What to eat with my tea? What do they do in the UK? Healthy cookies?
I am begining to realize that my workouts are consistant and challenging, but my diet is often lacking. I was doing pretty good lately sticking to mostly clean eating (cooking at home) and knocking out carbs and fat. Then a friend got back from a trip from Ireland. He and his wife gave me a few gifts one that was sort of a joke (the tea bags that were in their hotel room).
I have had Irish Breakfast tea before but only in loose form and got out of drinking it because of the hassel. These being bags made the process a bit quicker and add a touch of milk and wa la a nice heavenly brew on a cold winter’s night. I went and order some and found the best one to my taste Barry’s in this cool box: 
I did not know if I needed 200 bags but what the heck it makes my apartment look like a bed and breakfast place. The problem is what to eat with this? Soda bread, cookies, tea biscuits (cookies basically but less sweet) all carb heavy. I suppose fruit spread on my double fiber bread is a option but I thought maybe query here for someone may know of a healthy snacky cake/cookie. Apprecaite any help.

Crumpets are quite nice. They are low in fat (about 1%) and you could have some low fat spread and a bit of peanut butter on them, which I know is quite fatty but full of protein. Crumpets are a bit carby though.
I normally drink green tea which is an acquired taste but is good as a detox but also for fat burning too.
I’m sure you could enjoy a protein bar with your tea or even a flapjack. Try Lancashire Tea or Yorkshire Tea which is really nice. You probably can’t buy it in the States though.
Enjoy your cuppa!
