I will be laughed off the board on this one if I hazard a view, so I will just sit back and learn a little. 😁
My grocery store has a small UK section that includes biscuits, but the there are just a few brands. We do buy different types to have at home along with American cookies. I’ve already said too much. Haha.

If I had to choose 1 it would be a bourbon. Though I’d probably take a couple. Closely followed by a ginger nut.
Dunking in tea of course. A must.
on the opposite I hate dead fly biscuits or garabaldies as I think they are called.

Milk Chocolate bickies for me. Is that how you spell 'em? I dunno, even the internet ain't clear on that.
Jaffa Cakes (prefer the asda cheap ones, more crunchy) are my numero uno but I get through them too quickly.
When I was a kid Custard Creams were my favs but they're much too sweet for me now.

Officially Jaffa Cakes are not biscuits, they are small cakes….

A dunked full sized digestive in a mug of PG Tips marks me out as English to the bone. Can't be doing with these smaller biccies, they're just for practice.

While I generally prefer biscuits back in the UK to the ones here in Germany, it's hard to beat a dark chocolate Leibniz.
Otherwise hard to choose. Ginger snaps probably edge it for me. Partly because every time I have one it's better than I remember and partly because jaffa cakes aren't biscuits.
My wife and I are real biscuit (and biscuit-shaped cake) junkies. A pack rarely lasts more than 5 minutes from the moment it's opened.

Rich Tea as they taste like tea.Fond of ginger nuts and half as fond of plain digestives.I do not eat many of either as I prefer savoury products.

No way can you beat a hobnob or a custard cream...could devour a pack of each EASILY!

No one voted for nice
They are good for putting in a cup of tea then as one becomes senile one leaves it in the cup of tea too long and then has to scoope out the soggy consolidated mess whilst everyone one else is looking and thinking “ what is that old man doing for gods sake “
I then always think of Steptoe senior and give a smile like his which then compounds the disgust of others
The only criticism of nice biscuit is too much sugar which I cannot have anymore.
I am very lucky my wife is a fantastic cook snd she bakes organic and non organic Indian ground flour and I only eat her stuff now
No added items and very healthy for meeting the safety requirements of medical strict diets - must prolong life to see orient back in the old division 2 ( championship) hopefully achieved in the next three seasons .

If we all quit added sugar we'd all be a lot better off.
