Major Obvious came home from work one day bearing this package. Now, normally I do not condone packaged cookies in the house. (I will bend for cookies that are "home-baked" in the grocery store). I just can't help but feel that the cookie manufacturers of the world are shoving trans fats into the little treats at every turn. (How else can the biscuits stay "fresh" for a year on the shelf?) The worst of it is, I never seem to see the term "hydrogenated" anywhere on UK packaging, so I can't help but wonder whether these cookies are filled with trans fats anyway or if, perhaps, this country is more health conscious than the United States.
But these little Nice biscuits are very, very hard to resist. Whenever I eat one, I automatically pop another and then another in my mouth. Then, I run out of the kitchen so I don't eat the whole box in one sitting. They are crunchy with tiny little coconut pieces in the cookie, and then a fluffy vanilla cream filling provides a great additional treat. They're awesome. They're probably going to make me gain an additional 3 pounds on top of the traditional holiday weight, but oh well. 'Tis the season!
