Biscuits. Tea and biscuits. They are a great snack to wash down with a steaming cup of tea as you kick off another busy week. But pray tell, why are biscuits just unique?

This is why: They make your ice breaking tea discussions really easy to crack. In a way, yes. You see, when you share a plate of the biscuits with a business colleague, or a new friend, they will most naturally turn towards you with a smile and will eagerly join in to hear what you have to discuss.

Biscuits are some baked form of flour, sugar, fat and water, potentially covered in one layer of chocolate or sandwiching a jam or cream filling.

The Britons will recommend that in such a biscuit and tea sitting, you eat only one.

Haha..here in Kenya let me recommend that you pick a number of munches as your conversation goes on.

This is why: The first biscuit is just a pure hit of pleasure, and the second one extends this pleasure. By the third, however, the biscuit will be settling into your tummy. So grab a number of them!

Some more advise? Please put them on a plate, if there is one nearby. If you walk around eating a biscuit without a plate, you are clearly failing to catch the crumbs in your hand, and it looks far too risky when balanced on the rim of your tea cup.

So, biscuits, how do you eat yours?
