We tried the blackcurrant ones, and DH now prefers them to the orange.   Im neutral... im still holding out hope of finding raspberry!!!

Oh...and... am i the only one anal enough to believe that all these different-flavoured jaffa cakes should not be called 'jaffa' cos 'jaffa' is a type of orange?  :-\\\\    perhaps i am...

Wasn't ever able to find raspberry jaffa cakes, but I have tried the raspberry 'pims' that I spoke of earlier, and they were fabulous!!!  From looking at the pims boxes they also make orange (which I've tried), and pear, which I haven't been able to find anywhere but they sound interesting!
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

That sounds, to me, like it would be a bit bland...  ???

I'll be anal with you and say Jaffa cakes aren't biscuits. They fought the government to have cake status.

But seriously, I find Jaffa cakes to be a bit like liqour.  The first couple go down a bit hard, but the more you have the better they taste.   :)   And they are well known by teenagers to give a big sugar rush. 

I thought of you all today  ;) I was on a home visit in a new neighborhood for me and had 30 mins to kill so I popped into Iceland to have a look around... 2 for 79p Jaffa Cakes. I bought a Lemon & Lime and Black Currant. The lemon one was ok, the black currant not so good. It was a long home visit and I was starving and ended up eating the entire box of lemon ones plus 2 black currant ones.  :-X I found they are palatable chocolate side down on your tongue.  :P I think my jaffa binge will be it for a long time to come!!!

I bought the M&S ones today, they are definitely nicer than the McVities but I wish they did the lemon/lime ones.  I'm not going to tell you how many I just ate!

Ok I finally tried the infamous Jaffa cakes.. the orange ones. At first I didn't care that much for them, the cake part was really dry. I do enjoy the chocolate and orange part though. I bought an extra tube of them to bring home and found those much nicer... I am converted now...yum!  ;D Good thing I can't get them easily here I guess. No good for my diet!  :P
