When is chocolate..chocolate? (132)
chocolate is chocolate when you pay $50 for an ounce

I think chilli flavoured chocky must have suddenly become unfashionable, I've been buying it reduced to 1 dollar, normally it would be about 4 or 5.
Personally, I like to make some cocoa up, get a packet of tim-tams and have a good session. I nibble each end off, then suck the cocoa through it. There's a knack to it, if you dont get it right, the biscuit goes soggy and the chocolate melts and the whole show collapses into your cocoa and becomes sludge.
You get it just right, by feeling the weight increase and the chocolate warm up, then kind of flick it up and snap at it like a dog. If the cocoa is too hot it burns fark out of your tongue and you splutter the whole thing across the room with tears streaming down your face, so thats something to be careful of.

I bought my girlfriends back in my hometown Tim Tams as souvenirs when I got back from Melbourne. I bought the limited edition ones. There were 'Coconut & Lychee', 'Black Forest', just to name a few.
I'll try to bring you some, the regular ones that we have here

Yeah, Japanese tourists have been known to buy the whole lot on the shelf, to take back home. I had some mango flavoured ones the other week, pfft.
Dark is fine, double dipped is too but you get less biscuits in a pack, I like the caramel but nobody else seems to, never bothered with strawberry, white's alrightish, ... but the original is what I always go back to.

However, the downsides of chocolate include- forced child labour, environmental degradation, corruption in third world countries, and in Australia imported chocolate is permitted to contain something ridiculous like 15% insects...

Salted caramel was ok. Bought my son the double dipped chocolate and my daughter 'White Chocolate' one. There was also a minty one but you're right, original is still the best

I can buy locally made Daintree Chocolate, for a very high price. And I dont know about fair trade, last thing I want is unvaccinated stoned idiots, who never wash their hands or their disgusting filthy insect-ridden greasy dreadlocks, preparing my food. Call me old fashioned.
Maybe me and Mimi should be getting commissions for talking up tim tams...

That is probably what you are getting already
There are proper standards under Fairtrade rules

Tim Tans? that's, a biscuit 
------ This thread is Archived ------
Yes. The shiny brown stuff on the outside is called chocolate. The biscuit is dark brown due to the addition of chocolate, and the lighter brown soft stuff in the middle tastes a lot like chocolate.
However, the opaque white tray they come packaged on cannot be digested because its made of plastic, as is the outer crinkly colourful protective layer. These should not be eaten or fed to livestock, but be thoughtfully disposed of after the biscuits are consumed.

Dark chocolate is said to be good for heart, brain and depression I have been told so I tend to eat it every day just a little to be good
