    Biscuits??

    Please could someone explain biscuits to me?

    Lots of people seem to eat them in American novels, but I have no idea what they are. They appear to accompany any meal, or they do in the novels I read.

    Thanks.
    Dave.

    They actually look a bit like scones but aren't as sweet. Another hing they often have with meals corn bread or corn muffins.

    I really like them but the first time I saw 'Biscuits & Gravy' on a restaurant menu, I found the thought quite disgusting.

    "Grits"

    Now that is a product I have never been able to get my head ( or taste buds) around.

    And of course if you want 'biscuits' (our kind) you ask for cookies. Two nations divided by a common language is so true [msnwink]

    If you want imported English foods in Florida, look in the supermarkets 'Ethnic' aisle - honestly!

    P.S Andrew I agree, grits, yuk [sick]

    andrew[/quote]Love grits! A blob of butter and salt and pepper and it's yummy!

    Everyone's gotta try it once, you never know, you might just like it...
