Thank you James, that has been very useful information. Silly me for not looking! How long have you liked Jaffas? | 24 May 2006 11:51 |

I don't remember when I first got into them, I guess I've just always loved them since I first tried one  | 28 May 2006 09:45 |

Jaffa cakes are free of VAT because they're classed as cakes, not biscuits. VAT on food items is added only when the food is seen as a luxury, i.e. crisps, sweets, fizzy drinks. Obviously cakes are essential and full of the nutrients we need , but the debate in court went something like this.....Definition of a biscuit "hard when fresh, soft when stale"....Definition of a cake "soft when fresh, hard when stale". Jaffa won the title of cake and has remained VAT free ever since. (This is what my brother told me anyway, he learnt it from his economics professor) x | 04 Mar 2008 01:14 |
