All Borders are good!

I've not tried any others but I will and I'll be buying more of the ginger. Might need to introduce Border control!

I've been buying Aldi's own. About 40p a pack and I think they're great.

I’ve got a packet of Jaffa Cakes in the cupboard, they’re orange and cranberry. I’ll report back!

I was looking at them and jesus the packets look half the size of what I remember.

always felt fat as hell after a packet though so decided against buying any

I bought some dark cherry flavoured biscuits called Jezyki from Home Bargains. They are my best every biscuit, the trouble is they've stopped selling them.

My absolute favourite biscuit that has to be in the house, regardless of bahlsen, jaffa cakes or anything else is these. I buy them almost every week. Don't buy the Patterson ones, they're rubbish, very dry.

Just discovered these, my go to shortbread now!

Good choice. I can't be without them. And Aldi do them too, pretty much identical quality.

All wrong.
I can beat every one of those... bare fisted and with one hand behind my back!

You should all try South African rusks (which is technically a biscuit), as you couldn't beat them with a sledgehammer. Dunking in coffee (or tea, if you must) is pretty much a requirement.
Those who like chocolate can get the ones with chocolate chips in.

I suggest buying Ouma rusks, until you learn how to bake your own.
