Bread is made of dough and chocolate is not a type of dough. Therefore, a biscuit cannot be made of chocolate. Chew on that one, you comedic genius.


Oooh! Touchy ;)

A 'biscuit' is a 'cookie' in American i guess, so just imagine a chocolate covered cookie??? Not for UK people though, because a biscuit and a cookie are different here. It's a tough one, i'll give you that!

He should have just written "you keep the Tunnocks Caramels wired to a car alarm", and avoided all confusion! :D

Tunnocks teacakes would have scanned better :)

All cookies are biscuits, but all biscuits are not cookies, because biscuits can be savoury... they are called crackers in America aren't they? It's like the relation between differentiable and continuous functions :)
