Come on, own up, who dunks their biscuits in their tea or coffee??

I'm a dunker but it can be problematic with wheat and gluten free biscuits, I often 'loose' the biscuit

I am forced to go and change my clothes now before the school run, as I just dropped half a biscuit on myself :rolleyes::wah:

Is there any other way to eat cookies or donuts? I guess thats why every shirt I own has coffee stains on the front.

Only way to eat an Oreo cookie is to dunk it. :wah:

I just wear dark colored shirts with busy designs, so the stains don't stand out. Problem solved.

Cow biscuits, rich tea, custard creams....no question, dunked :-6

Dunk, definitely! Not choc biscuits though! :wah: But - ginger nuts, marie, rich tea, digestives (non choc), but you do have to be careful with all of them, except possibly the ginger nuts, they're a bit tougher and don't collapse so easily! :sneaky:

My mum always said it was bad manners to dunk biscuits in your tea or coffee ! :yh_rotfl

my cookies must be dunked in milk.:-6

Yes, Gill, but when you live right on the edge, like we do, dunking is just another of life's challenges :sneaky:

Dunk??? My God! you mean to say you dunk your firm crunchy cookies and biscuits so they become warm, wet, soft goo????

Me too! Dunked definately...:wah:

You are all, if I may be allowed to say so, backward uncouth creatures of the night. Biscuits shall no longer be provided at any future ForumGarden meet. Good lord, how I ever fell among such company I'll never know.

:wah: I dare you to try it one day, no doubt you're probably doing it as I type, pretending to be all high and mighty and better than us! You probably even drink your tea out the saucer, like that Wurzel Gummidge used to do :p:wah:

I present all the admitted cookie/biscuit dunkers on this thread a special Dunkers mug.

Never.

Terribly common practice. :rolleyes:

Drinking tea from the saucer is an entirely different matter with a long and respected history. What else do you think saucers are for.

Oh dear, everyone knows that saucers are for placing the biscuits on prior to dunking, you break the biscuit in half over the saucer too, to catch the crumbs. Never, and I mean NEVER does one place a whole biscuit in the mouth at once! That really is uncouth :yh_rotfl

I'm very common and dunk all the time, but henceforth, in a nod to Spot I'll stick my little finger out as I'm doing it!!

I have very few vices and it's unkind of you to even remember such moments. What's more, I shall even forebear to retaliate. Given the extent of my ammunition you may think yourself fortunate.

Come on ladies. You all do it at you coffee mornings. It doesnt touch the sides and you can still hold a conversation

Mr. Spot obviously has some hidden qualities ! :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

I knew a girl who could put a mars bar in lengthways in mid sentence. Never paused for breath. Amazing what you females can do with your mouths

You're not normal then...

I had a friend that used to dunk buttered toast in her tea, that's disgusting, especially seeing the globules of fat floating in the tea :yh_sick:yh_sick

I love those 'cow' biscuits ! The malted milk biscuit with an embossed cow on them!:)

Oh hell ... that's just wrong on so many levels!

I was just about to make a cup of tea and some toast ... don't think I'll bother now

Thank you, Gill. But, of course, this thread shows that cow biscuits are only for the discerning taste bud

Cow biscuits are ok. But dead fly biscuits are ace!!!

Yes theia, you can tell the better class of dunker, can't you? :yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl I could eat a whole pack in one sitting, only I wouldn't want to appear greedy, so I manage to refrain !
