It’s not though, the consistency is different. These bitches are buttery and flakey, and savory. Closer to a crescent roll if you’re familliar. Scones are great too and all but ime they have a different consistency entirely and aim for sweet instead of savory.
It’s different than a scone, which is dense. Southern USA has a special kind of flour we use when we make our biscuits that has lower protein and gluten content. It makes for a much softer dough, and a softer end result.
I want desperately to leave my country and go to another one, bring some of our soft red winter wheat seeds with me, and begin making southern (US) style biscuits for the masses somewhere else. I’d make biscuits n gravy and I’d share them with the world.
In case you aren’t being an intentional dumbass; in American ‘biscuit’ means savory buttery pastry roll. Each of the items you listed would be referred to here as ‘cookies’.
I know what they are. It was a bit of a deliberate play on words, swapping the American and English definitions of biscuit. A joke that was perhaps a bit too subtle or too British for Americans to comprehend.
I got it but, to me at least, the delivery/wording made it unfunny for me. I took it as being intentionally thick and condescending, which is also how I read this response.
What type of biscuit though? Hobnobs? Custard Creams? Honestly I’m struggling to think of a biscuit that would go well with chicken.

But yeah all listed pastries are delicious!
American scones are very sweet compared to what they make in Britain. They will put sweet cream or jam on them to sweeten them up.

I’m guessing they are asking because in British English biscuits are cookies?
