If you dunk a biscuit in a cup of tea for a little too long, it goes soggy and breaks off.
BUT, if you dunk the same sort of biscuit in hot chocolate, it takes loads longer to go soggy 
hows that work then ??
my flabber has never been so ghasted  |

"Hot chocolate will have less water content ...
beat me to it!!
hot chocolate is more viscous so will travel more slowly through the biscuit matrix  "
huh, always some smart arses want to come up with a logical explanation, still prefer the gremlin theory  |

One of the guys at work was talking about something similar today.
He has a book which is basically talking about the science of biscuit dunking.
In it he said a chocolate covered biscuit won't disintegrate as the sugar in the chocolate holds it together, whereas a tea biscuit or digestive doesn't have that protection.
I wonder if something similar is working there

"water boils at 200 degrees celcius

So your hit choc made with milk is a lower temp than the tea...."
Surprised nobody has mentioned that the boiling point of water is 100ºc or 212ºf |
