Pepperidge Farms' Tim Tams are back at Target. Noticed them today when I was shopping. Apparently still only a seasonal offering. Tim Tams = Holidays! But at $3.00+ for a tiny package, I've resisted, so far.
Business Wire:
Last winter, Pepperidge Farm created an unprecedented cookie craze when it brought Australia’s favorite cookie, Tim Tam, to the U.S. for a limited time. Americans immediately understood why this iconic and delectable chocolatey ‘biscuit’ made by bakers at Arnott’s, a sister company of Pepperidge Farm1, has been so loved by Aussies for more than 40 years. Now, Pepperidge Farm is pleased to announce Tim Tam cookies will return for a limited time each year between the months of October and March!
The number one chocolate biscuit in Australia, Tim Tam cookies are truly irresistible! Beneath a smooth layer of heavenly chocolate fudge, between two layers of crispy biscuits, a mouthwatering layer of chocolate crème awaits. Pepperidge Farm is pleased to offer Tim Tam cookies in three decadent varieties. Chocolate Crème and Caramel are available at major supermarkets and grocery stores nationwide. And, making its debut this year, new
Tim Tam Classic Dark will be offered exclusively in Target stores across the country.
To help spread the word about the return of Tim Tam cookies, Pepperidge Farm has partnered with one of the cookies’ biggest and most discerning fans, Gail Simmons, judge of Bravo’s Emmy-nominated show Top Chef. “I can’t tell you how thrilled I am that Tim Tam cookies are back in the U.S.,” said Simmons, a food critic, trained chef, and Food & Wine magazine contributor. “They are such a phenomenon in Australia, where much of my family lives, and now people here have the opportunity to experience a genuine taste of Australia in their own homes. I think people will love sharing Tim Tam cookies with their friends and families this winter…I know I will!”
Gail is providing consumers in New York City with an extra sweet treat on Wednesday, October 14th at 12:30p.m. when she will open one of the first cases of Tim Tam cookies to make its way to American soil at South Street Seaport’s Pier 17 and share the contents with fans.
Consumers will have additional opportunities to celebrate their love of Tim Tam cookies through various activities on
http://www.ILoveTimTamCookies.com. Tim Tam fanatics are asked to share their passion by uploading a personal photograph or video. Each month, one photograph submission winner and one video submission winner will be awarded the ultimate prize: A Tim Tam cookies party pack including a free case of the delicious cookies, a single-use disposable camera, coffee mugs and a $10.00 music gift card, all of which will help set the scene for the ultimate Tim Tam celebration. Aside from the contest, consumers can use the web site to connect with others who share a love for the cookies, learn about becoming Tim Tam Facebook fans and Twitter followers, and even sign up for exclusive email updates from Pepperidge Farm.
“In keeping with the tradition of our founder, Margaret Rudkin, Pepperidge Farm is thrilled to offer Tim Tam cookies to American consumers. Margaret searched the globe to bring back delectable cookies and crackers to the U.S. that are now beloved icons to Americans, much like Tim Tam biscuits are to Australians,” said Brian Immel, Business Director, Adult Snacks at Pepperidge Farm. “We are excited to bring these scrumptious cookies back for the many Americans who enjoyed them last year, as well as to introduce Tim Tam to additional consumers through an extended release and broader distribution this winter.”

) "documentaries" from 2002 that are about as convincing as THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, and it's likely the producers knew it because they hired three "hostesses" for each film who not only express their opinions on the paranormal while modelling swimwear by the pool, but don some of the sexiest ghost-hunting outfits you've ever seen! Great stuff. Despite the "warning" on the VCD sleeve, these are pretty tame, probably no worse than a Category II.
, hopefully I will be able to get the others, allthough I wouldn't be suprised to see some of them go OOP once I place an order on them, already had a few cancellations of titles on my other orders.
