Fig biscuits..........any nice ones out there ?

[Dave7]

I was responding to @Dec66

I can't remember the last time I ate a fig roll. Dried figs a bit gritty and dates are revolting on every level. Apricots and dried mango on the other hand...

The OP has just bought bib shorts and is also talking about trying energy gels in another thread, I would suggest that if adding figs into the mix, he wears the bibs over the jersey for quick removal!

Vickster...........do you not listen??? I have the ones with a metal zip all along the necessary area. Problem solved

I think we always used to get Jacob's but I quite like all of them.

Fig rolls do rather badly here: 27 retro biscuits ranked worst to best

Aldi fig rolls, or Kroger, whichever I'm at.
Jaffa Cakes, I have to go to Aldi.
Our Aldi has just had a remodeling.
Still not nearly as much cycling stuff as you all have.

I eat Higates flapjacks from Home Bargains. 29p each for a 120g bar. They come in various flavours. Some have a layer of milk chocolate on top and some a white layer. My favourite is the cherry one. They have chunks of cherry in them! They are quite most too not like those fancy ones made from the contents of a budgie's cage!

Anyone else ever noticed how a fig roll end on looks like a section of a sprint rim? Truly the cyclist's biscuit.
