ahh thats an easy one soz i study accounting.  well its because anything with chocolate is chargged vat because its considered confectionary.  so chocolate biscuits are allwaysds more expensive.   and unfortunatley jaffa cakes are included

funny old world. 

In fact the cake/biscuit debate was won recently by McVities because they proved the difference between cakes and biscuits is that when stale, biscuits go soft but cakes go hard.

What I can't fathom is why VAT (a tax on luxuries in theory) is applied to biscuits but not cakes - never mind, long live the JaffaCAKE.

You really do wonder whether any1 at oxbridge actually does any work in between writing to bicuit companies and the huge number of other distractions, I went up to Oxford with my school recently and went round 3 colleges, I saw about 3 ppl working in total! My application's all but written!!
