Where I'm from we serve them with a sausage patty in between the halves, and gravy on top. No one eats just a plain biscuit by itself... And they're supposed to be fluffy and moist, not 'crumby.' What was described in the original comment is exactly what a plain, stale biscuit tastes like. That's like an American taking a cold can of chili, dumping it on a slice of bread, and talking about how terrible beans on toast is...

I am American and I stand by what I said. American biscuits are not like muffins (which are closer to cake) and should not be spongey.
