jaffa cake is basically a soft sponge topped with orange marmalade covered by chocolate

I stuff myself with food every meal, but I only eat healthy food. i got no room for trashy food like cakes and cookies. These foods are unappealing. I'd rather eat a large bowl of hot goopy food like lentils, with some nice bread.

Conceptually, yes. Pims are definitely inferior to jaffa cakes though.

I feel unpatriotic saying it as a bong but Jaffa cakes are utterly disgusting. a disc of dry, crumbly, tasteless biscuit with a thin layer of sickeningly sweet sugary orange chemical substance topped with a micro-layer of brown stuff they're not allowed to call "chocolate". Vile.
