Dunking

dunk not sunk. It has never done that because I keep a tight hold of one end.

I sunk my croissant into my latte but only in the Waitrose cafe.

I also dunk bread in soup - the two go perfectly together. I've seen plenty of people doing it in fancy restaurants, too.

G/Ners are frightfully posh Darling, don"t you know !!

You are funny, soontobe!

I would never dunk biscuits in tea but would always dunk bread in soup..and I would wipe my plate with bread...Don't know about posh but I like to enjoy my food and eat like the French!

anno I found that you beat me to it with your post!Gingernuts in tea, always tricky.

Yes, I am extremely posh, and think that dunking bread in soup is a flogging offence, the woman should have been dragged out of the establishment by the head waiter.
Dunking in one's own mansion is another thing entirely darling, and I admit that I always dunk ginger biscuits in my cup of Earl Grey.It's a sad fact though, that half of the biscuit always vanishes to the bottom of the cup if the tea is too hot, and one gets it all over one's chin when reaching the last inch or so of tea.

My granny was very much a 'lady' and as she dunked biscuits (especially gingernuts) in her tea, I feel free to do it too, though I don't like mushy biscuits at the bottom of the mug. As for soup, well, why not?

Only at home on both counts.

Generally? As a generalisation? In comparison to the UK as a whole?

Can I ask something. Shush!
Are gransnetters quite posh?

No and yes.
No.
But there is a social setting where we have been meeting for years, and we all feel so comfortable with each other, that if the biscuits are eg Rich Tea, then 2 or 3 might. So yes, I have been known to.

No but I also do it at home especially tomato.. mmmmnnnnnn

Well going on from dunking , what about double dipping that really turns me off !!

No, although I do it at home.

However....I never dunk biscuits in tea/coffee - I think that's disgusting! and a brazen Yuk!

Absolutely - dunking rules!

Definitely not!

Standards daaaaaaaahling.
