The only way to eat a tunnocks teacake

Is biscuit first, take a slow lick out of the inside and then smash the rest all at once.

My husband says it's indecent.

This is the only way, surely?

Chocolate topping first, then mallow, then biscuit.

This is THE only way to eat it. Anything else is totally wrong

Ihopeithinkiknow · 16/09/2024 18:45

I can't waste time nibbling it in sections because I need my hands to be unwrapping the next one while I'm munching the first one lol

AskZoltar · 16/09/2024 18:45

Depends on my mood. Sometimes I like to smash it all in one go.

RandomMess · 16/09/2024 18:46

Dark ones only 💕

Tisfortired · 16/09/2024 18:46

Just shove it all in

Pick the chocolate hat off with my teeth. Lick the marshmallow. Eat the biscuit.

I don’t do this with anyone around though. Not even DH as it’s a bit grim 😂

I do this too😆

Eat biscuit. Marks for no crumbs in mallow.
Lick mallow out.
Eat choc in one.
Repeat.

BiggerBoat1 · 16/09/2024 18:49

Bite hole in top. Lick mallow out like lizard. Finish with biscuit.

TerrifiedandWorried · 16/09/2024 18:51

Put in bin. Unwrap tunnock's caramel. Eat.

Yabu. The M&S ones are FAR superior.

Nonsense. Nothing is better than a Tunnocks.

Andoutcomethewolves · 16/09/2024 18:58

I have to say I'm shocked/borderline scandalised at all the biscuit-last people! Surely the best needs to be saved for last??

I eat them like you OP! And pretty similar for anything wafer or biscuit based - the thickest chocolate/best bit needs to be saved for last. Eg for a Twix I would nibble the chocolate from the sides, eat the biscuit, then roll up the chocolate and caramel and shove it all in in one go, a Bounty you eat all the chocolate on the sides, then bottom, then coconut, then the thick chocolate on the top, for a Kitkat the sides, then each layer of wafer individually then the thickest top bit of chocolate. And so on.

My husband tends to look on with an expression of disgust as I do this but I think he's secretly impressed/jealous really, he just doesn't have the willpower and shoves things in whole!

Absolute stale cardboard waste of a biscuit. The caramel log on the other hand...

I'm afraid you're very, very wrong 😔

CocoapuffPuff · 16/09/2024 19:03

Unwrap, give to dog, job done.
They're minging.

swapcicles · 16/09/2024 19:03

Put teacake on table
Smash with fist
Unwrap and eat 😁
I discovered this method when I couldn't fit one in my mouth as it wouldn't open properly for a week after a tooth extraction 😂

teatoast8 · 16/09/2024 19:04

That's how I eat them. It's the only way

Andoutcomethewolves · 16/09/2024 19:05

I think this thread has rendered me more incensed than anything else that's happened today, and that includes a really shitty job interview! Thanks for taking my mind off that anyway 😅

Storytimetime · 16/09/2024 19:05

NO! Four equalish bites where you get a bit of everything.

I think about how many Tunnocks I could eat in one sitting at least four times a week 😆.
