malted milk, the ones with the cows on them

Bourbons - always grab a few packs of Asda brand ones when I'm there - they might only be 15p a pack but they are just as nice as the more expensive branded ones! (imo)

 

[Grimley]

Dark chocolate digestives for the win!

Lies.

Custard Creams

Oh yes

Gone off Hobnods, it's like eating gravel.

McVities Dark Chocolate Digestives are my all time favourite, I don't buy them otherwise I eat the whole packet!

1 Biscuit = Not Enough
2 Biscuits = Very nice but leaves you wanting more
3 Biscuits = Decadent and now feel guilty
4 Biscuits = Well if you've done 3 you may as well have 4
5 Biscuits = After 4 you may as well not count
5 Biscuits = Feel like a complete fatty so may as well not worry now

I have no will power when it comes to McVities Dark Chocolate Digestives

 

[Azagoth]

For some reason, this sprang to mind!

Just for the record, mine are Chocolate Malted Milk.

 

[TheOtherOption]

No lies honest guv' - they really are lovely - oh and the own brand Jaffa cakes are nice enough too - but then I do like the original McVitie's ones now and again!

 

[HEADRAT]

But surely the Jaffa Cake is not a biscuit!

 

[TheOtherOption]

Grrr I'm not one for being pedantic about such things.

 

[Monkey Puzzle]

Custard Creams
Chocolate Hob Nobs

It's only a cake for tax reasons. We all know it's a biscuit at heart.

HAHA: E-gad someone may have opened a can of worms here.

Jaffa Cake... the name disqualifies it from being a biscuit.

Furthermore, one will note that a sponge based item of confectionery cannot be classed as a biscuit at all. The constitution of a jaffa cake renders it a cake, and the best subcategory for the Jaffa cake is indeed in that of cake.

Good.

 

[HEADRAT]

I concur, it's not a biscuit and the law agrees:-


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaffa_Cake

Mr Potter Queens Council ruled that the Jaffa Cake is a cake. McVities therefore won the case and VAT is not paid on Jaffa Cakes (as choccy covered biscuits are liable to VAT at 17.5%.)

Nope, biscuits go soft if you leave them, cakes go hard. The jaffa cake goes hard. Ergo, it is a cake.

Same with the M&S Chocolate Tea Cake which is costing the government (and therefore us) so much in relcaimed VAT.
