Location: big island | well...not quite, but they are now sending out scouts in the form of arnott tim tams. ventured to our local long's drug store chain (recently acquired by cvs) and found a shelf full of tim tams in three flavors. i began salivating but could only afford one package so i grabbed the dark chocolate variety. my wife, two daughters and i had 'em all consumed within the first mile towards home.
have they arrived on the u.s. mainland besides in specialty stores yet? |

| Seems they've been available here in most grocery stores for at least 5 years but I've never heard of them so maybe I don't get around enough or I have a tragic character flaw or whatever..lol Anyway, my wife likes stuff like that so we'll look for them next time out. |

Location: New South Wales, Australia | One is never enough Randy...I didn't realise they were being exported. The original is still my favourite. Always remember to wash your hands after eating one if you're planning on playing some music. I know coated strings are popular but chocolate coated strings (ironically) don't sound as sweet. |

Location: Sydney | Yup ... the old Tim Tam is an Aussie institution, though I would venture a damn sight better than the Iced Vovo!

Tiki from Sydney. Welcome back. Another Aussie slips back into the OFC under the radar. 2nd one this week. (Do I detect a Kiwi connection from your screen name?) |

No mate, I wouldn't have a bar of any Kiwi connection other than the fact that I like to carve them. ;)
Best, TR. |
