That's a mf biscuit

I had biscuits and gravy on my last trip to the States. Scones are very different. Much fluffier. Mostly the scones I've had have fruit in them too.
Edit: our gravy is nothing like the one I got served either
The biscuits you had were fluffier. I promise we have biscuits that are 'scone-like'.
Fair enough. I was quite happy with the biscuits I had. They fit the gravy nicely as a more savoury dish. I wouldn't have liked scones with what I had.
biscuits are hard and snappable, what's pictured is an english muffin.
i agree that this isn't a scone though, scones are.. doughier? like, an english muffin has the elasticity of bread, while scones are way denser and not elastic.
That is absolutely not an English muffin. I'm simply stating that we call that a biscuit in America.
