Biscoff substitutes

My kids love Biscoff cookies. They either tell me to grab a lot from the sky club or they do it themselves when they travel with me. I turn into a kettle and grab fistfuls of Biscoffs into my luggage. I don't care, it's for my kids. =)

Anyways, grocery shopping last night and found this. They taste just like the original.



Another embarrassing thing that I do with my family.... We stock up on extra bagels from JFK.

I like them, too. Luckily they are available in my local Walgreens and at Kroger. Yum.

Haagen-Dazs now has a flavor called "Spiced Caramel Biscuit" which is Biscoff-like cookies chopped up in caramel ice cream. It's awesome.

Walgreens and Publix often have Biscoff on sale, last week it was $2.50 for a sleeve of cookies at Publix, this week Walgreens has them on sale for 2/$4.

The Kroger by me always has a massive tree overflowing with Biscoffs on sale. We grab a pack every nite and they're wrapped in pairs so make great snacks.

They also sell a Biscoff spread that's pretty good on bagels if you want something sweet. Use it anywhere you'd use Nutella.

When I read the thread title, my first reaction was... doesn't exist.

Before they were widely available (online or in stores) I even resorted to baking them myself^ (Belgian spice cookie recipe -comes out remarkably close!)

They've got Biscoff brand cookies at all 3 of my local grocery store chains, and they aren't priced too crazy either.

I bought 360 of them a few weeks ago. You even get sky pesos for them.

If you were paying attention, you'd know you can go to www.biscoff.com/delta to buy the cookies and get SkyMiles too!

I haven't figured to see if this is a good deal or not, but hey, I guess you could put this on your rewards credit card and get double.

But how do they taste below 30,000 feet?

I'm one of those who believes these things taste better up in the air.
