Hello, this is Six Minute English from BBC Learning English.
I'm Neil.
And I'm Rob.
I see you've been tucking into the biscuits again, Rob.
Well, I have Neil.
You can't beat a bite on a biscuit for a quick and easy, sweet treat.
They make me feel good, as long as I don't eat too many.
So these are your edible comforters.
The comforter is something that makes you feel relaxed and feel good.
Put another way, it is your comfort food, which is what we're talking about in this program.
Yes, like biscuits, comfort food is snacks and meals we like to stuff our faces with,
even if it's not always good for us.
We'll be discussing what actually makes us eat the stuff.
But how about a question to feast on, Rob?
Patrick Bertletti from the USA holds the Guinness World Record for eating the most cream-filled biscuits in one minute.
But do you know how many biscuits he had?
Was it a, two, b, seven, or c, 15?
Well, based on my biscuit eating skills, I'd say 15.
