Day Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Not sure about this one you know. Jaffa when it’s got no orange in? I hope it doesn’t go on to ruin the Jaffa reputation of being one of the greatest biscuits of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I see the cake baiting. My issue is your lousy research. The chocolate hobnob is the greatest biscuit of all time. Only people who hate nice biscuits would say anything else. I like Cola sweets so definitely will be giving these a go. Everyone accepts the offer of a Jaffa too so looking forward to handing them out without saying owt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted June 6 Author Share Posted June 6 Just looked on Tesco, they also now do cherry and raspberry. If anyone starts with that cake nonsense, look at what Tesco are even calling them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone starts with that cake nonsense, look at what Tesco are even calling them. Let me start by backing the biscuit campaign. They’re on the biscuit aisle for good reason. However, if Tesco have to add the word “and” between “chocolate biscuits” and “Jaffa cakes”, it infers they are not grouped together. Like “Cooked meats AND Cheese”! A better phrase for the cause would have been “back to Jaffa cakes and OTHER chocolate biscuits”! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramit Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 What is it with Brits and biscuits and furthermore what is this Jaffa fetish? Isn't milk in tea embarrassing enough? Mucker1884 and uttoxram75 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaltRam Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Original Jaffa Cakes are minging. All derivative versions are inedible. b****** inbred chimera Satan child of cakes and biscuits, with added jelly concentrate. I'd sooner have an over-dunked Rich Tea fished out of my brew with a spoon. uttoxram75 and Kinder 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop the chocolate coated jelly in and let the chocolate dissolve just leaving the blob of orange jelly. Lovely. My dad once brought home about 400 packets of Digestives that had fell of the back of a lorry in the early 80's. They were still there 2 years later when he absconded. Dried up portions of misery that are truly the biscuit of Satan. Everyday for eternity. TigerTedd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinder Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 I’d try the cola ones, but the originals are Beelzebub’s confectionery. Chocolate and orange have no business together as far as I’m concerned. Terry’s can get in the bin anorl. DarkFruitsRam7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I went to visit relatives in Scotland, it was guaranteed that when the biscuit tin was bought out there'd be at least three or four of these inside. Unfortunately just like Penguins and Club biscuits, their covering of chocolate is a lot less than it use to be. Mucker1884 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just the lack of chocolate, its the chocolate itself. Most cheap chocolate is watered down with palm oil nowadays so the bit you do eat isn't as tasty as it used to be. Chocolate used to be made with cocoa butter, now it gets thinned out with vegetable oil, mainly mass produced palm oil. They add extra sugar to make it taste nicer.
