How many Jaffa cakes do you reckon you could eat?

[rogerzilla]

As title.

[Julian]

Three.

Then three more a little later. 

[Zoidburg]

I see them as a "grazing" food stuff so I treat the consumption of said cake as an ongoing and unmeasurable process.

[αdαmsκι]

Over what time frame?

[Wowbagger]

I'm not overly keen on jaffa cakes. I could eat quite a lot of them, quite quickly, but I'd rather have something tastier.

A scene on H-B-K-H, as recounted by Salvatore:

There was one of those 'what on earth are we doing here' moments sitting on the forecourt of the petrol station at Lütgenrode, sharing a meal of Jaffa Cakes and Pringles with eck, bodach and George, while the rain bucketed down. This was after a 140 km leg through the Harz and before a 130km leg to Messinghausen, which we rode straight through.

So my answer is: NO MORE. PLEASE 

[Charlotte]

Probably ten.  But I might feel a little ickky.

An ex of mine used to be able to eat a dozen creme eggs in one sitting.  Four eggs, cup of tea, four eggs, more tea, four eggs.  Remarkably, despite this sort of gluttony, she was a size ten.

[rogerzilla]

I know a guy who ate a half-gross box of Cadbury's Flakes for charidee.

They didn't stay down long.

The name has become generic, I use Lidl ones as bonk food at the moment, they have a high ratio of filling and chocolate to cake, Asda ones have too much cake. I can eat trifle sponges as a snack though, and porridge oats straight from the packet. I could probably do about 50 of the Lidl ones with no real pause.

[Zoidburg]

The trick is to pace yourself.

Nibble, don't stuff.

[Biggsy]

One is never enough.  Two or three is optimal.  I could perhaps eat ten in one go, but wouldn't really enjoy more than three.  That goes for most biscuits or small cakes.

[Zoidburg]

How many Jaffa Cakes do you reckon you could force someone to eat?

You know...before it felt cruel.

[Jaded]

coop has a 2 for one offer on, so I might go try this out 

[Cudzoziemiec]

One packet straight, no pauses, I reckon. I don't know how many are in a packet, presumably it varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. After a cup of tea I could probably eat another half packet. But only if I was really hungry. It would depend on flavour too - I couldn't eat a whole packet of the toffee or caramel flavour. Nor the ones with white chocolate, but thankfully you don't see those often. These are my favourite. I will now have to buy a packet so I can find out how many it has! 

[Zoidburg]

Like the Deer Hunter with Jafa Cakes.

MAU!

MAU!

DIDI MAU!

[Eccentrica Gallumbits]

All of them, no problem.

*You have missed 3 out.
I assume you mean boxes.

[Zoidburg]

I like to pop them in the freezer for a bit so you can nibble the now crunchy chocolate covering off first.

[geraldc]

I was trained in the classic method of Jaffa cake eating. I lick the chocolate off, then use my incisors to strip the jelly, then eat the cake. Takes about 5 mins. So eating more than 20 is too time consuming, and my face would be totally covered in chocolate.

[rogerzilla]

Sainsbury's ones seem identical to the real thing, except that the cellophane is clear and not orange.  I used the cellophane from a real packet to make our outside light all warm and Christmassy last year.

[fuaran]

Where's the option for none?

That means you managed to set fire to the wrapper doesn't it?

[Polar Bear]

I have to admit that I have downed a box in one sitting.   I could have eaten more...

[gonzo]

I once went to a supermarket and took full advantage of bogof; I bought a crate of 15 boxes and got another crate of 15 free!

[jogler]

I have to be absolutely ravenous to even consider just one....but it has been done
