Fictional Food: District 12 Drop Biscuits and Katniss approved Puffy Buttermilk Biscuits

Well, this morning I made buttermilk biscuits(which is posted below), but I saw this post from fictionalfood.net about the District 12 drop biscuits. When I made them I was not brave enough to use whole wheat flour again, well, actually, my family begged me not to use it, since they actually wanted to EAT the food rather then pretend to be Katniss Everdeen (which of course my motive to make them...)
    Here is the post from fictionalfood.net. These biscuits look a lot more realistic than mine! They also took the time to actually make this a realistic recipe and even bought special grains. Really cool!

Katniss Approved Buttermilk Biscuits from The Hunger Games chapter 6
"Using a mouthpiece that magically appears when Katniss opens the menu in her Capitol living quarters, Katniss orders this dish along with a side of goose liver. But when the puffy bread can't quench Katniss's hunger, we see that it's a metaphor for the Capitol itself: full of hot air." -The Unofficial Hunger Games Cook Book by Emily Ansara Baines
These turned out well. But I think I made them a little too big...they increased a lot in size, and burnt a little on the top. But other than that they were good.
