    i was told by a brit that american biscuits were “salty scones”

    and i have never wanted to complain more in my life. Especially given the american propensity to make shit sweet as fuck.

      I had the distinct pleasure of explaining what biscuits and gravy were to a confused 6th Doctor Who actor Colin Baker. To his credit, he said he’d like to try it.

            judging by the amount of posts/comments, yeah, makes sense.

      It’s true, the “biscuits and gravy” biscuits are closer to scones than what a Brit would think of as a biscuit.

      Also, biscuits and gravy, wtf

        What’s wrong with biscuits and gravy?

          Biscuits with sausage gravy doused in hot sauce and a couple fried eggs make a great breakfast

            In this case I prefer fresh cracked black pepper to hot sauce. No other notes.

              I think he’s a trucker. the biscuits and gravy at a Love’s I could see dumping hot sauce on. Not generally though.

              That fresh black pepper makes biscuits and sausage gravy killer!
