Default Which biscuit dunks best

As the title says , in your opinion , which is the best dunker. I am a firm believer in the chocolate digestive (McVities of course ) I only dunk in tea.

Hmmmm...not sure I can help with this one as I'm coeliac and have to eat gluten-free biscuits. They all fall apart if you dunk them too much.
I do miss a nice chocolate digestive. The gluten free versions just don't taste the same. It's butter shortbread that I miss the most though.

I haven't done that for years but it was Rich Tea when I did. What about soup though, white bread, brown bread, rolls, toast, crisps, croutons, more than one or none of them?
When I was a lad I used to have tomato soup and dump a packet of cheese and onion crisps into it. I still do it sometimes and also like toast with butter on for dipping in. I only do this with tomato soup though, other soup is wholemeal bread for me

Digestives all the way. I have a ritual too. I dunk for the count of 10 but it has to be a certain rhythm of counting. 1,2,3--4,5,6--7,8--9,10, all in my head. I find that the best level of soggyness. If a dunked biscuit falls in in our house we shout, "man down" and the closest to the kitchen grabs a spoon. We're all a bit mad in my house.

Tomato soup is the biz when you put grated cheese into it...
Slurp up the soup and eat the lush melted cheese ��

As for biccys - I used to love dunking malted milk and custard creams. Of course I would lose the malted milk in the tea most of the time. xx
