Ritz and Oreo are nothing alike...over here (usa) something sweet like Oreo or Famous Amos is called a cookie...something salty like Ritz or Saltines are called crackers. In Singapore they're all considered biscuits?Originally posted by pokkagreentea:

they tasted really nice. Very addictive too...I dun dare to buy it cos I tend to finish them very very fastOriginally posted by MooKu:Are they really nice and buttery? I've not tried them cos those butter cookies that come in hampers always taste icky. Got stigma already hahahaha.
Chocolate chip cookies either from this recipe or the chewy ones from Chips-Ahoy...heard that they dun have it in Singapore tho
And also the crackers, Ping Pong brand one, can dip inside black coffee and eat...yummy...but can't find here -

1) Biscuit
-A small cake of shortened bread leavened with baking powder or soda.
Chiefly British. Explains why we ex-colonies may have biscuits.
-A thin, crisp cracker.
-A cookie.
In fact, when I was in US, I was surprised to learn that biscuit was this... scone like buttery 'cake bun' thing that people eat with turkey!
2) Cookie
cook·ie also cook·y ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kk)
n. pl. cook·ies
A small, usually flat and crisp cake made from sweetened dough.
3) Crackers
A thin crisp wafer or biscuit, usually made of unsweetened dough.
In short-
A biscuit doesn't need to be crispy or sweet. A cookie is Always sweet. And a cracker is crispy but never sweet.
Hmm. can't believe a thread on biscuits have gone on to the 3rd page. Looks like its one of our staple foods. -
overhere, the local cookie is Cookietime
the company even baked the world biggest cookie -
