The law has decided that already!

The VAT office wanted to claim it was a biscuit because they got a higher VAT on biscuits. They took 'Jaffa' to court to PROVE it was a biscuit..... and they LOST!

This is how they decided it:-

When Biscuits get stale, they go soft, whereas, when cakes go stale, they dry out and go hard.

And what happens to a stale Jaffa Cake?...... it goes hard.... ergo... it's a CAKE!

Tha VAT office were NOT happy! GOOD!

More wierd still, have a guess what fruit the 'orangy bit' is made from?

Seriously, have a guess!
