I’ll get in trouble for opening this way but it must be said:

Tim Tams are crap as a snack. Or candy, cookies, biscuits, wafers… whatever you call ‘em. Straight out of the box, pop ‘em in your mouth, crunch crunch crunch, they’re not much to write home about. Got nothing on Twix, about on par with the chemical-after-tastey Kit Kat. Maybe Aussies love ‘em so much cuz they’ve grown up on ‘em, maybe North Americans who mostly know Hershey’s think it’s something special, but I’m from a country where good chocolates abound, so I have no use for them as munchies.

BUT!

Nibble off two opposing corners, dip in hot coffee or cocoa, slurp some liquid up until it touches your lips and then blammo! you’ve got the best gooey chocolate mess in the world to suck up and thrill your mouth. A good cappuccino and some of thems classic darks or double coats… I can see why some call it the Tim Tam Orgasm.

I’ve stopped drinking coffee regularly several years ago. But I still have a cup every then and again just for the sake of slamming a Tim Tam or two. or ten. In fact, I’m gonna go do that right now.
