For the NZ/Aus/UK etc people, a biscuit in the US is sort of like a dumpling crossed with a pikelet I think.
And for you US people a biscuit to us is a cookie to you. So if we areeating a bickie it will be an oreo/chock chip/plain whatever biscuit,not something you'd wanna put gravey on :vomit:
Definitions of biscuit on the Web:
[size="-1"][*]small round bread leavened with baking-powder or soda[*]any of various small flat sweet cakes (`cookie' is the Americanterm) [/size]
A bagel here is the same thing to us.
Also we don't have 'candy' here in NZ we have lollies. Trying to think of anything else.
I have fun when chatting with my friend in Ohio about all this stuff,we still find differences after knowing eachother for 6 years.

I love love love biscuits and gravy... except Idon't put sausage in mine like most people do, because I'm a vegetarian Since without the sausage flavoring it can be a bit bland, I add ina little teeny bit of pure maple. I hate syrup, but I like a bit toflavor the gravy a bit. Lots of fresh ground pepper, too! Biscuits andgravy are a really popular thing around here. We cheat and buy Grand'sbiscuits... the kind that come in little cardboard tubes that you justpop open and seperate the biscuits. Pop them on a pan, pop that in theoven, and voila!

Bangers are sausages. Gravy is gravy everywhere I think.
In NZ a pikelet is a mini version of what a pancake would be in thestates and our pancake is a very thin and big thing, it's just egg milkand flour. And it's quite a runny mixture whereas a pikelet rises whencooked and is thicker.
I'm with cheryl13 on the soda thing, we just called it by the brandname, coke or pepsi or whatever. Or if there are heaps to choose fromthen cold drinks or fizzy drinks.
Oh yeah and leer means to oggle at someone in a perverted creepy sortof way, I noticed a lot of US people use leery as a word for cautiousand that always makes me giggle. Hmm what else. We call the trunk theboot, the stick shift is a manual, a hood is a bonnet...though it'sonly really my Ohio friend I have noticed use trunk/stick shift etc.

This is a good topic.
I will eat fat freeyogurt, cereal (Special K, Cornflakes,Rice Crispies) toast with peanut butter and jam but not all on the sameday.
When I'm really spoiled my husband will make me either French Toast, acheese omelet or bacon and eggs (eggs have to be cooked real well donenone of this runny yolk for me.
Aren't English Muffins similar to Crumpets?

I love learning little tidbits of information from other countries. Aren't chips also called crisps in Europe?
