If I were a rich man

I dislike things that taste sweet, as a rule, so for occasions where sweet biscuits are necessary (or the only thing available), rich tea are great because they fulfil that function without tasting particularly sweet at all.

I think they have a distinctive taste. Things quite often taste strong to me that taste bland to other people, however.

Yes, maybe bland was a bard word, as they do have quite a strong taste. It is (to my mind) a curiously uninteresting and, well, bland flavour, though.

However, it is useful to know that there are genuine people in the world who like them (or at least have a use for them).

A bad word, obviously. I'm not trying to claim it's some sort of Shakespearean insult.

Is this a Rich Tea I see before me?

I definitely have a use for them - they stop me snacking so much; if I don't want a rich tea biscuit from the pack right here, I'm clearly not actually hungry and therefore shouldn't get up and find some chocolate.

Ah, the dwarf bread approach to dieting :)

Sadly I'm not convinced that it's any more effective than any other form of dieting....
