Many biscuits have saturated or trans fat which causes high cholesterol. If the fat in the biscuit is unsaturated fat, that is better.
Unsaturated fats are better for you than saturated fats.

Unsaturated fat lowers LDL cholesterol, because it contains HDL cholesterol, which takes the LDL cholesterol to the liver and they are broken down there.
Excess saturated fat intake has been linked to circulatory diseases, and cancer. Unsaturated fat helps balance blood cholesterol levels, which is a good thing. There is now evidence that unsaturated fat is also good for mental health.

A saturated fat has more hydrogen atoms attached to the main fat molecule.Saturated fats tend to be solid at room temperature (example--butter)Unsaturated fats tend to be liquid at room temperature (example--olive oil)
Wax is a saturated fat.
Knowing whether a fat is saturated or unsaturated is important because it impacts the fat's effect on health. Saturated fats are linked to heart disease and high cholesterol levels, while unsaturated fats are considered healthier and can actually help reduce the risk of heart disease when consumed in moderation.
