The biscuit tin is a sacred place in every UK household, and the pecking order matters more than we'd like to admit. Time to rank the legends and settle the dunking debate once and for all.
Put the items in your preferred order.
Custard Cream
A baroque little sandwich of vanilla cream that's been quietly winning hearts since 1908. Posh enough for the in-laws, humble enough for a Tuesday.
Chocolate Digestive
The biscuit that united a nation and somehow tastes better with the chocolate side facing down. A proper cup of tea's best mate.

Jammie Dodger
Shortbread, a dollop of jam and a cheeky heart-shaped window. Nostalgia in a wrapper, even if you're pushing forty.

Bourbon
Two slabs of chocolatey biscuit with a creamy middle, named after a French royal house for some reason. Underrated and quietly brilliant.

Hobnob
Hearty, knobbly and dangerously dunkable, the Hobnob is what happens when a biscuit goes to the gym. One is never enough.
