The recipe for baking powder bisquits, the only kind I've ever heard of. Flour, milk, shortening, baking powder, salt. You put butter on them and eat them with a meal, like a slice of bread or a roll. Bisquits and gravy must be something they eat down South, I had never heard of it, must be something different. I have never heard of eating bisquits for breakfast.
What should be sent to the UK would be chocolate chip cookies, home made. I wonder if there is anyone who doesn't like real chocolate chip cookies. They are said to have been invented in Massachusetts so that's American.

You poor, deprived soul. Biscuits and Gravy absolutely rock. Mom's from Oklahoma and I grew up having them for breakfast on weekends.
I had a pen pal in England that I wrote to through high school. She came over for a visit and flipped out over my mom's Southern style cooking. Biscuits and Gravy, Chicken Fried Steak with mashed potatoes and cream gravy, banana pudding, peach cobbler, fried chicken, pinto beans with hamhocks, corn bread, fried potatoes, turnip greens, sweet iced tea, etc... She said if she stayed much longer she wouldn't be able to fit in the coach seat on the plane. Southern cooking can be unhealthy as hell, but it sure tastes good.
I'd agree not too many adults eat but as a kid, I regularly ate Jello and so did most kids I knew - I grew up in PA.
I love Jello. I've spent so much time in hospitals hooked up to tubes and wires, that to me, having Jello means I'm on the road to improvement. It gives me a sense of comfort to eat it.
For what it's worth, I don't like sweets. I prefer savory. I'll always turn down chocolate, cake and cookies. The sweetest I'm willing to go is fruit. I LOVE fruit. I've been known to make a fruit run in the middle of the night because I'm jonesing for cantaloupe, fresh figs, blueberries and mangoes.

Fresh figs in Canada? That's a laugh! I can go into my Mississippi backyard in the summer and eat them off the tree if the birds hadn't got them first.
