"She wouldn’t bite a biscuit" = ngay cả bánh quy cũng không dám cắn -> nghĩa là bẽn lẽn, e dè.

Ví dụ
Nearby neighbors came outside and said Bailey was very friendly and would not “bite a biscuit.” At that point, Smith had not told the neighbors that he was the one who shot the dog. The dog’s owner, Melissa Holleman, arrived home shortly afterward.

No worry. “He wouldn’t bite a biscuit unless there was gravy on it,” McClure said. These two show up most every day at Carriage Houses. Unlike his car-guy neighbors, McClure’s a woodworker, his garage filled with woodworking machines and tools. He makes a lot of bowls and duck calls. “I guess that makes me different out here,” said McClure, who worked as a marketing consultant for 30 years. Certainly different from Darrin Watson, who has four cars and a Ducati motorcycle in his garage.
