Its not the destination, it's the journey.
 
Cake.

Is this earth or some // version? CAKE. ALWAYS HAS BEEN.

Categorisation as cake or biscuit for VAT

In the United Kingdom, value added tax is payable on chocolate-covered biscuits, but not on chocolate-covered cakes.[10] McVities defended its classification of Jaffa Cakes as cakes at a VAT tribunal in 1991, against the ruling that Jaffa Cakes were biscuits due to their size and shape, and the fact that they were often eaten in place of biscuits.[11] McVities insisted that the product was a cake, and according to rumour produced a giant Jaffa Cake in court to illustrate its point.[11] After assessing the product on eleven criteria, including "texture", "attractiveness to children" and "consistency when stale",[12] the court found in favour of McVities, meaning that VAT is not paid on Jaffa Cakes in the United Kingdom.[10][13]

I find the Lidl ones nicer than the McVities.
 
Just tried a couple of those cherry jaffa cakes. Very nice.

Tried the pineapple ones, a bit bland and somewhat tasteless. More scented than flavoured.

Will look for the cherry though
