Chocolate Caramel

Sunday 9 Dec 2001


Once again McVities lead the way with chocolate biscuits.

This is basically like a little milk chocolate some what but with a layer of caramel slipped in between. This actually takes even the prepared eater a little by surprise as the biscuit has a little more fight in it than your average chocolate biscuit. The caramel acts almost like a layer of glue.

A very rewarding recreational biscuit, that puts enough of a fight to make sure that you don't eat them all in one go.

Maryland Double Choc Chip Cookie

Monday 19 Nov 2001


Made by the Horizon biscuit company a serviceable little biscuit this.

I like the way the manufacturers have tried to make out that these biscuits are in some way American, when it says on the packet that they are made in the Wirral. Still they are munchy and their small diameter means that you can happily see off 5 or 6 without too much fuss.

Also they aren't nearly as chocolately as their name implies, which is good as they aren't too sickly.

They come in a three pack with conventional Chocolate Chip and Hazelnut chip. These have proved to be a good informal business meeting biscuit.

 

Ginger Nut

Sunday 4 Nov 2001


Ginger nuts have to be the Chicken Vindaloo of the biscuit world. Not only are they often gingery enough to actually be spicy but they are also quite hard.

Once again McVities are head and shoulders above the competition, probably due to a no compromise approach to sugar content. However, that said you have to try hard to get a bad ginger nut.

Years ago you could get big bags of mini ginger nuts made by Jacobs I think. They were superb but you needed at least 20 of them before they began to work.

Finally due to their very crunchy nature, ginger nuts cause weird flashes to appear on computer monitors if viewed across a room, whilst being munched. Its true.
