Biscuits

[puter killer]

Bet you all go home and eat them pink wafer things anyway-girls!

 

[rest have risen above me]

I've just had a packed lunch from the mess and included was a "Wagon Wheel" why are they so small nowadays??????? I seem to remember that you couldnt eat a whole one as a kid. And if you were posh enough to be able to afford a 4 pack then that was it.. shopping over no room in the basket for anything else...DT_Xtremez_08:

oh that old chestnut!

yes they were bigger, (and you were smaller)

Me? I'm too young to remember them being much bigger.

My treat when I used to come home from schoold was either a 'Trio' or a 'breakaway'

Of course, My mother would get reported to social services these days for feeding me chockie biscuits and not fruit.

Obviously you're not listening at school....spelling....ther's no "d" in school.

What is it tonight then "trio or Breakaway"? DT_Xtremez_15:

The mess aren't doing bad with retro buiscuits though, yesterday was Blue Riband. (They've not been LEAN'd though and are as big as ever)

 

[The origional Pob]

Hows about digestives with a splodge of jam with a marshmallow on top then all toasted???..... Or as it only my Mum did that to us?.

and there is an e in the shortened form of there is - there's.

Blue Riband - now there's a memory.

Tonight will be a pint of black sheep and a bag of KP Nuts, not a biscuit in sight - but it is friday.

Damn.... That'll teach me to check English....I couldn't work out how to get the accent over the E or I would have said Tooshay.
Surely it's a pint of Rainbow Sheep (according to certain Nursery schools) nowadays. Enjoy..DT_Xtremez_14:

Could it be a chocolate bar?

Could it be a chocolate bar?

I know we're on the Cake/Biscuit debate, but you can get Jaffa CAKE bars now as well.DT_Xtremez_09:
This is only further mudding of the water,as with this new development it could, possibly be a Chocolate bar!DT_Xtremez_03:
Why are they doing this to us!

 

[Who? Me?]

They are just trying to create a division amongst the faithfull followers of the BISCUIT faith so that when the War Of Reckoning comes we will not be a single entity to thwart those that follow the false path of cake.

[budgie]

Do not be fooled by the witches that preach Biscuit!

Only the softness of CAKE can lead to paradise!

I've never been to a Jaffa Cake/Biscuit (Still on the fence) Bar , are they any good? Do you get a decent class of totty in them?DT_Xtremez_15:

 

[budgie]

I belive there is one in Seville, all the birds are ginger of hair. Must be all the oranges they eat!

 

[Stax]

A Jaffa Cake is a Biscuit!
A Jaffa Cake Bar is a Cake!
Is that clear now1


BISCUIT!

 

[TheHogwartsBEngO]

I refer you to my previous threads and affirm that they are both:

CAKES

 

[Drunk Janner from GUZZ]

Biscuit heaven

Biscuit heaven

I can quite easily demolish a pack of Fox's Crunch Creams along with downing a pint of milk, its a sort of good bad balancing act. Biscuits bad milk good. easy!

As for the biscuit cake debate, her indoors is a qualified chef type person and she says

CAKE

"It's got sponge on it and sponge is a cake, alright" To quote

If this does not solve the issue then I call for a parlimentary Public Enquiry on the Jaffa Cake issue.

[TheHogwartsBEngO]

Back on the thread....

The VATman wanted to class Jaffa cakes as biscuits as VAT is levvied on biscuits - they are a luxury item. Cakes are not subject to VAT as they are a food. McVities fought (and won) a court case in 1991 to prove that they are in fact a CAKE to prevent them being subject to VAT.

The case was won on the definition that when cakes go stale they go hard, whereas biscuits, when stale, go soft. Jaffa cakes go hard when stale.

They are cakes.

ahthangyou. DT_Xtremez_28:

(edited for accuracy of court case date)

Parlimentary enquiry? - no need!

you people just don't listen.

CAKE

 

[Plumber]

Are you all fools or what. It's a biscuit and that is that.

 

[FOMz]

TheHogwartsBEngO, Don't try pulling rank on this one - it won't work.

By the supreme power of the smashing jaffa orangey bit...................

BISCUIT

Lots in a packet, you can eat a whole box, you can dunk them, they are in the biscuit aisle at the supermercado, they are round and flat.

Ergo they are and shall always remain a
