Indeed, often in the South biscuts have a very soft, fluffy interior, especially when warm.

American biscuits are like savoury scones.
I wish there was some way to convey texture via the internet.

They are more crumby rather than fluffy like a bun/bap/breadcake/roll.

There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.

To quote Aerosmith "You ain't seen nothin' 'til you're down on a muffin." So I suppose it depends upon the muffin.

Does it count as 'fast food' if it's from a mom and pop eatery, and not a national chain? Automatically Appended Next Post: Chibi Bodge-Battle wrote: Automatically Appended Next Post:

Ive spent a whole 2 bucks on a muffin once, it was huge and I was told it was damn tasty. It was worth every bit of that 2 bucks....I probably would pay 3 or 4 for it now that I know how yummy it was

For the Western inclined regarding muffin differentiation:
There's an easy way to know what an English muffin is. The types of buns that McDonalds breakfast patties come in: those are English muffins.

But I do not forget the price of the crisps.
Was it premium chips or something?
They were somewhat premium, and they were an English brand, irritatingly. They we're four and a half quids worth of bloody premium though. To put it in context, the most I've seen them sold for in the UK was 70p.
