Re: Jaffa Cakes
My husband really likes Jaffa cakes too! Sometimes he can eat two or three packets in an afternoon! 
And my mother once told my husband that if you eat enough Jaffa Cakes, it makes your semen taste different - needless to say he wanted to know if it was true!
And no I don't want to know how my mother knew

Re: Jaffa Cakes
Never mind the Jaffa cakes, how am I going to cope without Soda bread, potato bread and Tayto crisps!!!!!!
Think I'll have to learn to bake.

Why would you not be able to get soda bread?

Re: Jaffa Cakes
There's a fantastic european supermarket called Santa Barbara Market on Commercial Drive in Vancouver that also sells them:
The apricot ones are really nice, I actually prefer them to jaffa cakes!
They do a whole bunch of other nice stuff too, like blackcurrent juice. Much tarter and stronger than ribena though, but a bit of water and sugar and it tastes around the same. A lot cheaper than imported ribena though.

Those are the same ones that I found in Food Basics - see my original post in the thread - (it's the 1st one).
