Not sure quite how many rivets, but by scale, each one must be about the size of a Jaffa Cake!

Is that a full size Jaffa Cake, or one of the mini lunch-box versions (what I like to think of as 'diet' Jaffa Cakes :wink: )?

I am sure Jestset will be able to tell you

He is an expert in such matters.

I am wondering if they are mushroom head rivets or Fungus the Bogy Man head rivets.

It's usually easy to tell

The mushroom head look like they should be flush.

The Fungus head look like they've already been flushed.

Dont think FTB would withstand curing temperatures for the redux process.... think he might go nicely with some bacon, onion and tomatoes and seasoning served on pasta though.

Leif, Jaffa Cakes certainly do still exist, and over the past 24hrs I have consumed a box full. I personally prefer the big size, but the lunch packs are great for stuffing them all in your mouth at once!
