National Biscuit Month - "A biscuit is a kind of small, flat-baked bread product that is usually made with a chemical leavener such as baking powder. The exact meaning varies in different parts of the world. A biscuit can be a hard baked sweet or savoury product like a small, flat cake, which in North America may be called a "cookie" or "cracker". The term biscuit also applies to sandwich-type biscuits, where a layer of 'cream' or icing is sandwiched between two biscuits. Some of the original biscuits were British naval hard tack- "
"In American English, a "biscuit" is a small bread made with baking powder or baking soda as a leavening agent rather than yeast. This roughly corresponds to a "scone" in British English usage."
"Biscuits have a firm browned crust and a soft interior, similar to British scones or the bannock from the Shetland Isles. A sweet biscuit layered or topped with fruit (typically strawberries), juice-based syrup, and cream is called shortcake. In Canada, both sweet and savory are referred to as "biscuits," "baking powder biscuits," or "tea biscuits," although "scone" is also starting to be used."

"Biscuits are a common feature of Southern U.S. cuisine and are often
made with buttermilk. They are traditionally served as a side dish with a
meal. As a breakfast item they are often eaten with butter and a sweet
condiment. With other meals they are usually eaten with butter or gravy
instead of sweet condiments. However, biscuits and gravy (biscuits
covered in country gravy) are usually served for breakfast, sometimes
as the main course."
