Australian actresses Sarah Snook and Isla Fisher recently introduced American audiences to the famous Tim Tam Slam while appearing separately on two major talk shows — The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and The Kelly Clarkson Show.
The Tim Tam Slam, a popular Australian ritual, involves using a Tim Tam cookie as a straw to sip a hot drink like tea or coffee. Both actresses shared this playful demonstration with their respective hosts, sparking delight and laughter on set.

“Are we just eating cookies together?”
Jimmy Fallon joked as the studio band played in the background.
“Use it as a straw,”
Snook encouraged, leading Fallon to marvel as the cookie softened in the tea.
“Weird, it’s totally working... It’s totally soft and yummy, oh my god!”
He later called the experience “a game changer” and promised he would never forget his first Tim Tam Slam.
Isla Fisher also showcased the same quirky snack technique on The Kelly Clarkson Show, ensuring the beloved Australian cookie gained new fans across the United States.
