McVities
McVities biscuits originated from Edinburgh in Scotland around 1830, then known as "McVitie & Price Ltd".
There are small holes in mcvities digestive biscuits because when they are baking them in the oven, the biscuits need some "air" so that they do get baked properly. (no mushy stuff left in the middle) lol.
The McVities ones are made in West London, UK.

It is a cake, of course! That's why it's called Jaffa CAKE. Despite the fact that the answers above says it's a cake and it has the name cake in it, It is still classed as a biscuit. First, Jaffa Cakes have a biscuit material ontop with just a coating inside of it which only makes it taste soft, also they are find it biscuit iles in Asda, Tesco etc, Therefore it has to be a biscuit. Their features are simmaler to a biscuits so I'm sure you would know. Under UK law, no Value Added Tax (VAT) is charged on biscuits and cakes --- they are "zero rated". Chocolate covered biscuits, however, are subject to VAT. McVities classed its Jaffa Cakes as cakes, but in 1991, this was challenged by Her Majesty's Customs and Excise and the case ended up before the courts.[8] This may have been because Jaffa Cakes are about the same size and shape as some types of biscuit, and particularly because they are commonly eaten alongside, or instead of, traditional biscuits. The court asked "What criteria should be used to class something as a cake?" McVities defended its classification of Jaffa Cakes as cakes, producing a 12" (30 cm) Jaffa Cake to illustrate that its Jaffa Cakes were simply miniature cakes.[9] McVities argued that a distinction between cakes and biscuits is, among other things, that biscuits would normally be expected to go soft when stale, whereas cakes would normally be expected to go hard. It was demonstrated to the Tribunal that Jaffa Cakes become hard when stale. Other factors taken into account by the Chairman, Potter QC, included the name, ingredients, texture, size, packaging, marketing, presentation, appeal to children, and manufacturing process. Potter ruled that the Jaffa Cake is a cake. McVities therefore won the case and VAT is not paid on Jaffa Cakes.
