# I've never had one, but apparently they just look like Penguins
Their taste is fabled ('specially with tea and clipped corners!)

*clips ticket*

# Is that the famous 'Tim Tam Slam' you're referring to?

# I've never had it :(
But that sounds about right.

Once it was a biscuit, and a cup of tea, but now it is... THE TIM-TAM SLAM

I must do this sometime, I fear that my very happiness depends upon it!

# I was once told you could do it with a crunchie.
Bollocks! You can suck jack shit through a crunchie.

# You bite the opposite corners off the Tim Tam
Dip it in your tea and suck the tea up through it. When soggy, slam the biscuit in your mouth.

An Australian taught it to me during presentation training.

# Ah-hah!
A more detailed/specific version of what I'd heard, I thank you Miss.

...now I just need to locate the biscuits themselves!

# copy/paste time
The Tim Tam Slam, also known as the Tim Tam Suck, Tim Tam Explosion, Tim Tam Orgasm, Tim Tam Straw, Shot-gunning a Tim Tam, or just plain Tim Tamming is the main form of Tea Sucking and involves biting off opposing corners of the Tim Tam and then using it as a 'straw' to suck up a hot beverage (usually tea, coffee, hot chocolate, or Milo) and then, just before the biscuit falls apart, it is placed in the mouth. The thicker chocolate coating on the Double Coat Tim Tam offers a more stable exoskeleton to help ensure the biscuit does not collapse prematurely. The Chewy Caramel variety also has an advantage for performing the Tim Tam Slam since the caramel centre helps to hold the biscuit together for a slightly longer time. The Arnott's company prefers the name Tim Tam Suck.

# as much as I like Tea, I prefer dunking biscuits in coffee for some reason.
And my fave biscuits for dunking are chocolate digestives, Hob Nobs, or even better - CHOCOLATE COATED HOB NOBS. Yum.
