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’s a mf biscuit
ex pat in the deep south: I have had both.
They are similar but different enough you cannot interchangeably use them.
“ok what’s it like then”
eating a slightly different bread product
“different how”
in flavour and texture
I had biscuits and gravy on my last trip to the States. Scones are very different. Much fluffier. Mostly the scones I’ve had have fruit in them too.
Edit: our gravy is nothing like the one I got served either
The biscuits you had were fluffier. I promise we have biscuits that are ‘scone-like’.
biscuits are hard and snappable, what’s pictured is an english muffin.
i agree that this isn’t a scone though, scones are… doughier? like, an english muffin has the elasticity of bread, while scones are way denser and not elastic.
