    Quite frankly, no, is the short answer..... but my willpower is probably a lot worse than yours!

    We've just been out for a few drinks and now having a pizza as it's the last day before the wedding diet kicks in in earnest as I'd love to lose 1/1.5 stone before 3rd October.... not 100% certain how doable this is!!

    I got told off for eating Jaffa Cakes in the CADlab, but by the time I had realised how many I had eaten, there were two left! I scoffed one and hid the other in my glasses case for later in the day! OOOOOOps! I'm such a fat piggy!

    thats the problem you see, by the time you've realised how many you've eaten your past the halfway point, and it seems so pointless to put less than half a packet back!!! oh dear im sooo naughty!!!

    Becky- your nearly my date twin then, im the 2nd!!!

    Impossible to open a packet without eating them all! Besides, they are tight with the amount they give you, 12 per pack or something? ?

    I think there's a law that says once opened you have to finish the packet. It also applies to Pringles & Hobnobs (esp choc ones)

    I think the answer is no.. it also applies to any form of yummy-naughty-ness! x

    Have you tried the Strawberry Jaffa Cakes? I had some the other day, wasn't really sure what to make of them. Also, can they really be called Jaffa cakes still if they are made of Strawberry, and not orange? Lol

    Jaffa Cakes have to eaten in multiples of three. That's why they come in packs of twelve.

    Therefore if you've eaten four jaffa cakes, you then have to eat another two to round it up to six.

    Them's the rules. I don't make em.
