Last week, the editor shared with you the childhood snack - crisp noodles (click to review the dry noodles), many friends have left a message saying that compared to the "unhealthy" dry noodles, biscuits can be described as a delicious, healthy and advanced snack recognized as a child.
Biscuits must have been a daily hoarding necessity at that time, no matter when you are hungry, you can come to a piece to fill your hunger, sweet, milky, salty... The more you eat, the better it tastes, and quietly Mimi eats too much and is found to be scolded.
It is said that biscuits were indeed invented to feed seafarers, and during long-term voyages, bread contained a high moisture content (35%-40%) that was not suitable as reserve food, so a bread with a low moisture content was invented - biscuits.
The English word for biscuits is Biscuit, which is derived from the French bis (again) and cuit (baked), which can be translated as "Biscay". There is also a small story about the origin of the name
A long time ago, a British ship sailed on the sea in the Gulf of Biscay near France, when suddenly the fierce wind swept the bad waves towards the ship. The seafarers fought desperately against the wind and waves, and finally came to an uninhabited island. When the wind stopped, they went to the cabin to find food, and the flour, sugar, and cream that could be stored were all soaked. Later, they mixed these things together, kneaded them into small balls, and then cooked them over fire and ate them. It turned out that this roasted dough was fragrant and crispy, and delicious.
Inspired by this, the British used this method to make small cakes, and in order to commemorate the encounter in the Bay of Biscay, they named these baked doughs "Biscay".
Nowadays, the variety of pastries has nourished our taste buds, but the cookie box that was ordinary to the point of not even having a name at home is still an irreplaceable public snack in our hearts.
Those childhood-flavored cookies, let's reminisce about it
Essential calcium milk biscuits for gifts
In the era of material scarcity, "calcium" and "milk" are strictly in the sense of a high-level nutritional supply, so biscuits related to "calcium" and "milk" are also high-grade and healthy foods.
In the eyes of Qingdao people, the term calcium milk biscuit does not need to be explained. From 1950 to 2020, its taste nourished the taste buds of four generations of Qingdao people from childhood to old age, from babies to the elderly, from toothless to toothless. No Qingdao person can refuse to eat calcium milk biscuits.

Born in 1950, Qingdao Food Co., Ltd., the earliest green food mainly produces small snacks such as candy and dried fruits, and the main product is the sorghum that everyone is familiar with. Later, according to the nutritional research raw material formula required for children's development, calcium milk biscuits were born. Like other side foods, green calcium and milk biscuits are served by ticket, and there is only a limit of two packs per household.
Every New Year's Festival, calcium milk biscuits are also the most decent gifts in the eyes of Qingdao people, and when visiting the homes of important relatives, they must bring calcium milk biscuits.

The taste of calcium milk biscuit crisp pine may not be too liked by people who have not eaten it, but Qingdao people just like it. Before it was dipped in water to eat, now brew milk, coffee to eat, from breakfast to snacks, a few pages (Qingdao people say that the piece is the page) calcium milk biscuits are always the first choice for Qingdao people to satisfy hunger.
The more you eat the shallot biscuits that get on top
Onions are really a magical existence, many people do not like to eat onions, but they are very fond of onion flavored things, such as onion-scented biscuits, salty and crispy, full of oil, the more you eat the more you get on top.
Shanghainese have a lot of say in the onion-scented biscuits.
On the eve of the 10th anniversary of the National Day, Shanghai Cathay Food Factory successfully developed a new food, with a shallot-flavored biscuit printed with a evergreen pattern in the middle, which was used to present the 10th anniversary of the National Day, implying that the motherland is evergreen. Taikang evergreen biscuits also come from this.
After that, each small shop will have a large glass bottle with bulk evergreen biscuits, and everyone will line up in a big bag and say that the whole family loves to eat it when they buy it home.
There is also a three-cow evergreen biscuit, which is also green onion flavored, and it is also salty and sweet, salty and sweet, and you can't stop eating it.
A few packs of evergreen biscuits and a pack of bright milk are the fastest and most authentic breakfast standard for Shanghainese.
There is also a kind of white-bearded old life star on crutches of Jiuzhou strange flavor shallot oil biscuits, full of a large bag, green onions rich in flavor, how many people holidays, spring travel preferential treatment.
Countless children are crazy about animal cookies
I believe that everyone was obsessed with animal cookies when they were young.
In addition to a pack of cookies full of bear patterns, there is also a bag of biscuits that collect various small animal shapes such as cows, tigers, rabbits, horses, sheep, monkeys, chickens, and dogs. The taste of these cookies is relatively ordinary, mainly because various patterns have captured everyone's heart.
When this editor ate when he was a child, he would pour out a bag of animal biscuits and classify them according to the pattern, first eat the patterns he didn't like, and keep them for eating slowly. The same goes for number cookies and alphabet biscuits.
I don't know what brand of animal biscuits everyone eats, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai eat more Kang Yuan from Shanghai, Kang Yuan's finger biscuits and Tizi biscuits, but also in childhood you compete for me to grab delicious.
Friends in the north, there are many similar to the old Beijing animal biscuits, the brands are various, but the packaging seems to be quite uniform, roughly long like this
Thin crisp and refreshing soda cookies
There are sweet, savory and original soda crackers called comb crackers), which are also often eaten at that time. Unlike other biscuits, soda biscuits are thinner, crunchier, less greasy to eat, and more popular with elders.
And soda cookies also have a wonderful use, that is, they can be used as bread flour. Shanghainese like to eat tonkatsu, and pork chops need bread flour, in the early years, bread powder is not easy to buy, so Shanghainese people followed the law, combing biscuits into fine pieces, as bread powder, made out of the pork chops have a different flavor.
Now, the saying that "eating soda biscuits to nourish the stomach and lose weight" is actually incorrect, because some soda biscuits are high in fat, and excessive intake will increase the burden on the stomach. The so-called "stomach biscuits", in which the content of stomach ingredients is extremely low, relying on it to nourish the stomach, is not very realistic.
Everyone just treats it as a normal cookie to eat in moderation, and you can also DIY some creative small desserts at home, such as nougat brushed biscuits, and it is very appropriate to use soda biscuits to make.
Later, sandwich biscuits, fruity biscuits, chocolate chip cookies, wafer biscuits, etc., the taste of biscuits has become more and more numerous, the patterns have become more and more abundant, and we seem to eat less and less.
However, as long as we see these cookies where we are, we still can't help but buy a pack, taste the taste of childhood, some cookies are still charming, can't think of it when we don't eat, once we eat it, it really can't stop it.
