I've never really gotten in to tim tams. We always send them to our family in Ireland, that and tinned beetroot.

They're good melted over ice cream though ;)

Obviously penguins are trying to be tim tams.

In Australia we have this stuff in our chocolate that stops it from melting so quickly, but you don't in the UK so they probably taste different anyway. Like your chocolate tastes more real but makes me feel sick quicker.

Another Australian invention is Milo, it's like Nesquik or Ovaltine but better. So basically chocolate/barley powder that you add to milk to make chocolate milk or hot chocolate.

I think since in Australia we are raised on it, we're probably just used to it. I can imagine what it would taste like to someone who has just lathered it straight on to bread though haha

the reason tim tams arent sold in many other countries is because there are ingredients in them which arent allowed to be in food in other countries. they have heaps of carcinogens in them, but they do taste sooo good. the double choc ones are the best but i always get the normal ones cos they have 11 in the pack instead of 9 lol
