Nope. Scones and we call "biscuits" in America are similar in texture, but while scones can be more on the sweet side, "biscuits" tend to be more savory (and fluffly). What I consider a "scone" is what I see at Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts...specifically meant to be eaten with a cup of coffee. A biscuit can be made into a sandwich by putting bacon, egg & cheese into it. Or eaten with chicken gravy doused atop it as in the picture above (gonna have some good old fashioned Southern biscuits-with-gravy next week!!!). THAT being said, I'll give you my contribution...the SEMITA. [img:$uid]http://www.hecktictravels.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Semita-de-Yema_600x428.jpg[/img:$uid] It's delicious dunked in coffee.

I was referring to the texture and the look, not the flavor. I have eaten both, scones and biscuits, many times and I find that biscuits look more like scones than muffins, albeit with a savory taste. Scones are often eaten with whipped cream and jam, served with tea, but personally, I prefer tea with savory stuff and , like you said, sweet stuff like scones with a cup of good, strong coffee. Just like in Holland.
It´s interesting though that some cultures prefer savory snacks with black tea, and others have no problem with tea and sweet snacks. I always have my sweet snacks and cakes and stuff with coffee.
