Where is it.... missing biscuit piece...

[WiddlinDiddlin]

I have discovered, to my horror, that the biscuit I have just dipped into my tea, has a piece missing.

I do not know if it was entire pre-dunkage.

Is it in my tea?

Relevant details - Morrisons brand Malted Milk, 'C is for Coffee and also for Cock' mug (which yes, incorrectly contains tea not coffee). The Tea is PG Tips, the milk is full fat.

I am worried if I drink the last dregs (it is currently two thirds full and optimum temp. for drinking) I will locate the missing biscuit. This would be traumatic because, well thats always traumatic.

Do I drink on, or do I discard a possibly perfectly good brew?

Be afraid... Be very afraid.

Or stir it with a spoon?

Call the cops

Drink on but prepare yourself for the worse!

The missing piece is down your cleavage . Well that’s where I found a chunk of biscuit when I got undressed .
I think you are overthinking the situation .

Teaspoon fishing session?

Can you strain the tea into a more appropriate mug?

Drink it through your teeth. I have a handy gap between my front teeth, it’s like having an inbuilt colander.
But actually @Trumpton is right. It’s in your cleavage smelling slightly cheesy

Fish it out carefully with a spoon. Or pour the whole cup through a sieve (into a clean cup.

Frankly it’s what you deserve for putting tea in a “C is for Coffee” mug, and then dunking something other than a Rich Tea you philistine.

I agree with @Sashkin, you are a philistine. Malted milks are not for consumption with tea FFS, they are appropriate for coffee only. You have brought this on yourself.

Drink the tea, all of it, and especially the broken bit of biscuit in penance for your foolishness, and let that be a lesson to you.

We never found the piece of Nantwich blue cheese my mum brought round when I did a buffet, your biscuit bit is probably with that - sometimes things just go the way of Nantwich blue, you will never see it again.

Sorry I went to bed, needing to deal with the trauma in a darkened room..

The end of the saga is, I got distracted and slurped the end of the brew with gay abandon... remembering just at the last second.....

It wasn't there!

Subsequent investigations have revealed a corner of malted milk still in the packet. My worries were for naught!

I think I have learned my lesson though - there was no way i could seive it or spoon it out, the Malted Milk disintegrates into dust once submerged, unlike more worthy biscuits such as the Rich Tea.

I shall not stray from the path of Proper Biscuit Dunkage again.

I thought this was Mumsnet, so why have you not had a LTBiscuit yet ?

Yuck I hate the sludge if your biscuit ends up in cup - mind you I’m low carbing so frankly, right now, I’d take ‘biscuit sludge’ & be grateful of it 🤣

Im glad younlocsted it in the packet, but I’m sorry you went through the trauma all for nothing.

Time to try again?!

YABU for putting full fat milk in tea! yuk ha ha ha

I once lost the sausage from a hot dog at a child’s party, I had bent down to help DD with something and when I sat up it had gone, I found it in my cleavage!
I’d much rather find the last corner of a biscuit in the bottom of my brew!

Singleandproud I once lost a prawn down there. (Mine not yours obviously)

Just making a cuppa now...

What other biscuits are acceptable for dunking in tea, asides from Rich Tea. Gingernut?

Tea is still in the C is for Coffee mug btw.. I am a rebel.

Singleandproud the important question is, how long was it before you located the hotdog sausage.

I accept that losing food items in the cleavage is a risk some of us cannot avoid (me included)... instant retrieval is ok, its when you locate something you know has been there HOURS.. not so good.

In my case, mostly its just popcorn in the bra, falls out at bedtime.

Gingernuts.

Or, you could go for the chocolate digestive sandwich - two biccies held chocolate sides together and munched between slurps of coffee (note the coffee and not tea irrespective of the receptacle used!).

YANBU LTB!

Wait ... biscuits? LT ... Biscuit?

For dunking, I recommend custard creams.

Or those Biscoff ones. Delicious dunked in coffee, don't know about tea. They are thin though so need very brief dunking , or (and I favour this method myself) dunk two or three together.

Hobnobs are the best. The survive very well in the old dunkage test. plus if its a choccy hobnob it goes all melty too. mmmm

@BoreOfWhabylon have you seen the new chocolate covered biscoff.
