Researchers reveal the best biscuits for dunking via BBC: (2023) bbc.co.uk/newsround/6540… The first four...seriously???!!!

What's the best biscuit for dunking? Out of nowhere, shortbread could emerge as the winner here. #diversealz

Dunking/dipping biscuits in drinks...biscuit type? Shortbread was a no-no early in the #diversealz conversation. Now, it could be the winner. Where are the rich tea people?

Okay, we're back to biscuits and dunking in tea/coffee or milk or, as Americans might say, dipping in tea or coffee or milk. What biscuits did you dunk/dip. Timeline was saying no to shortbread but it could emerge as the winner. 😊

Questions via @shirleypeaceot 'Would you like some tea?' Do they mean a cuppa? If so what type do they serve here? Do I like it? Or do they mean a meal? If so, is it afternoon tea, high tea or what southerners call dinner? #diversealz Also relevant re: care home setting

Diverse Alzheimers Tea n the afternoon was the lead up to a proper tea.. dinner in our home.
