Personally I decided, that as it's fluffy, it must be a cake.
But, it does go in the biscuit tin, and you do dunk it in tea, so that would make it a biscuit.
See why I'm confused?
As for cookies and crackers - it's nowhere near sweet enough to be a cookie, and you don't put cheese on it so it can't be a cracker,
hang on, now I want a jaffa cake and cheese....

Oh don't get me started on puddings.Lord Pounder wrote:Buscuits. They are called Jaffa CAKES to fool foreginers. Just look at black pudding and spoted dick. The Brits are renowned for misleading names with food.
The myth that a pudding has to be sweet is an evil lie propagated by the EU in an attempt to destroy our cuisine.
As for the strange American concept that pudding is synonymous with blancmange, pah!

It isn't in my dictionary, but from context it's synonymous with pudding. Go to the grocery store for details.verilon wrote:WTF is blaumounge..?innerbrat wrote: As for the strange American concept that pudding is synonymous with blaumounge, pah!

EDIT: Upon further investigation it appears that innerbrat meant to say "blancmange", which is a sweet molded dessert made of a starchy substance and milk.
I prepared Explosive Runes today.

Only the British would ruin a (presumably) perfectly good snack by dunking it into something as vile as tea.

I resent that. 
It's not just us, I seem to recall seeing a few Americans and a few Dutch people doing it on some chat show or another, and describing it as heavenly. It may have been on Graham Nortons show on C4.
Now, if you will excuse me, us hated British have to go and enjoy a steak and gravy filled Yorkshire Pudding, possibily followed by a cup of tea and a digestive biscuit, and then followed by the swift invasion of small defenceless countries that we've had our eye on for a while. I bid you good-day.
