I looked online, and it looks like they are made in Blackpool - Devonshire Road, Llantarnam (South Wales) and Dublin in Ireland. Maybe it's primarily a British thing. It says it was brought from the US to Britian in 1956, so maybe it was some guy in Maryland's original recipe that never hit it off here and went straight overseas. I know I never heard of them, but the description sounds yummy |

I thought Maryland (the state) was named after Mary (Jesus' Mom), and it was Mary's Land. ...maybe the cookies have a religious connection.
OR...Lina could be right. |

I think that English Muffins can only be found in America. At least my wife assures me that she never once saw English Muffins while growing up in England (maybe they exist there now). So if English Muffins are only in America, it makes sense that Maryland Cookies would only be in England. However, Black Forest Cake can definitely be found in the Black Forest. |

I do, however, like the theory that Maryland doesn't exist, being perfectly willing to consider that that area two blocks away from where I grew up in Washington DC was just a hallucination. I can add it to my growing list of nonexistent places:

I would guess that Poland has something like that, since northern Europeans eat a lot of sausages. But I don't think the city of Hamburg had anything like hamburgers until they were brought there by Americans. I'm not sure about Frankfurt and frankfurters. And I think there really is some connection between baloney and the Italian city of Bologna. |

English muffins: we have 'em, but we just call them muffins
Frankfurters definitely originate from Frankfurt, and the idea of minced beef shaped into a flattish roundish thing does come from Hamburg.
My particular favourite national item is the French Horn. In France, it is called the 'cor anglais'.....english horn. |

I live in Maryland. No, we don't have Maryland cookies. About the closest thing we have are Burger Cookies, which are the greatest cookies ever made. I think they're only made in Baltimore; i've only seen one brand. Imagine a sugar cookie type thing covered in chocolate frosting. More frosting than cookie, in fact. I couldn't find a homepage for the company, but this link mentions them: http://www.sptimes.com/News/011901/SuperBowl2001/Downtown_will_leave_t.shtml |

...round toast with nooks & crannies.
Also, scones usually have some sort of fruit in them, blueberries, cranberries, & are served with devonshire cream. (I don't know why it's called devonshire cream, it's just homemade whipped cream...unless maybe the idea originally comes from devonshire.) I'm making cranberry scones & cream for my daughter's birthday party on Saturday. |

Nick! Nooooo!!!! :cheese: French Horn is a term used in English-speaking countries only and us tightly-wound hornplayers HATE that! It's a horn, a cor, a corno, a waldhorn but it's not a French horn. Although there are horns made in France. But the really good ones come from Germany (Alexanders) and Japan (Yamahas) and custom ones come from lots of places for lots of money.
The English horn or cor anglais is a double-reed instrument which is sort of like an oboe on steroids and sounds like a contralto with a head cold. But in a good way.
And I write this will all kinds of affection and only the kindest of intentions. Now I'm really hungry, too... |

Scones have raisins or sultanas (what ever the difference is). Maegan I think you are describing a Devon Cream Tea which is made with clotted cream and strawberry jam. Very popular in the tourist traps of the English south coast. |

Crumpets are shaped like burgers with holes in, that you cook under a grill and melt butter into (delicious! lol)... http://www.warburtons.co.uk/bakery_snacks/images/recipe-marmite.jpg
Cream teas are lovely and in Devon in summer (great beaches) you can't find a tea shop that DOESN'T sell 'em!... http://www.broadwayhouse.com/creamtea.html - that hasn't got the nicest picture but ah well, can't win 'em all
oh yeah cream teas do origionate from Devon!

NO, wrong again i'm afraid.
An English muffin is very different to an american muffin - the 'round toast' description was closest; american muffins are more like cake than toast. You eat an english muffin hot with lots and lots of butter and possibly jam or melted cheeses.
Also: crumpets have a related species called a pikelet which you only seem to be able to get up north (england, that is), they are like crumpets (with all the holes) but larger and flatter, and in my humble northern opinion much better |

Devonshire cream is heavy whipping cream, cream cheese & a bit of sugar...I THINK cream of tartar...I know there was cream of tartar in the scones...so maybe I am confusing that particular ingrediant. But there is no jam in it.

Yes, I am an American but I have relatives in Poland. Kielbasa (aka Polish sausage) is real. Although Hillshire Farm does a terrible job of making it. You can get it smoked or fresh. Actually there's lots of different kinds of kielbasa. If you get a chance, go to a Polish deli and try it. It's very addictive. |

There are American style English muffins. They look like round toast. I had a bag of crumpets, and they looked just like the American English muffins. Muffins in general are made sort of in the same fashion as banana bead. It's cake-like.
Saxman, that picture looks like the crumpets I got...and like the Thomas' English muffins (American style, I guess).

For those of you who don't know, Little Debbie is the brand name for sugar-laden, lard-riddled, hydrogenated oil-soaked snack cakes sold here in America at convenience stores. Mmmm-mmmm-mmm.. Most are priced at 25 cents, at least half of what the other cakes cost. Admittedly, Debbies do not match Hostess or Entenman's snacks for quality or flavor, but when you can satisfy a munchies-craved back seat of passengers for 2 dollars, it's a good thing. The scary part is, they even sell Debbie knock-offs at Dollar stores around here. Now we know what happened to Jimmy Hoffa. |

No! Muffins do not have holes to melt the butter in; that's crumpets. They are not the same thing, which is why it's so weird that they changed 'crumpets' to 'english muffins' when they 'translated' the Harry Potter books into American.
An English muffin (or 'muffin' as we call them) is floury and toasty. You grill or toast it, then cut it in half and butter it.
The more rubber (before grilling) crumpet has many holes to absorb the melting butter. Mmmmm.
You can also buy 'American style muffins', now more commonly called 'muffins', although the confusion in rampant in my house. |

Americans visiting Britain should not leave without trying Pontefract Cakes - any good restaurant or teashop should be pleased to make these specially (delicious when hot) even if they aren't on the menu. Another cake to ask for is 'Kendal Mint Cake' - you can only get this at the poshest and most expensive establishments - but well worth it. |

I found this very interesting and comical. I am inclined to believe the correct answer is the second choice: a random selection from the cookie company. I am also from Maryland and have never heard of Maryland cookies, but then again, would we call them Maryland cookies or just cookies? If it's a Berger cookie, now that's a Maryland cookie or more specifically, a Baltimore cookie. By the way, the correct pronunciation is Balmer, Merlin. Some people say we talk funny. |

So glad to see the Berger Cookie thing cleared up. Indeed, they are scrumptious, but diabetics beware!
On Maryland's name: Maryland's name honors Queen Henrietta Maria (1609-1669), wife of Charles I (1600-1649), King of Great Britain and Ireland, who signed the 1632 charter establishing the Maryland colony. <http://www.mdarchives.state.md.us/msa/mdmanual/01glance/html/name.html>
(And to further clarify, the state capital is Annapolis, not Baltimore, a fact about which, quite sadly, many Marylanders are not aware.) |

I've lived in Maryland all my life. I knew as a small child, and can honestly say I do not know anyone who doesn't know that Annapolis is our state capital. There are many people from other states who do not know this fact, but I assure the educated among and some not so well educated are well aware. There are two standard field trips that every child attending a Maryland school takes: Annapolis (while studying government) and the Smithsonian Museums(while studying art, history, natural science, etc.) I went to the Smithsonian a total of 11 times by the time I graduated high school. Maryland is a great place to live, and not just for the Berger cookies; although, they are an added bonus. |

As a lifetime Marylander and former Maryland high school teacher, I can say that I took those same trips, but they are not mandatory in the curriculum. (Philadelphia is a substitute in some cases.) I can also say that I've had plenty of bright students who did not know that Annapolis is the capital.

Ok, im not going to go into equivilant names, but here in england at least, there are several cakey type things that have been mentioned, so here are some pictures to help clarify:
Drop ssones/scotch pancakes (depending on where you live) are sweet and cakey, often with rasins or sultanas (sultanas-white grapes, rasins-red grapes). American breakfast pancakes seem to look similar, but that may just be me being ignorant: http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.easy-pancake-recipe.com/images/drop%20scones.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.easy-pancake-recipe.com/&h=140&w=200&sz=11&hl=en&start=3&sig2=5dsFVYD8fGyJA1togCnRQw&tbnid=TYkWu5nM40EgvM:&tbnh=73&tbnw=104&ei=P01JR7uPAZL00QSxlYHpCQ&prev=/images?q=drop+scones&gbv=2&svnum=10&hl=en (the second recipe)
English muffin/teacake is a sweet bun type thing, about the size of your spread hand which you split and toast, then cover in butter and jam etc. Often has sultanas/rasins: http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/1371967/2/istockphoto_1371967_toasted_teacake.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.istockphoto.com/file_closeup/?id=1371967&refnum=117315&h=253&w=380&sz=27&hl=en&start=2&sig2=v32Kdwg3d52SYmEku1NnXQ&tbnid=QDjpudr6ZuYUjM:&tbnh=82&tbnw=123&ei=sU1JR5vcO5Ku0QSY5cjlCQ&prev=/images?q=toasted+tea+cake&gbv=2&svnum=10&hl=en

Scones are heavy cakes (can be savoury) which you split and smother in jam and clotted cream (gotta be clotted 😛 otherwise its not artery-clogging enough). The savoury ones are often cheesy: http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/465936/2/istockphoto_465936_toasting_crumpets.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.istockphoto.com/file_closeup/?id=465936&refnum=323268&h=285&w=380&sz=46&hl=en&start=3&sig2=1tWqJWqgxlB0Y4vCqc1nWg&tbnid=mk1fFgoRD3zBJM:&tbnh=92&tbnw=123&ei=FU5JR_QHkrbTBN3nyN0J&prev=/images?q=crumpets&gbv=2&svnum=10&hl=en |

After reading every post on here i've worked through a whole pack of maryland cookies. haha.
i think Emily has hit the nail on the head there, the source of confusion on the english side of things is that different regions have different names for things. especially bread.
the english muffin/teacake mentioned would be a currant teacake in Yorkshire. a teacake doesn't have fruit in and would be used to make a sandwich. i believe elasewhere in england it would be a bread roll.
I've had many an agument with southerners regarding the names of various forms of bread.
one thing is for sure though. Maryland cookies are the best! |

American from Maryland originally. Have lived in mainland Europe and visited the UK.
Maryland Cookies are not available in the US, although it is said that the recipe originated in the US.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maryland_Cookies
The animated talking cookie ads are graphically similar, but not identical, to ads for "Chips Ahoy" ads in the US. The Maryland Cookie's face is on the flat side, while the Chips Ahoy cookie's face is on the edge. The Chips Ahoy cookie(s) usually get eaten at the end of the commercial.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yz4u8XXUgxA
"English Muffins" in the US at present generally refer to "Thomas' English Muffins" or third party products which are very similar.
http://thomas.gwbakeries.com/catsAndSubcats.cfm#12
Based on pictures on line, crumpets appear to be very similar, but the hole pattern appears different. The holes in crumpets appear to be round and much more regular than the holes, or "nooks and crannies" in an English Muffin." |

I'm from Kensington MD (a suburb of Washington DC).
In 2006, my wife and I vacationed in London. As part of our trip, we visited the Kensington (London) Palace. The cashier at the gift shop asked where we were from, and I replied, "Ironically, we're from Kensington, but it's the Kensington in Maryland, USA"). He replied, "Oh. like the Maryland cookies?" and I retorted, "What's a Maryland cookie?"
Before leaving, I bought some Maryland cookies at a small neighborhood store on Craven Road, and
upon my return home, I brought them into work to share with my co-workers. They were chocolate chip, so I assumed that "Maryland cookie" was simply British for "chocolate chip cookie" and passed this misinformation on to my co-workers.
So there are also hazelnut Maryland cookies! Any other flavors (or as they spell it in England, flavours)?
Re the origin of Maryland (the state) - while ir was founded by English Catholics in 1634, it was named for Queen Henrietta Maria, not the Virgin Mary. |
