That looks like a scone, if anything. What's it made of?

Rabid Dinosaur · 10-28-2009, 04:59 PM

They're not as dry as scones. Hmm, someone help me out here.

AR-Raven · 10-28-2009, 05:03 PM

It's soft and flaky.

"In American English, a "biscuit" is a small bread made with baking powder or baking soda as a leavening agent rather than yeast (although a type of biscuit called an 'angel biscuit' contains yeast as well, as do those made with a sourdough starter). This roughly corresponds to a "scone" in British English usage."

That's what Wikipedia says. Which makes sense, although I thought it would be easier to explain a biscuit. I have never thought of this!

I think most people around here think of gravy like this

I think in more southern states it's a lot more common.

What's the difference between a biscuit and a cookie?

Trooper · 10-28-2009, 05:13 PM

So if this is you biscuit, what's your scone?

Tuna Hematoma · 10-28-2009, 05:22 PM

Like... a miniature version of a biscuit that has some topping, like jam, honey, butter, etc. I also think they're are triangle shaped?

That's my understanding anyway.

Beast · 10-28-2009, 05:39 PM

Not according to that last picture posted.

EDIT- second to last.

Rabid Dinosaur · 10-28-2009, 06:46 PM

Scones are drier and crumblier.

A cookie is only a cookie if it has chocolate chips. That's my definition, anyway

Also, gravy in the UK is the latter picture

mexican foods awesome, but you gotta be near the border to enjoy it. im from southern california, and your from tex so im guessing you get the benefits of those run down taco shops that are oh so delicious.

and if by lucas you mean that odd candy, its allright but i always feel like iim buying a 10 year old batch of it because its always in some dusty ass box.

I had that really bad as a kid one time. I got out of bed and part of my head must have still been asleep. I just kept getting these hideously depressing/scary emotions, no specific images, just horrible feelings. I was terrified of something but I didn't even know what it was. It took me a long time to realise that it was totally illogical and I ended up walking round the house until my brain woke up and started being rational again.
