Half Dozen vs. Dozen: Price Per Biscuit
| Order | Price | Per biscuit | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Half Dozen (6) | $7.99 | $1.33 | 970 (about 160 each) |
| One Dozen (12) | $10.49 | $0.87 | 1,940 |
The dozen costs only a little more than the half dozen, so it is clearly the better buy per biscuit. Leftovers reheat well in an oven for a few minutes.
