Someone really needs to start making actual bourbon biscuits.
Like, yeah, they're the best and all that. But, what if I need that bit of something to get me through the day? I can't have a drink at 9 am because it's frowned upon. But a biscuit? Yeah, that's calm.
And that’s why the American language is so strange.
I think one day in history the dictionary everyone used got coffee on it and the words had no definitions so they had to assign them to whatever they thought was right. Sadly they were wrong.
Mostly tasteless? You need to try a better biscuit. Also, while that biscuits and gravy thing is true, they're more often either on the side or cut in half with bacon and eggs or something in between the halves. It's not something you want to eat every day, but once every few months on a Saturday morning it's incredible.
Except the "gravy" is a greasy roux with bits of sausage meat in it. I think the biscuits are basically savoury scones. I'm not judging, the whole dish sounds fairly tasty and like the kind of thing a Northerner or Scotsman might invent.
Thank you, I remember being young and trying them for the first time excited as American culture had bigged them up no end, and they turned out to be bland as anything and nothing on a custard cream.
