The Meaning and Etymology of the Word: Biscuit

Have you ever wondered about the origins of this delicious snack? The word "biscuit" has a fascinating history that goes all the way back to ancient Rome. "Bis" means twice in Latin, and "coctus" means cooked. The Romans would bake bread twice to make it last longer, and this is where the word "biscuit" comes from.
