[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 65758, member: 1991"] I reckon I could. Which ones did you get? Just the plain ordinary ones? They have a sort of butterscotch flavour with the chocolate cream, inside milk chocolate - or my favourite, the double coat dark choc with choc cream and choc biscuit. Then there are the chili choc ones, the mud slide ones, the vanilla/milk choc ones, the berry/dark choc ones - I think there are more all the time. The ordinary ones - 13 in a pack, from memory (a common trivia quiz question in Australia) but the double coat, they can only fit 11 per pack. Tim Tams first hit the Aussie market back in the late Sixties. The first ones were tasty, but the chocolate kept flaking off. My mother never bought any, one of my sisters brought home an early packet. I would see them in the shops but had no money to buy any. By the time I could afford them they were the same as they are now - wonderful! You're also supposed to be able to use them to drink hot chocolate through - you bite off the diagonally opposite corners and stick one bitten off end into the chocolate and :censored: through the other. The biscuit tends to fall apart along the way as the chocolate on the outside and the cream in the middle melts, but it's the latest teen craze in winter down here. I've never got the hang of it - I just keep them in the fridge in summer, they're really like a chocolate bar with biscuit inside. Glad you like them! Now you know why we've never really taken to Oreos... I mean, they're nice, but they don't come close to Tim Tams! Marg [/QUOTE]
