Did you know that average price of timtam is more expensive in Australia than some countries? (After currency exchange) Of course we get the occasional special discounts at the local supermarket that's when people stock up on these diabetic inducing food.

Tim Tams are great.

Sitting on the toilet while eating a Mars bar is a strange experience.

IMHO, the best way to eat a tim tam is with coffee or tea, you bite diagonally opposing corners off, then attempt to suck the tea/coffee through the tim tam, of course the liquid wont go through, but it will saturate the biscuit and melt the chocolate.

Or a pollywaffle.....................

Anyone ever throw a pollywaffle into a crowded public swimming pool? They used to float real well. Sadly Nestle discontinued the pollywaffle a while ago now. Bastards.

The best bit was that, after throwing the pollywaffle in the pool, you didn't have to let it go to waste. After the desired effect, just jump in after it and eat it in front of everyone!

Indeed. The person who first took this thread down this horrible path should be ashamed!

I never thought there would be a Dutch site that explains how to do this, even in English:

I practically lived on TimTams during my final year EE thesis project in the early 90's.
The thesis electronics lab had 4 containers stocked with timtams, everyone contributed to the timtam fund.

Kept the sugar levels up during those late night lab sessions.

Electronics and Network Engineer. Working in both worlds.
