mrs optic makes the bickies in this household. If I had to go and buy some then Hobnobs with choccie. Mind you, this thread made me think…

Aldi Ginger nuts for me , because they have more ginger in them imho . + you get about 3 or 4 packets for the cost of Mcv nuts.
So Aldi are the muts nuts for me . Far more dunking for your money.

Isn't one of the USPs of biscuits the simple feature of their crunchiness? Why soggify them?????
Dunking is a complete abomination and patently against the natural order of things.

AN UNBELIEVER!!!

Quick! Form an angry mob! Bring your torches and pitchforks…

As long as they are dark chocco ginger nuts, then your talking !
Mind you sadly ,in am off limits to an endless supply of biccies of any kind, being type 2 Diabetic,.
Off subject mind, but the occasional cream eclair is allowed, but you can't dunk them, or you shouldn't!

Hobnobs... Bleurgh. Likewise ginger nuts.

Best dunkers - speculoos

I bake my own, but failing that, the Lotus ones, or the own brand ones from Aldi are reasonably decent.

Hobnobs - dry or (black coffee) dunked, simply...

I can't hear this song without being transported back to Ewood in 94/95 when Shearer fired us to being Premiership Champions. Played every time he scored and/or we won. Sorry!

Yes, Hobnobs #1 dark chocolate #2 plain #3 milk chocolate

@Dave7 surprised a man of your life experience had never eaten a Hobnob before. Aldi ginger nuts are truly excellent, very gingery.

Hob nobs. More dunkable.

Ginger biccies wimp out after a few dunks.

God I miss choccie Hob Nobs. Can't get them here. I need a food parcel. Soreen Malt Loaf and choccie Hob Nobs.

Hobnobs aren’t biscuits. They’re just stupid things in the shape of biscuits.

Honestly

What a load of ********

it is CLEAR that the best for black coffee (the only kind - people who drink it with milk should be rounded up and shot) is a ginger nut

but for proper dunking you need decent (i.e. strong) tea and a hobnob
a digestive (no chocolate) can be used in emergencies

The level of peril if part of the journey and perfecting the correct time but maintaining the exact level of texture in the biscuit is an art any Real Man needs to perfect
(I have no idea about women - as my wife can confirm)


Right - that's that sorted - you can close teh thread now

P.s. dunking a Mars bar is to perverts
Knew someone who did that - he came to a bad end - vicar in a public school

The finest scientific minds of the country previously identified the Custard Cream as the best dunker.

They're not my favourite, but who are we to disregard science?

I think the opposite... they're undergingered compared to McV's.

Don't tell my boss i said this but even Lidl's ginger biscuits are better than Aldi's.
