[Politics] Are Jaffa Cakes biscuits?

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Poll to follow.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Well.......

 

[Rookie]

Cake, the courts have decided that

 

[Thunder Bolt]

No, next question?

If you leave a cake out it dries and if you leave a biscuit out it goes soft so technically they are cakes.

Apparently that was the argument that won over the HMRC as they have different VAT rates but I have never verified that so it might be nonsense.

That said a tomato is a fruit but I wouldn't put it in a fruit salad.

Totally this and you beat me to it! Jaffa Cakes taste great as a key ingredient blended in a milkshake, BTW... Shakeaway in Brighton do one with them and chopped up/blended chocolate orange and it's fab! Healthy too, with all that fruit...

No

In the year 2024 it can be what it wants to be.*

*for tax purposes though it is a cake.

These are a great afternoon tea snack

Cherry and lemon are the best.

Disputes can arise over the most seemingly trivial of things. One which perhaps took the biscuit is that of the humble Jaffa Cake. Find out more here.

Good question, I always used to smuggle them in from France under a stack of claret. . my guess is the McVities ‘jaffia’ would have do e me in if they’d caught me

No. After the comments earlier, I pulled a discarded packet from the recycling next to me and it states: '10 light sponge cakes...' That would be like saying Fairy cakes are biscuits, or even Battenberg!

Jaffa Cakes are – to me, anyway – arguably the finest sweet treat in the world. But a biscuit they most certainly are NOT!

As are peppers and cucumbers...

SALAD IS A LIE
