    What type of biscuit though? Hobnobs? Custard Creams? Honestly I’m struggling to think of a biscuit that would go well with chicken.

        I’m guessing they are asking because in British English biscuits are cookies?

      In case you aren’t being an intentional dumbass; in American ‘biscuit’ means savory buttery pastry roll. Each of the items you listed would be referred to here as ‘cookies’.

        I know what they are. It was a bit of a deliberate play on words, swapping the American and English definitions of biscuit. A joke that was perhaps a bit too subtle or too British for Americans to comprehend.

          I got it but, to me at least, the delivery/wording made it unfunny for me. I took it as being intentionally thick and condescending, which is also how I read this response.
