can someone explain the tim tam???
where's willy wonka when you need him??

self-explanatory

Tim Tams (TM)
A Tim Tam (TM) is an Australian chocolate filled and covered biscuit produced by Arnott's. Although delicious by itself, a nice way of consuming it is via the "Tim Tam(TM) Slam": you need to bite both ends off the biscuit, then use it to suck coffee out of your cappucino or latté. Make sure you have a spoon handy, because the biscuit is liable to quickly break up. Suck as much coffee through it as you can and, when you feel it breaking up, quickly ram the melting biscuit into your mouth with the spoon. It is particularly bad form to allow the biscuit to disintegrate and fall into your coffee, where it then floats in chunks.
This procedure is particular fun with the new "Dark Chocolate Tim Tams" (TM).
For those of you who live in North America and have weird names for things, the English term "biscuit" includes a variety of items such as cookies. The Tim Tam (TM) biscuit would, in North American terms, be somewhat of a cross between a cookie, biscuit and chocolate bar. In fact, larger Tim-Tams(TM) have recently begun to be marketed as stand-alone chocolate bars in Australia.

From time to time, I get emails from North Americans, asking where they may purchase these antipodean delights. For those of you from Texas, or for that matter anywhere within cooee's roar of San Antonio, you might wish to try The About Australia shop. Victoria Pearce assures me in an email (17/3/2003) that

"We even sell Tim Tams by the box...you can never have too many!!! "

If I send you money will you send me so I can have some and send them to Byron also I will send you money for shipping to

I think you'll find they're called Penguins.

no, the Penguin looks like a poor imitation.

You cannot beat a real Tim Tam, esp. the dark chocoloate ones.

<--- Tim Tams look and taste a lot better than this.

JPW said:

Which came first though?

I ate tim tams for the first time here in Thailand actually. Very similar to Penguins, but it wasn't a dark chocolate one. I could imagine that'd be pretty damn tasty.
