These are used for joining together pieces of wood, usually for furniture. Don’t eat ‘em.

Then why are they called biscuits??

[–] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago

Because they look like biscuits. The tool you use to cut in the holes you use to put them in is literally called a biscuit joiner.

Also they’re delicious. But don’t fuckin’ eat em.

Oh. Well, at least they won't crumble in my coffee.
