A biscuit (pronounced /ˈbɪskɨt/) is a baked edible product. The word applies to two distinctly different products in American and British English.

In American English it relates to a small soft leavened bread, somewhat similar to a scone
In British English it relates to a small and hard, often sweetened, flour based product, most akin in American English to a cookie

Soggy biscuit, sometimes also called The Biscuit Game, Cookies and Cream or Ookie Cookie is a purported male masturbation game which originated from the United Kingdom in which the participants stand around a biscuit masturbating until ejaculating on to it; the last person to do so must eat the biscuit.[1] The game is also known in Australia as soggy Sao after the SAO brand of biscuits popular there.[2] The term "soggy biscuit" is thought to have originated in the UK sometime in the 1960s.[1] Although the terminology may differ slightly, the notability of the game is such that variations on the theme are referred to in popular culture, examples including Stephen Fry's The Liar, the German movie Crazy, Adam Green's song "Mozzarella Swastikas", and Skinless's song "Scum Cookie". It was also referred to in a 2009 episode of Skins and the second episode of the first series of sketch show Horne and Corden and in a 2007 episode of the web show "Dorm Life", and in the 2007 season 3 episode of Drawn Together "Nipple Ring-Ring Goes to Foster Care," in the song "Sick 2 Def" by Plan B, and in the Blackadder episode "Chains".

Quote from: Jane Kenyon

Biscuit

The dog has cleaned his bowl
and his reward is a biscuit,
which I put in his mouth
like a priest offering the host.

I can't bear that trusting face!
He asks for bread, expects
bread, and I in my power
might have given him a stone.

Don't you think you might be overreacting a little, Johnny?

i'm reacting to what the situation warrants and has always warranted which is you fucking assholes can't shut up about biscuits so now there's a thread and maybe you'll fight to the death and kill each other if i'm at all lucky

I did a search for the mentions of biscuits on the forum...there was one page of results, mostly discussion of Gorilla Biscuits and The Disco Biscuits.

Just sayin'.

Nice biscuits are (nice?) pretty delicious.

Croissants are far superior to the biscuits in terms of breakfast munchies.

not to open a can of worms here, but Tuc 'buscuits' are actually more of a savory cracker than an actual buscuit. And they are also delicious

Both versions are delicious. Bring me biscuits with jam.

I'm going to hazard a guess that it might also be the case in France.

Changing the subject slightly, do you people overseas have graham crackers? And are they crackers or cookies/biscuits? I can't decide! (But supposedly they were invented, like corn flakes, with the intention to curb sexual appetites, which makes them a silly, though delicious, food.) Same goes with Animal Crackers. Still don't know if it's a cookie or a cracker.

Quote from: wikipedia

Graham believed that adhering to the diet would prevent people from having impure thoughts and in turn would stop masturbation (thought by Graham to be a catalyst for blindness) among other things.

No Linds I don't think they do, actually.

Lunchbox · « **Reply #31 on:** 21 Apr 2010, 17:28 »

We don't have actual Graham crackers but we do have sort of similarish plain wheat biscuit alternatives, although they aren't so delicious OR square. I can't even find them in the specialist American candy stores around here, which is annoying because it is Autumn and fire time and I want to make S'mores but have not the resources.

Lunchbox · « **Reply #32 on:** 21 Apr 2010, 17:29 »

But since they are sweet they would be a biscuit and definitely not a cracker (which HAS to be savoury, although there are some savoury snacks that we call biscuits?)

Goddamnit I told myself I wasn't going to get involved in this thread

I'm sorry, Lunchy! But I was eating graham crackers (with peanut butter and jelly, which actually works really well) and the thought came up.

I have never eaten in a McDonalds, not ever & I know what one is. Except I'd cal it a brealfast muffin. Maybe that is because I am English.
