You lot want your cake and eat it!


Bounty is right, they are cakes not biscuits.


Shops might put them in the biscuit aisle but then that is their choice.

Awful argument maybe, but relevant - which you didnt deny, and i thankyou for acknowledging its validity.


To be honest, i couldnt give a monkeys if its a cake or a biscuit, but i think you are right - correct descriptions and definitions AT ALL TIMES please... we'll have no slang terms, no nicknames, and no regionalisms. If it is not as quoted in the dictionary then woe betide those who may or may not incur the wrath of the "Grammar Police"

What about the 'Punctuation Police' though Lemoneye - you had a couple of apostrophes missing there I think!
