If you are like us, you are probably wondering what happened to biscuits like speedy, fishy, coaster, coconut biscuit, and pepper snack biscuits. Before we go on (the writer for this post identifies as a millennial, lol).
We want to take you down memory lane to help you remember what you might have forgotten, activate the nostalgia of your childhood memories, and ask which biscuits you miss most. We would also tell you some of the alternatives that are available now.
SPEEDY
If you used to eat speedy, I bet you had superpowers because the taste of that chocolate biscuit was heavenly and for no mere mortal. Then, the quality began reducing; you’d think it went extinct, but we came across the biscuit in a local store. Nope, don’t get excited; we tried it and concluded it was better if it didn’t resurface.
PEPPER SNACK BISCUIT
Ha, you had to have achieved some level of self-awareness to like this biscuit, lol. The pepper and flavor was everything; appropriate and accurate. If this was your fav, we should address you as chief.
FISHY BISCUIT
This biscuit was made for those who had ambitions, don’t lie to us; we know you used to bite off the tail before getting to the head; see, that’s ambitious. We hope those who liked this biscuit are now doctors, pilots, and engineers.
COCONUT BISCUIT
You know we are about to say that snack was for nature explorers. That biscuit just helped you get things right; at this point, you are wondering why there’s so much attached to snacks. Because those weren’t just biscuits, they were everything. We really can’t believe they took away the era where we could have snacks and get teleported into another reality. We blame the economy. Maybe we should start a protest “bring back our snack”.
NEW ERA
Before we get started, have you had coaster recently? You would almost denounce your foodie membership; the texture is too soft with lesser ingredients, and that doesn’t feel right.
CHOCO RINGS
We promised to let you in on new biscuits, right?
Our review? We honestly feel choco ring is too sugary, definitely too processed. You can feel the artificial flavors that knock off your interest. Maybe, this isn’t for millennials. And that hole in the middle keeps getting wilder every time you buy it, lol. Management strategy versus real life.
NOROES
We’ve had Noroes since far back, right? They used to taste like the Nigerian version of Oreos, unlike now, it’s just flour in cream. It’s just not appealing. Come on, when does this get better?
PURE BLISS
We think pure bliss (chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry) is a good apology. Yes, it feels like the size reduces every six market days, but okay, it’s not all bad.
P.S we just remembered the days of fiber active; it was perfect when taken with milk like cereal. This was all before potion and quality control took over.
What other biscuit is worth it these days? Tell us in the comments.
