To cry when....

[Bumble1830]

My biscuit falls into my tea? I can never find the perfect dunking biscuit, Suggestions please

I suggest you stop dunking

Or try shortbread fingers as they're nice and thick.

Aldi ginger nuts. Dunk 1, 2,3 and eat it in a oner.

Bite both ends off a Mcvities gold bar and suck a tiny bit of tea up.

The tea melts the chocolate/biscuit inaide slightly and tastes amazing. Also no risk of it breaking in your tea.

The answer is two at a time for structural support, with emergency spoon back up.

WorraLiberty...Stop dunking? As in having a cup of tea with no dunking? Do people actually do this?

Sainsburys have some own brand (thick) biscuits that are ideal for dunking. Unfortunately there are only 8 in a packet. I buy them because they do not contain palm oil and because they are much nicer than the crappy ones that are passed off as biscuits these days.

ToadOfSadness Hmmmm, only 8 biscuits? I could buy 2 packs I suppose [laugh]

Never stop dunking.

Yorkshire tea have a biscuit brew out. Drink that and eat your biscuits dry!

Get some hobnobs.....The SAS of dunking!

You need nothing less than a hobnob.

A rich tea will only ever let you down. Avoid.

Happened to me last night, Fortunately it didn't disintegrate into mush but stayed fairly whole so I could still drink my tea. I suspect it was partially cracked before I picked it up, rather than leaving it too long in the tea.

If you insist on dunking then do so with a less than second time-span. Yabu for ruining a decent biscuit!

Mars bars far better for dunking.

OP you don't know real tears
I opened the last ice lolly on Sunday, opened the packet, the stick came out and lolly was basically smoosh on plastic wrapper.

Oh no WomaninGreen, That's nearly as heartbreaking as thinking there's a biscuit left in the pack....and there isn't

Worra are you on glue? no dunking??

Chocolate hob nobs.

I feel your pain, I lost a malted milk the other day in my tea and thought I could scoop it out with another biscuit.... Lost that too 😩

I was strong. I did not weep.

But it is a moment that has marked my soul.

Good Food magazine have done a dunking chart where they measure how long until a biscuit dissolves in tea. Pink wafer topped at 3 mins.
