Change the number the TimTams in a packet from 11 to 12 so they can be shared equally.
The issue
Currently a standard packet of TimTams contain 11 TimTams. With 11 being a prime number there is no way to divide them evenly unless between 11 people. By including just 1 more TimTam in a packet the sharing capabilities are maximised. With 12 TimTams you can share with 2, 3, 4 or even 6 different people evenly meaning no more fights for who gets that last TimTam.
I believe this is an Australian wide issue to standardise TimTam servings and remove the need for the final TimTam fight and everyone should have the right to an fair amount of TimTams!!!
This could be solved in two ways:
- There is one additional TimTam added included in every package bring the grand total to 12. If this means paying 20 cents more, so be it.
- The number of TimTams shrinks and there is only 10 in a packet. Although 10 is indeed less then 12 and is less divisible, it is a more feasible option and any amount is better for sharing then 11.
I hope Arnott's can sit back and think about the countless relationships that have been ruined all over the single remaining TimTam.
