Hee hee hee!!

I had three.... :shocked2:

Not bad. As I thought though - an Aussie Penguin.

Is there an Aussie equivalent to Mars bars too? Or my personal favourite....Cadbury's Flake?

They really look good. What do they taste like? Is there a U.S. equivalent?
I have huge sweet teeth.
I have had Cadbury Flakes before. Got to sample them at Fountain's Abbey once. Lovely, if I do say so myself.

You should be able to get them at Costco...good luck

We have Mars bars and Flakes.

Yes Tim Tams are basically like Penguins, Penguins were around for longer actually.

Irishsquid, you can order them online if you want them in the US. But I think they sell them there under another name in some stores... not sure what it is. The brand is 'Arnotts' though, if that helps.

As far as US equivalent, I thought they were a lot like Kit Kats.

I got brainwashed enough on this board that had I HAD to try these when I was in Oz. I had a surprisingly hard time finding them. One store I went in even had a huge Tim Tam ad hanging up but they didn't have any. What's up with that? I had to buy the darn things in the airport.

Can't let the wife try 'em. I'd be be on the sofa forever.

I can live with that! I can eat a couple of the big bars by myself.
