The origins of the word biscuit ("twice-cooked") should be mentioned, as should the technical and legal difference between a biscuit and a cake (the former goes soft when stale, the latter goes hard). Also, why is there a picture of a scone on the page? Does this reflect colonial usage?[[User:DDWatkinsIII|DDWatkinsIII]] 08:13, 30 April 2007 (EDT) | The origins of the word biscuit ("twice-cooked") should be mentioned, as should the technical and legal difference between a biscuit and a cake (the former goes soft when stale, the latter goes hard).
