    Oh okay. It must be someone else I had in mind then. All I remember is that it was an active SoapBoxer (the classic one, not the new versions). 2 Indian markets in a 40K population is surprising. Is it a college town with 100s of Indian students and professors?

      I've seen things pretty close here in the US and also in South America, but I'm not sure why anyone would eat them! After all, we have Oreos[^] and coffee.

      Oreos are terrible. You'd never find one in my biscuit tin; although the biscuit tin is usually empty as I will have already eaten all of the biscuits so you'll not find anything in there!

      My current favourite quote is: Punch them in the face, see what happens!

        Maybe a pretender to the throne. McVitie's Digestives - one biscuit to rule them all.

          it's a suburb of Raleigh/Chapel Hill/Durham, so there are three big colleges (NC State, UNC and Duke) in the area and tons of tech jobs.

                In Kerala (India), people just call them cream biscuits or cream centered biscuits. Here in the US, I guess they'd be called cream filled cookies (like Oreos).

                No, it is different than a regular cream biscuit. It is made from custard powder so it tastes a lot different than the cream biscuits you find in the market.

                      Close but a pretender - either McVitie's digestive (plain or chocolate) or Jacob's fig rolls. One has stadards to maintain. :-D

                          I don't like coffee. I like tea, but I don't really drink hot drinks so. I stand by what I said, if you want a real biscuity snack then you really want to be having a Fox's Classic, or Tripple. Now that's a question which is better? I know for a fact that I can eat a lot more Tripples than Classics before feeling ill, but by that logic chocolate covered digestives would reign supreme; I have (and will again) eaten entire packets in one sitting - I just can't stop.

                            Yes, but it tastes like Sauerkraut.
