You can get them in Wales. Jaffa cakes as in buscuits.. And also as in a type of cake form which is larger.


Oh I can get jaffa cakes quite easily. It is the NICE biscuits I miss, with coconut, in fact it is difficult to find any decent biscuits with coconut. I used to like coconut and choc chip cookies but they have vanished.

I guess I will have to make some :wink:

The US biscuit is very different from a UK biscuit.

A UK biscuit is almost always called a "cookie" in the US.

A US biscuit is only sweet if there's something like honey on it. It's usually salty. People put butter on it---or, especially in the South, they put meat gravy on it.

Then again, there are tea biscuits which are more like scones!

Prolly a class issue ?

I know your game. You're trying to lure me into your international biscuit smuggling ring. "Just pick up a package at the airport for me." That's how it always starts. Well I'm not falling for it. I've already spent enough time in jail.

I'm surprised they let you back out on the street after that biscotti caper.

I had good lawyers.


I know. And you're welcome. Lefty, Knuckles and Icepick are always at your disposal.

Icepick told me to remind you that you owe him fifty Biscake for the favour. He looked very hungry.

Sainsberrie's and Tesco both do their own NICE buscuits, and Iceland sell Crawford's.
