Talk:Nice biscuit

message: The last sentence is very subjective. It needs to be removed or changed

message: ..."It has also been suggested throughout Nice(France),the biscuit was invented by explorer "Nathan Ice" for his travels. Hence why the biscuit is called "Nice Nice" in this region of France." sounds like a deliberate dead_granny story. Can anyone support it? DavidFarmbrough (talk) 00:48, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Nice or Nis (as in french) can anyone add light to this. Arnotts Australia web site says they are named after the french city so how do you pronounce the biscuit name?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.32.57.204 (talk) 09:34, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  pronunciation??? 

message: There needs to be consistent capitalisation or non-capitalisation of the 'n' in 'Nice'. The caption under the picture uses a capital, whereas it is not capitalised throughout the article. Non-capitalisation suggests the name is pronounced 'nice' (not nasty), but the article seems to lean more towards the pronunciation being the same as that of the French city.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.1.228.143 (talk) 20:07, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

replies: text: No, because it isn't a nice, a biscuit.  It is a nice biscuit, just like a chocolate biscuit shouldn't be chocolate (biscuit). It's an adjective but not a noun in it's own right. Novalia (talk) 15:01, 7 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Not so. It's perfectly acceptable to have a Rich Tea, a Gypsy Cream, a Bourbon or a Custard Cream. Likewise a Nice. 31.53.218.245 (talk) 17:22, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

message: "British company Huntley & Palmers made a nice biscuit as early as 1904." → does this imply they made distasteful biscuits prior to that date? ^^ benzband (talk) 08:22, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nice… or not? 

message: ...there must have been a version of this article that stated, with reliable sources, the origin of the name. At present, all we have is "The name is spelled identically to that of Nice, the French town in the Alpes-Maritimes" which is undoubtedly true, though it's also spelled identically to English word "nice", which has a variety of meanings. Now, I'm happy to believe that the biscuit is named after the French town (and should be pronounced accordingly), but at present the article gives no reason to believe that to be the case, so I've removed that line and hope a biscuitologist will be along to restore some sort of reliably-sourced origin.

replies: text: that source, for what it's worth, doesn't actually dispute Nice in France as the source of the name. But it doesn't look all that reliable, otherwise. Ghughesarch (talk) 00:54, 21 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: It says "Australian biscuit maker, Arnott, however, claims that they made the authentic version of the Nice Biscuit. Their biscuits were originally named as ‘faite a Nice’ or ‘made in Nice’ (Nice is southern French city). Later on, the ‘faite a’ was dropped and only Nice was retained as it was difficult to emboss the words on the biscuits."  I read all of this as "a claim". Perhaps you can find a better source.
