Why Can't they get the Biscuts right?

some people like biscuits more than cocktails

 

Mike, this gets my Post of the Day Award. Heck, maybe of the month.

 

I am a Southern Girl from Texas. Well, have lived here most of my life... Was born in Burbank but my mama was from Texas and can sure cook a biscuit!

The Grands frozen Southern Style biscuits are actually almost like homemade biscuits, maybe should try those. Overcooked or left sitting too long will harden biscuits. And re-heating a biscuit is the pits! Will most definitely harden them!

It IS amazing. They do great job baking bread and yet the biscuits are closer to beige hockey pucks than food.

Just.....perfect, thank you!

 

Amazing that people will read such an annoying subject to them just to make a critical post.

 

Guess it shows that threads like this are needed to give them something to do/read ;-)

Biscuits???? what we call scones-where I come from they are only ever served for afternoon tea usually with jam and cream never at breakfast and definitely not with gravy. Imagine my shock when I stayed at friends who lived in Georgia and they served them up for breakfast. All I felt like eating was fruit, yoghurt and a cup of coffee. Biscuits to us are what you call cookies.

 

Cocktails though are cocktails-I get those! There's plenty of yummy cocktails aboard! (You've gotta focus on the important things in life for sure!)

This is a public forum where the OP can write about pretty much anything they want. If you don't enjoy reading about biscuits (clearly stated in the title), don't open the thread. :rolleyes:

Biscuits and scones are definately NOT the same thing if someone knows how to properly make each one. :)

Biscuits and scones aren't the same thing. Much like donuts and bagels aren't the same thing. They use similar ingredients for different results.

Kinda like beer and bread---same stuff, different result.

Scones are served each afternoon about 3 pm in the Great Outdoors (where there is one). They include the cream and jam. My wife really likes them. My wife isn't British, but having eaten scones in England, she says that to her, these are equally good.

Oh, lighten up.

 

I agree.

 

This is a rather comical (in a good way) thread. I can't say I've ever had the biscuits on NCL, or at least not with gravy. Being from the north if I did, I would have had them with Jam. Also, if I did, obviously they never left lasting impression on me, one way or another :D

Biscuits aside, the title of this thread is simply perfect! "Why Can't They Get the Biscuits Right?" should be the title of a book - or a movie. The OP should copyright it! :)

They must get the biscuit mix from the same distributor that supplies them with that fake-maple pancake syrup.

 

Uh-oh...here we go again! :eek:

 

I always bring a roll or two when I go... Also baby wipes don't hurt either :)

 

Just don't flush them!

Not good, from what I understand it clogs up the toilet systems. You won't make many friends that way...

Safe sailing (with working toilets)

The baby wipe is just for the finale! One wipe won't clog the system. :)

To get back on topic of the biscuits. They are bad.

This is incorrect and you and you are wrong.

Doing this is a stupid thing to do. Really really stupid.

And inconsiderate.

But have they ruined any cruises? ;):D

No, but flushed baby-wipes may well have done!:rolleyes:

 

(How do we get from rubbish 'biscuits' to things being flushed down the toilet? - Oh I see...)

Wrong.....hoping if we ever on same cruise, we on different toilet lines.....

Even different toilet paper---bad

Safe sailing

Are you suggesting a new use for the biscuits :eek:

And, to make matters crazier, here in Utah, this is a scone:

 

 

Yep, that's right. Deep fried dough. Then you cover with butter and honey. And dial 911.

Naww. One is as edible as the other.
