An even more dangerous question is whether Jaffa Cakes are cakes or biscuits. I say they should just be categorized as "yummy."

Well, some people say that we are all in some way a part of the whole cosmic donut. We exist in the mind of the donut and it in ours, hence the circularity nature of the donut. Others say that donuts can only really exist in a particular time/space unit of being when they are not, in fact, being observed and that the obxervation of the dount then leads to the observer being unable to fully grasp the location of said dount. Still others say the the donuts are there and we have to take it on faith that they exist, any doubting being heresy of the blackest kind.

Personally, I think Am ate them.

Maybe the Yeti helped out with one or two.
Is the universe a doughnut?

You see, when you go the "lumper" way, rather than the "splitter" way, you end up with lots of confusion and muddled thinking. You might as well say that there are no differences between the Odd Karmites and the Even Karmarans. :sheesh:

They have been officially classified as cakes. This is important - biscuits and cakes are exempt from VAT, but biscuits with chocolate on them are classed as luxury items, and therefore have VAT charged on them.
