I'm absolutely addicted to these things. Sort of like a traditional lebkuchen, but with a different mouthfeel and ingredients like anise and honey. Oh man.
Stateside, have to admit I'm a Nutter Butter fan.
Those Aachener Printen sound nice; beetroot is a main ingredient? Guess on my way to Lübeck and Wuppertal (eventually) I'll have to stop in Aachen too.
If I'm in a UA lounge, I'll always grab a Walker's shortbread. For Pepperidge Farm, Chessmen, though original Milano did it well too.
Lu comes to mind, as do various cookies in a Japanese convenience store.
