Having consumed both, I can confirm that there is a remarkable similarity.
I preferred the Tim Tam.
But then I haven't had a Pengiun since I was a child, and never liked them. I may have warmed to them by now...

I always used to be really disappointed to find a Penguin in my lunch-box.
We took it in turns to choose the biscuit bars for packed lunch. I adored Tunnocks Caramel Wafers (uncoated with choc in those days) or Mint Clubs. Laura liked Penguins however, so they occurred regularly. If I was lucky, Suzanne or Mary would swap with me. If not I'd just give it away, on the usual schoolkid understanding that bought friends were still friends and would return the favour at some point.

You would have to pay me to do a Tim Tam Slam.
I would not sully my tea in that way.
Rich Tea biscuits are the only thing that get anywhere near my (Cellar) mug.
