Have you ever eaten a whole pack of biscuits (cookies) in one sitting?

As I'm trying to cut down on coffee because I have enough 'catfeine' to last throughout the day, I tried Twinnings English strong breakfast tea and found it hit the spot.

So then I needed something else. A Hobnob biscuit, followed by another and then another. I never used to eat biscuits with my coffee not even Biscoff now I crave them and I'm an officiated dunker, it's like a duty to perform.

I wonder how many other lives Hobnobs have ruined? Yours?

Here in the US, my wife & I learned about Hobnobs on The Great British Bake Off, and discovered a store a few miles away that imports them!

Since today Jan18 is National Winnie the Pooh day here in the US (also A.A. Milne's birthday), perhaps honey on a Hobnob would be an appropriate way to celebrate!

@ElwoodBlues That sounds lovely. I used to adore Winnie the Pooh when I was a kid. Hobnobs are really the best Brit biscuit! 🍪 Are they expensive to buy fo you though? Here in local supermarket they sell for £1.50 a pack. Not sure what that is in dollars but I know stores in the US charge a lot for imported items.
@mossyboots I don't remember the exact price in the US; probably a little less than double that. Oddly, the store sometimes has the traditional orange Hobnob biscuit pack, and sometimes a bluish purple pack that says "Hobnob cookies." I think the purple packs may be imported from Australia; the orange ones from the UK. As far as I can tell, the two kinds of packs taste exactly the same.

@ElwoodBluesI haven't even heard of orange hobnobs, I'll have to keep an eye out for them.
@mossyboots Sorry, I meant orange colored packaging!! They are standard Hobnobs inside (I presume)!
