I saw this on Mastodon posted by @infobeautiful@vis.social and figured that it was appropriate for this community and absolutely not controversial in any way shape or form.
That picture looks like an American biscuit. We put white sausage gravy on top and call it "biscuits and gravy."
Outside of America, a "biscuit" is what you guys call a "cookie".
At least you all agree on how to pronounce it, though. You (presumably) have no idea how deep the divide goes, UK-wise!
Which is pretty close to what they are! Although iirc biscuits are somewhat more crumbly
A friendly place to chat.
No politics please. Don't be a dick.
