    We Bangladeshis also have a daily routine of drinking tea with various kinds of biscuits! And actually this tradition of eating biscuits have come to Indian Subcontinent from Britain! But we also eat hard toast biscuits (my grand-mother's favourite) and spicy biscuits!

      Nice! I have a desire to come and make a video about the similarities between Indians and Brits, but maybe it should also include Bangladeshis too 🤷🏻‍♂️ greetings from Brighton ✌🏻

    Love, love, love. Makes me "homesick" for England. I'm with Isi i.e. chocolate digestive biscuits/hobnobs. Maybe that's because we're both German. And those Jaffa Cakes are big in GE, too.

    Very entertaining video. I learnt quite a bit. Love the thought of new Scottish brides getting bonked over the head with shortbread. Decent tea colour - not too much milk. Including Jammie Dodgers and Jaffa Cakes in the context of tea: Utter madness. Omitting Rich TEA ginger nuts and bourbons: criminal. The dunking is an art in itself. E.g. a rich tea will almost dissolve at the sight of liquid, so you have to be on your toes!

      Thanks Patrick! Shortbreads are potential murder weapons, they're so sturdy. Me and Isi are more than willing to make part 2 with your suggestions

    Aaah, English biscuits! My every time favorites are digestives from Mc Vities - so simple and so good. What I like most about your biscuits is that they aren't so sweet - maybe even a touch of saltiness or heartiness (does this word exist?) about them. Hobnobs are also fine and ginger snaps - they give such a warming feel. Aaargh, now you made me crave for biscuits! 😅

    I'm not a big fan of biscuits, but that one with chocolate chips seems quite good to me (the only ones I eat from time to time are quite similar).
    I absolutely love Spanish polvorones and mantecados accompanying tea or milk. The village of my grandparents and the nearby cities make some of the best ones of Spain 😋, but as a downside, they are made almost exclusively around Christmas. I'm dreaming of them the whole year.

    I love biscuits😍 Actually I'm intolerant to wheat and dairy products so I always look for something that don't contain those ingredients.
    Well, here in Italy, I've found a good dark chocolate biscuit with chocolate chunks, my God, I eat too much of them, with soya drink 😂😂😂 or just alone.
    I would like to try also those with oat flakes (no milk chocolate) and I always wanted to try shortbread biscuits.... Maybe when I'll visit Scotland😍
    Thanks for this interesting video👏👏👏👏👋👋👋🇮🇹

  • @klimtkahlo
    @klimtkahlo 3 года назад +1

    Was the temperature of the tea all the same? Or did you use the same cup for all the biscuits? If so, it was hotter for the first biscuit and cooler for the last! #1 everything Scottish, #2 Cadbury fingers. I wonder if you are British and the fact that the Scottish cookies were voted best just stung a little! 😈

    • @EasyEnglishVideos
      @EasyEnglishVideos  3 года назад +2

      It was the same cup but it was boiling hot regardless I can confirm... maybe not a test with the most scientific accuracy though. I am British but luckily the Scottish biscuits are produced in my birth town of Stockport so it's a win-win scenario

      You’re lucky you didn’t have to hear it all slopping in 🤢 surely it’s originally Scottish with a name like McVities?
