| Why are Nice biscuits called that? Q. Why are 'Nice' biscuits called that? A. I don't know because they are possibly one of the nastiest biscuits ever, perhaps its sarcasm.   Nice Cup of Tea and a Sit Down No trees were harmed in the creation of this message. However, many electrons were displaced and terribly inconvenienced.  |

| i always thought they were called it due to some kind of relation to Nice in France as they have the same pronounciation (dont think thats spelt right, but im too lazy to check) as da_ging pointed out. |
