That is a Jamboree (and the orange ones made with the marmalade instead of jam are better):thumbs_up
We call them Mikados over here. They are made by jacobs. Kimberly, mikados and coconut creams where the three. But if i'm right, you only get kimberlys in England?

INGREDIENTS:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
5 tablespoons chilled vegetable shortening
1 cup buttermilk
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 425F. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Cut shortening into the flour mixture with a pastry blender until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.
Add buttermilk, tossing with a fork, until dough holds together.
Turn dough onto a floured surface and form into a disk. Knead lightly just a few times until smooth.
Pat dough to a 3/4-inch thickness. Using a biscuit cutter or glass dipped in flour, cut out biscuits. Place biscuits about 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Gather the trimmings and repeat forming and cutting.
Bake about 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown.
Makes 12.
It's a southern staple.

Even I'm not that mean - crazy southerners:pQuote:

By any chance were you raised by wolves? How can you possibly call sausage gravy - "puke????Quote:
