I’m sorry but biscuit is clearly a far better sounding word for a savory baked good you dip in gravy and have with bacon and eggs. Not for a sweet delectable baked good, for that a more cutesy sounding word like “cookie” is far fucking better.

English perverts should stop calling fucking cookies biscuits, I don’t dip Oreos in gravy you cretins.

    You mean milk?

    Do British people have some weird name for that like “Creamy Doddy Kippers”

      Nah that weird white sauce you call gravy that you have with whatever tf you call biscuits, I think anyway I've only ever seen it on TV (which we call the viddybox).

        Dude I’ve never had white gravy

        Give me that thick brown shit I can dip my BISCUITS in

        Edit: your people eat fucking jellied eels so you can’t really judge anyone for their eating habits

          Wait biscuits and brown gravy WTF is wrong with you? Dude it's not hard, get some biscuits from the cardboard tube and make some white gravy:

          Ingredients

          ▢ 1 pound pork breakfast sausage (the loose kind not links)
          ▢ 1 tablespoon salted butter or bacon fat (probably not necessary)
          ▢ ¼ cup all-purpose flour
          ▢ 2 ⅓ cups whole milk
          ▢ salt and pepper to taste (nah fuck that put a shit-ton of black pepper in there)
          

          Instructions

          Brown sausage over medium high heat until no pink remains. (Do not drain).
          Add butter (or bacon fat) and cook to melt. Stir in flour and cook 2 minutes more.
          Add milk a little bit at a time stirring after each addition.
          Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until thick and bubbly.
          Season with salt and a shit-ton of pepper

            I watched one of those videos once where "[Someone from County A] eats [something from Country B]" and they were eating biscuits and gravy with these sad little dabs of gravy on top. Everyone in the comments was going YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!!! DROWN THOSE THINGS IN GRAVY!

          Ok then a transatlantic consensus of sorts has been reached. Best thing to put gravy on tho is a yorkshire pudding me old bean.

          Whats that white stuff I'm thinking of then? Any other usas got any idea? I'm sure i didn't make it up.

          EDIT: in my 30+ years of life i've never once eaten jellied eels, seen jellied eels for sale or spoken to anyone who has eaten them. i find this stereotype outdated and highly offensive. please stick to the more accurate stereotype of english people as racist colonial murderers.

            There is such a thing as white gravy. It’s just creamer than regular gravy and it is often served with biscuits. It’s good it just looks gross.

            But honestly how the fuck did you weirdos have the idea that putting fucking eels in jelly was a good idea? Like... wtf?

              I don't think anyone alive in the UK has actually ever eaten jellied eels, probably just made up to trick American tourists into eating ridiculous things.
