As much as Tim Tam's are delicious, the amount of biscuits inthe package is diminishing. Now the plastic tray is getting bigger spacersand less biscuits. Down to 8 ina pack. No wonder ppl are going back to home baking ☹️ Show details
none of your complaints compare to this – Tims Tams contain cochineal - a type of food coloring that comes from South American insects and has been known to provoke severe allergic reactions. yuk
Rotten – Since the Yanks brought this iconic brand they changed every biscuit recipe. Tim Tams were once fantastic. Now there just oily pieces of cheapest lard they could scrape of the floor.

My favourite biscuit – I really enjoy a packet of Tim Tams. I prefer the original ones but sometimes I will buy the fancy ones. I noticed that the fancy ones have less in the packet, the packet looks the same size but it’s all an illusion because the tray gaps between the biscuits are larger. I have noticed that the chocolate coat has gotten thinner over the years. I… Read more
still like them though but I’m not willing to pay the price the big supermarket cartels are gouging customers when they are not on special. I have seen news articles where the same Tim Tams made in the same Australian factory are cheaper in the UK than they are in Australia.
All in all they are my favourite biscuit.
Not good enough Arnotts – I bought a packet of Tim Tams recenetly at Woolworths as a rare treat. It was a packet of 8- and 3 were missing! I contacted Arnotts and said I knew Supermrkets were price gouging, but didnt realise Arnotts were too. They insulted me by sending me a $5 voucher and an explanation thus "we have weight checkers in place at the end of the production… Read more
line- in this case the weight of this packet may have been missed." Really. Just my packet? Come on Arnotts. Not good enough.
Coating has gotten so THIN – The choc coat is at the point of transparent and they're down to 9 in a packet. Almost can't justify for even half price. There are plenty of other biscuit options. Can see myself checking out in the not too distant future *drops mic* Show details
I love them – When I say I love them I really do mean it. But the one thing I do have a problem with is the packaging. Can Arnott find away a to give you less biscuits for your buck. I am being to feel like I'm paying for plastic. And every time I rebuy the space between each biscuit seems to be getting bigger and bigger. I can't be the only one to feel this way. Only 9 per packet. Show details

Caramel Tim tams are magic – Absolutely love these things. Don’t have them often as they would make me fat but when I do have them I polish a packet off easy. Show details
Banoffee Tim Tams - Love it. Mmmmm bananas! – It's out there, it's not going to please many, but I love those yellow banana lollies I grew up with and this hits the spot. Maybe I'm weird. Maybe everyone else is weird but me. We're all different.
LOVE THEM!!! – I am an enjoyer of all Australian foods, but these ones are on the top of the list! My kids and I really love sitting back in a park on a Sunday morning with a pack of double coated Tim Tams. This iconic Australian bikky has always been one of my favourites since I was young and I'm always looking forward to opening another packet with my kids.

Change of Recipe ?? – Bought a pack of Tim Tams from Woolworths- there is definitely a change. Quality is not what we've known and have loved for years. Enquired on Google and sure enough , there has been a recipe change. So disappointed, Tim Tams were decadent and rich. I agree with another poster describing them as "cheap". They now taste like the ones I've had in Asia. What a shame Arnotts. Won't buy again. Show details
Arnotts rip off. Again! – Arnotts now using the same size exterior packaging but spreading the biscuits out with more space in between them. In other words same packet less biscuits. They deny anything like this of course but not all the public are mugs arnotts.

Cheap and nasty – They taste cheap and nasty, no longer that rich great taste of the original. Show details
Chocolate straw – Great to use as a straw! An Australian classic, kind of like a Kit Kat. It's available in Walmart in the US. Show details
Rip off – If you were an honest company you would change the size of the packet to half to reflect 8 skinny biscuits you scum of the earth
contemptible – Biscuits getting smaller and smaller, same packaging, more money. Arnotts been doing it for years. Monte Carlos and chocolate montes, now iced vovos. Treating customers like mugs.
Not good Arnotts – Why reduce the size to 8 biscuits when it was 11, day light robbery
Fewer Biscuits - Same Size Package – The dark chocolate biscuits previously had 11 biscuits per pack - now there are only 8 with virtually same size packaging. Concomitantly, the price has risen in Woolworths stores.
all plastic packing and no biscuits – bought the decadent triple choc and found only 8 biscuits in the packet. The were spread out by plastic spacers to make the pack look like it held more. What a rip off
Leave your mask on – Banoffee! Do yourself a favour and Leave your mask on so these don’t enter your mouth. Yuk!! I have no idea what arnotts were thinking. Never again back to the original for me. Show details

Tim Tam Banofee in one word... YUCK ! – There isn't much else to say. What were they thinking? If the banana biscuit wasn't sickly enough, they add a faux banana goo inside. Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! Show details
Dark Choc Banoffee: This is the first Tim Tam I have met that I didn't like – My husband bought these and we all tried one. I thought it was going to be coffee chocolate only to discover it tasted like some kind of chocolate-coated banana. I hate bananas. My husband and daughter didn't like them either and they do eat bananas. The only one who seemed to enjoy it was my teenage son, but he's a teenage boy, he eats anything. Disappointed and won't be buying Banoffee again. Show details
Interesting new flavours – Tim Tam has come out with a new Manuka Honey flavour. My wife enjoys it but I find the original to be far better than the new flavour. Keep up the great job Tim Tam, you are a true Aussie icon.
Disgusted! Piece of string found in Tim Tam – Gross, I was eating a Tim Tam and found a piece of string inside it. I tried to do the right thing and let them know and I was given lots of bad attitude and a measly solution. Will never eat a Tim Tam again. Show details
Best. Biscuits. Ever – Love the different flavours. The only problem is you run out so fast and eat too many at a time! The double coat is the best, and even better cold! Show details
white tim tams – ok, so. you want to try tim tams. listen to me. ik the go to is the orginal. dont have them. have the white flavour, its better. better then the other flavours. trust me. have the white ones. Show details
Delicious – These are delicious and got them on sale for two dollars fifty which is a bonus. Dip them in coffee and suck. It's great love the caramel centered ones too. Show details
Hard plastic in Tim Tam – I must say I'm like everyone else that loves Tim Tams but I think I've been put off them for for a while due to bite into a Tim Tam and it's instead biting into plastic was not a good experience.
