Talk:Rich tea

Supermarket "own brand" are sourced from major biscuit makers. Needs researching and adding.



Question the comment about Rich tea biscuits being good for dunking. They are terrible: they fall to pieces within seconds of being dunked, that is if they don’t fall to pieces in the coffee/tea cup leaving a sludgy mess at the bottom!

You're doing it incorrectly. You're supposed to dip them very briefly, less than a second, then eat. If you're leaving it in for seconds, or long enough to fall apart, that's way too long in the cup. --82.19.14.225 (talk) 16:32, 17 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

I agree that Rich Tea biscuits are hopeless for dunking. Dunk them briefly and they absorb nothing. Dunk them for longer and they go soggy. My opinion is that their fine texture makes them perhaps the worst of the classic British biscuits for dunking. The open texture of, for example, a ginger nut allows the tea or coffee to wick into the biscuit. 193.203.71.131 (talk) 11:29, 1 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Rich Tea is not a cookie. It is a biscuit. 77.102.212.40 (talk) 19:51, 2 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
