But despite the small fortune that I paid, what I really missed were Marie biscuits. As a child, Marie biscuits were synonymous with tea, though I was not allowed to have tea. Marie biscuits were also my first partners in crime when it came to donning the culinary hat. They also have some of the lowest calories per biscuit, and coming from a family of doctors, this is probably why they have always been my family’s favourite teatime snacks. Interestingly, my fascination with Marie biscuits later helped me answer a question on these evergreen biscuits in a college quiz.
