The Jaffa “Cake” Debate.
7 August 2009The age-old debate about whether a Jaffa Cake is indeed a cake or a biscuit has as I’ve recently learned been through Parliament.
It’s officially classed as a cake at the moment and therefore under a lower tax bracket than if it were a biscuit.
If the Government had their way it would be reclassed as a luxury biscuit(a biscuit wrapped and in a fancy box) and would therefore be taxable and the yummy little Jaffas would go up in price. So far though the Mcvities guys have managed to keep it classed as a cake.
Government 0 – Mcvities 1
They’re still smashing with a cuppa either way.
Who holds the record for the number of Jaffa cakes in their mouth at the one time?
