Literally can not stop eating digestive biscuits

[mysteriouseye]

Most definitely is my craving but the thing is I cant eat a sensible amount I literally must have like 7/8 biscuits in one sitting. Luckily I have only gained 5lbs so far but I swear I am going to be the size of a beach ball if this continues … what are you cravings? xx

Mmmm I don't blame you they're scrummy I've been wanting those hovis biscuits you have with cheese, the salty ones. Looked twice for them while food shopping and they didn't have any other than that not many cravings really.

Im going to show my thick head on this, but what do you call a biscuit? To me, a biscuit is flour/yeast/buttermilk bread in a round form commonly served alongside the meal or with gravy over it. What makes it "digestive?"

lol, apologies in advance as I know I sound very dense! I've seen "biscuits" referenced through here often though and I havent quite made the connection!

Just different terms, hon. A biscuit is what the British call a cookie. A digestive cookie/biscuit is sort of a plain, not too sweet, not overly flavourful type of store-bought cookie. I'm not making them sound very appetizing but they're good. Lots of people have them with tea. Sort of like a step up from an Arrowroot cookie, but different? We have them in Canada, not sure about the U.S.

And Mysteriouseye, don't be so hard on yourself! Digestive cookies are pretty healthy as far as cookies/biscuits go (almost like a sweetened cracker) and 7-8 is not exactly gluttonous (I think a single serving is about 4 of them). I figured you meant like, 20! I wouldn't worry!

Yum! At the moment I'm really into chocolate. Pre-pregnancy I would have swapped anything - chocolate, ice cream, crisps for a cup of coffee and a biscuit (or 10!) but now I'm eating A LOT of chocolate. I've also just had lamb koftas for dinner and basically ignored the meat and ate half a tub of tzatziki instead!
