And as for TimTams (or ChitChats) ... the only way to have them is with a glass of cold milk or hot chocolate (some people I know use a hot cup of tea or coffee)
Bite two corners off, diagonally opposite from each other, then use like a straw to suck the drink through (one bitten corner in drink, other bitten corner in your mouth)... then pop the whole biscuit/cookie in your mouth and let it melt onto your tongue... mmm, sensuously divine...
As shallow as it sounds, eating a TimTam or ChitChat like this has to be on your list of things to do before you die.
LOL - I had a coffee night here in the states with the wives of the guys my husband works with. I ordered some TimTams from an Aussie product company here in the states as I thought it would be a nice treat for them to taste some yummies from Aust. Guess what (and I know for any TimTam addict this will be hard to believe) they were not a big hit????? I just though as Rove would say (Aussie TV host) What The???

Now I wish Id kept them all to myself.
