    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I read somewhere once that it is impossible to eat a whole water biscuit without needing to take a drink of water (or some other liquid).

    I haven't tried. If anyone does, please let me know if it is true!

    It's my own fault for stuffing it in my big gob without testing it first :-[. It's soo yummy and I enjoy it so much I couldn't wait for it to cool down ;D

    Isn't it 3 cream crakers? and wasn't there an advert on telly where 2 blokes sat opposite each other at a table and tried to eat 3 each. It might have been for beer ???

    I hated the ad, always made me feel a bit ill :-X
