    Have to agree that Mint Slice is my weakness over a tim tam from the freezer remind me of summer days after school in Northern South Australia. US Customs accused me of being a commercial importer last time I took a box as carry on!

    The one I had were made in Australia, so I would suspect that only the name outside changed (Pepperidge Farm and Arnott's are both owned by Campbell's soup)

    The running family conducted a very scientific taste test of sorts.. The "arnotts" from world market are FAR superior to the blather that Pep farms is trying to foist on the american public as a "tim tam".. It's not. Sorry folks, gotta get the real deal arnotts.

    Ha Haaa

    I can it now.. Many real packages of tim tams being sent by Aussies to friends n family in the US because they can't find the REAL deal...

    *snort*

    Sounds very similar to Expat Aussies in the US dying for Vegemite when the US banned it
