We definitely don’t call them that.
Also we have Bourbon Biscuits which are just lovely.

Yeah that British person was trying to wind up OP.
Bourbons shit all over oreos too, oreos are perhaps the most overrated biscuit out there.
Calling any cookie a biscuit gives me the urge to buy a musket and tricorn hat
Hah.
Why are custard creams boring compared to bourbons?
Beige.
Though I love them both.
I'm custard cream till I die. Bourbons are the duller biscuit. Naturally, as a minor and inconsequential personal preference, I will fight to the death all who disagree.
Can we really call the Oreo cream custard if there's no egg or milk, tho? Or are you talking about a 3rd thing and I completely misunderstood?
Bourbons and custard creams are possibly the two biggest sandwich biscuits in the UK, bourbon is basically a chocolate variant of the custard cream.
Ah, I see. Thanks :D
“Sandwich biscuit”
Quite
As a term for grouping a type of biscuit yes. Nobody in their right mind would ask for a pack of chocolate sandwich biscuits and mean oreos though.
Someone really needs to start making actual bourbon biscuits.
Like, yeah, they're the best and all that. But, what if I need that bit of something to get me through the day? I can't have a drink at 9 am because it's frowned upon. But a biscuit? Yeah, that's calm.
If only drinking wasn’t frowned upon. Why is the only time I can have a pint at 6am is if I’m in the airport?
I mean that costs so much more money! 😂
Oreos taste like nothing anyway. So not a loss in my book.
If there's no hobnobs, no custard creams, no bourbon, no fly cemeteries, no Garibaldis, no choccy digestives
I'd still rather eat a pink wafer before an Orio
They're like the biscuit equivalent of beige
The part I'm most offended by is thinking Oreos are chocolate. I know chocolate, and you, Oreo, are no chocolate
Yeah, what even is it? Just some weird black crumb shit
You mean Hydrox, right? The original chocolate sandwich biscuit.
The fact that the US considers Oreos edible is enough reason to resist US neocolonialism.
Yankee Doodle went to TOWN on that British ass
And sent the decent biccies packing aye nice one
That's what happens when you eat too many Neos
Well at least they don't call it Hydrox 💀
Hydrox supremacy 😤😤
