    If you dunk six biscuits in your tea surely the bottom of your cup is just a vom-fest of soggy biscuit residue? :(

    Biscuits are full of sugar, salt, E-numbers, saturated fat and every other unhealthy thing under the sun. They are worse than cigarettes, alcohol, heroin and asbestos combined. Seriously folks, ditch the biscuits.

    Made some sense up to the bold bit but then you went off your head. Take a nice break relax with a cup of tea and a nice biscuit.

    My favourite are Oreo's or Maryland chocolate chips.

    The trick is to stick it in and leave it in for a little while. When you take it out you can lick it or softly nuzzle at it but not too hard. Then swallow. That's how I've always done it anyway. So addictive too.

    Hate when the cup is too small to get the entire width of the biscuit into it. Then you have to nibble pieces off it like an animal until it fits.

    You know winning the biscuit isn't really winning, right?

    Thus, this is why I do not compete no more.

    To go along with one's cup of tea all that is required is:

    Two Rich Tea's with nice lump of Nutella spread between them Perfection:D

    Rich Tea biscuits are my favourite!

    Granted I don't really like biscuits but I love love love to drink tea and as a treat (when deserved) I have a nice sit down at 9pm, watch the news have tea and 3 Rich Teas to dunk!
    Delightful:D

    I challenge anyone to make a pot of tea, crack open a box of Cadbury's chocolate fingers and not eat them all in one sitting!

    Edit: remember Fox's Classics? They were unreal.

    Yeah I'm really not thinking about you eating biscuits.

    while we're on the topic of rich tea biscuits

    rich tea biscuits with butter > rich tea biscuits without butter

    discuss


    *Gag reflex activated* bluegh!


    I remember as child sitting in my granny's in Artane force-feeding myself buttered rich out of politeness. Big thick layer of it. Butter should go on savoury food exclusively.



    (Yes yes, I know cakes are made with butter, right? Shut it!:mad:)

    Just that one time.

    I've remained fairly round since.

    I blame the biscuits..

    custard creams are the best with tea ,galaxy bar with coffee ah feck ye now need to go shopping for some goodies lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭Gulliver


    Why has nobody mentioned thick tea???

    All the nostalgia of a Liga biscuit with none of the disapproving looks from the mother of the child you just stole it from.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭MadYaker


    Rich Tea biscuits and tea are both disgusting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭Gulliver


    I once saw an old lady dunk two rich tea stuck together with a thick layer of butter.

    We're talking pro-level dunkage here, playa!

    Do it's quite an underrated treat in my opinion. The lidl and aldi ones are just as good too. At 37 calories a pop you can afford to go a bit mad with them :)

    The most boring, unimaginative and dullest biscuit of the biscuit world.
    ...until it's dipped in tea wherupon it becomes a taste sensation!

    I hate having to do that. The quick fix here is to break the biscuit in half before dipping. The proper fix however is to bring a pack of rich tea when you go mug shopping, doesn't look strange at all to do some practice dips. I've had knowing nods from other mug shoppers in my time whilst doing this.

    If someone gives you a mug as a present you need to ask for the receipt.

    As for rich tea with butter!! :mad:
