Oreo is a brand name not a style of biscuit. Also bourbons are better in every way than whatever oreos are

Is a layered cake a type of sandwich?

No because the frosting goes not only between the layers of cake but also around it. If anything it's a stuffed frosting dumpling.

Well at least we don't call scones biscuits. A biscuit is cooked twice, that's literally what the word means.

Biscuits aren’t cooked twice anymore.

Yes they are. It's just Americans who butcher the term and call a scone a biscuit.

No they aren’t. Not since the old days when the word originated from. It’s a French word, anyhow.

And you’re not French. So whatever

Yes they are. Biscuits are made the world over. Many cookies are in fact biscuits. They are baked, then dried.

Your link proves my point:

In most of North America, nearly all hard sweet biscuits are called "cookies", while the term "biscuit" is used for a soft, leavened quick bread similar to a less sweet version of a scone.

Americans made a scone and then started calling it a biscuit. That's the only inconsistency. Americans are wrong.

However they are right about aluminum.

Only on the internet can you find a full on war underneath a shitpost about Oreos
