FindernRam Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 My throwaway comment in another thread about having a Digestive Biscuit Sandwich caused some mild amusement (more than the actual topic) So here's another: I have just had a catastrophe. Attempting a 3/4 dunk of a Hobnob into my morning coffee a structural failure occurred in the dry bit a and huge lump of biscuit splashed coffee over my T shirt. Better half said she had no sympathy! I recovered most of it and although soggier than normal was quite palatable. The coffee was bitty but drinkable. Next time I might leave it in there and stir it up. Could patent it as "Hobcoff" Anyway to the question: Do you dunk! What's your technique to avoid sogginess? What is you favourite item to dunk (keep it clean vicar!)?

Dunking inferior biscuits will incur the above mentioned catastrophe. As a service to all dunkers on this site I will pass on the following advice free of charge. Instead of purchasing overpriced biscuits made in Leicestershire, one can obtain superior snacking solutions made just over the Derbyshire border in the neighbouring county of Staffordshire, (you can see the factory from Doveridge). The packs you need to look for are called Oaties or Oaty Crumbles usually in supermarket branding, Asda, Lidl, Aldi, Sainsburys, Tesco etc. No need to thank me.

Incidentally both same price this week at ASDA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kevin Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 The way to stop structural failure is to lift them out of the tea/coffee edge ways up ,much stronger . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the Queen Mother liked to dunk so totally acceptable upper class behaviour. Churchill reportedly dipped his cigar in Gin/Whisky/Brandy.
