Dunk Mug

Spotted this new Dunk Mug product - apparently one of the hot items (no pun intended) for Christmas this year.

Is it just me, or are there some major flaws in the product design?

For example, it seems to work beautifully for large, round flat biscuits as illustrated, but it’d be rubbish for any biscuit NOT fitting that description. So, digestives, great. But custard creams? Garibaldi? Nice biscuits? Shortbread fingers? Notsomuch.

Also, anything involving chocolate would surely suffer the proximity of hot beverage, wouldn’t it? And the last thing you want is melted Fingers. Plus, no drinking with your left hand, unless you want a lapful of crumbs.

Have I thought about this too much?
