Toddler DS decided sleep was for wimps last night and was up and bouncy between 11 and 3 last night. Thank god it's not a day I go to work! However I'm so tired and the best way to make me feel better this morning was to have a big cup of coffee and some Jaffa cakes. IANBU am I?

They also baked a giant Jaffa cake to present to the people making the decision.

Did they eat it or was it left to go stale?

Well I've just eaten iced carrot cake for breakfast. Very nice too!

I never understood why their was a question in the first place..."Is a Jaffa Cake a cake or a biscuit?" It's in the sodding name! And its made of sponge, and its not hard, its a bloody cake!

You don't need a cake fork to eat a Jaffa Cake so it must be a fusion.

sue52 I don't need a fork to eat any kind of cake!

Ruby...
your syllogism doesn't work. What if Jaffa cakes were a sort of bread? Then your premises would be true but your conclusion false.
You could add a premise saying that cakes AND ONLY CAKES go hard when they get stale. That would make the argument valid, but it wouldn't be true. I think it would be better to add a premise saying that Jaffa cakes are EITHER cakes or biscuits.

I couldnt just eat 3 jaffa cakes, it's the whole box or nothing. If you smooshed them up and lumped them together they would only amount to one cake slice really so it's allowed.
