    There is no "best" biscuit. Even what I prefer depends on what I feel like at the time, and even what I've been eating recently. If I've had quite a few of something recently, I get bored and move to something different.

    It might be Jaffas today, Cheddars next week and fig rolls the week after.

    And that's just me. You lot like some weird stuff.

    Chocolate hotnob must be close to the top
    For me tho chocolate caramel digestive beats it, but in my work team we get through a huge number of biscuits, chocolate hobnob came out top

    Well, you said it yourself. Jaffa Cakes are cakes, not biscuits, it's the law!

    It depends on my mood, the manner of consumption, what's on sale and random cravings

    In general, ginger nuts win outright, though
