583853 Tue Dec 30 10:24:50 -0800 2008 27 23 Ontario (including Toronto) 0 4283107 Has anyone come across these Australian delicacies anywhere in the GTA, now that Sobeys are importing them (replacing Loblaws)? Last week, I spoke to a Customer Service representative at Sobeys who said, that while they can't tell if an individual Sobeys/IGA/Price Chopper carries one of the three varieties being imported, one can ask for a store to bring one or all three in. Tue Dec 30 10:24:50 -0800 2008 177825 taterbrandy 1 4283297 Is Loblaws no longer carrying them at all? I bought so many packages a while back, I haven't had an reason to check lately! Seriously, I need to know.

Tue Mar 03 17:23:41 -0800 2009 4284383 14906 Food Tourist 1 4285853 Strangely enough, I've seen them at the Chinese supermarket just west of Beverley and Dundas called Lucky Moose(?). It's in the aisle to the left of the ramp up to the meat/fish counter and frozen foods section. I'm pretty sure I saw several flavours too. Wed Dec 31 10:36:24 -0800 2008 4283107 252925 e_minor 1 4286382 I went to the three Loblaws around my area when news first broke of TimTam stock, and none of them had any. Nor did any of the staff have any idea what I was talking about. Luckily I just got back from NZ & Australia, so I have a supply in hand. Double chocolate all the way! Wed Dec 31 13:59:53 -0800 2008 4283107 119378 kiwiFRUIT 1 4286407 Thank you, Kai. I found them this afternoon at the Sobeys on Front Street. They are $3.49 a pack, and the three varietals are Original, Chewy Caramel, and Classic Dark. Hopefully, more Sobeys/IGA/Price Chopper etc. will list them. While Loblaws was the importer last time, a company called Concord Sales in North Vancouver is listed on the packages, and they are Product of Australia!

Wed Dec 31 14:12:08 -0800 2008 4283107 136386 devoir 1 4334592 Just came across the following news release. Doesn't help if you're looking in GTA - but if you're crossing the border you can satisfy your craving: Pepperidge Farm® Tim Tam™ Cookies Make American Debut Down Under Favorite Now Available in United States at Target Stores Nationwide for Limited Time Norwalk, CT (Nov. 11, 2008) - Bakers at Arnott's in Australia have been delighting consumers "Down Under" for over 40 years with Tim Tam™, an iconic Australian 'biscuit' that takes the sweet life from ordinary to Aus-some! Pepperidge Farm, sister company of Arnott's, is introducing this decadent favorite to Americans beginning this November to tempt, tantalize and delight, layer by layer. Both Pepperidge Farm and Arnott's are subsidiaries of Campbell Soup Company. "In keeping with the tradition of our founder, Margaret Rudkin, Pepperidge Farm is thrilled to introduce Tim Tam 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 Michael Simon, Senior Vice President/General Manager - Snacks Division at Pepperidge Farm. "We're certain Americans will soon understand why this scrumptious cookie is all the rage in Australia." 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 two delectable varieties - Chocolate Crème and Caramel. Available exclusively in Target stores nationwide, Tim Tam cookies are sure to bring deliciously sweet cheer to families this holiday season. With such a loyal following, it's no surprise that Australians consume over 400 million Tim Tam biscuits each year - that's 35 million packs. And earlier this year, a joint poll by The Times in the United Kingdom and news.com.au in Australia ranked Tim Tam as one of the best inventions since sliced bread. Tim Tam came in at number four behind stiff competition: The World Wide Web, penicillin and the TV remote! Pepperidge Farm Tim Tam cookies are available from November 2008 through March 2009 at Target stores nationwide, with a suggested retail price of $3.39.
