carry them! That is where I pick up my UK snacks.
If it is with a nice brew, then it is bourbons all day long.
I love both orange and chocolate. Sign me up.
My local supermarket has a UK section, I bet they have it there.
Custard Creams and Ginger Nut biscuits are the king contaminators of the biscuit tin.
The right answer, my fave biscuit. The cheaper the better!
Pies and jam tarts shouldn't even be in a poll with biscuits(or tiny cakes, if we're talking Jaffa cakes).
Edit* Also, lime Jaffa Cakes are/were far superior to regular Jaffas. Haven't seen them in the shops for about 10 years though. Jaffa cakes are still bang average though.

The scene in Spaced where they find the packet of Jaffa Cakes and all go 'YAY!' is me.
Jaffa Cakes.
Jaffa Cakes.
Bourbon creams are definitely one of the rare things that get worse the better made/better ingredients are that they're made of.
The cheaper they are the tastier they are, that's just a fact.
Thus is the way of the world:
Chocolate Digestives > Jammie Dodgers > Pink Wafers > Nice Biscuits > Chocolate Bourbons > whatever
Chocolate Digestives > Jammie Dodgers > Pink Wafers > Nice Biscuits > Chocolate Bourbons > whatever
They've actually just started bringing these back again this year, worth keeping an eye out next time you are in the supermarket!
tbh I've had supermarket own brand chocolate that's nicer than all of these options. Like who is buying Wagon Wheels anymore?
Jaffa Cakes for me though. Jammie Dodgers have always been a bit crap, and Jam tarts are only nice when it's a pack with one single strawberry flavour and lemon curd.
My favourite biscuit overall are Maryland double choc chip cookies though.

Absolutely, pence per biscuit they are the best, and taste the best too.
Dry, dipped in milk, or crushed and sprinkled on ice crean, either way, amazing!
That just says to me that you're not actually a Brit. Next you're going to say you don't actually like tea either.
