Now i'm feeling so ripped off!!!

Normal packs have eleven which is inconveniently prime and thus difficult to share. The double coated ones [drool] have nine, because they are extra thick. Are the pink ones extra thick too?

Put them in a "container"? That thing is usually called a "stomach" you know.

No, there's no double coating or anything on the pink wish ones. They've just made the partitions between the slots where the biscuits go a bit wider.

I think they're trying to make up for the 10 cent donation. Either way, I feel ripped off, but I'll still buy them because they taste great, and it's for a good cause.

Do I look like the kind of girl who'd eat a whole packet of tim tams in one sitting?

lol

Oh so you're a tart not a pie?

Depends on how "saucy" I'm feeling. I go both ways.

Pleased to hear the pink theme is global. When I worked at Asda (who are a sponsor) I bought all sorts of pink products to support Breast Cancer, including a lovely rose wine... I felt all warm inside after drinking it, like everyone was my best friend

I just bought the branded pink toilet paper this year - the difference between working 60 hours a week and working none!

Cheap buggers. I'm sure they make more than 10 cents per pack, AND they'd get a tax deduction for the donation, AND they'd get extra sales from the publicity.

Some biscuits come in resealable (or at least closable) boxes. Tim Tams do not. There is a reason for this.

Aliantha · 12-06-2007, 11:25 PM

hehe...that's true. I have been known (and it's right here in this thread) to eat a whole pack in a sitting.

They really are the rolls royce of biscuits.

That is a nice looking lemon tart, that is.

Who's got nipples that at least sometimes look like the blossom end of the lemon -- the bit with the protuberance?

Like Hershey's Chocolate Kisses are good too.

Very... tart-ly.

Sundae · 12-07-2007, 04:49 AM

I bet Marge Simpson has!

Mine are pink rather than yellow, but now you mention it I can see the resemblance...

ZenGum · 12-07-2007, 10:27 AM

Due to the ring of tiny bumps around the main nipple, Dali sometimes referred to a woman's nipple as a "telephone".

I can't believe I just ate...

I was reading in the kitchen last night, and wanted a little something sweet before bedtime. I reached into the refrigerator, and found the quart carton (tall, thin, yellow) of eggnog. As I lifted it, I could tell it was nearly empty from how light it was. So I opened the cap, and chugged the last inch left in the carton.

Imagine my surprise when my efforts to save a clean glass were rewarded with a quarter cup of egg substitute. Raw and cold. Ew. It was about as gross as it sounds, nothing like Rocky at all. Urk.

LOL, w/sympathy. At least it was high-protein. Egg-whites really need egg yolks, usually, to be at their best.
