Biscuit companies who make biscuits that can't be dunked, without taking a bite

Or, mug manufacturers who make mugs too small to dunk a biscuit, without taking a bite?

"Get one of those Sports Direct mugs and your problem is solved. "

Ah but mug construction is key.

The sports direct ones are great if you're a speed dunker, as they're big enough to cope with a giant sized biscuit, but due to the diameter and the relatively thin walls, the coffee doesn't stay hot for long enough.

What's needed is a larger diameter mug, with thick walls to retain heat, providing you with up to an hour to work through your packet of hob nobs without being left dunking in a luke warm or cold caffeinated beverage.

I've done extensive research on this....

And the bigger the surface area, the quicker it's going to cool down too.

May be they are in cahoots - the biscuit company want you to take a bite before dunking so it doesn't feel like you've dunked enough and therefore consume more biscuits. The mug company purposely made their mugs small so you'd consume more biscuits. It's genius if you ask me

So it's also possible that McVitties have bought the patent on the perfect cup

Dunking is unnecessary unless it’s competitive.

Obviously practice is needed but casual dunking:just no.
