Like a dream come true.
Many years ago, I spent some time working for a major charity which organised large fundraising events - world record attempts at wacky things and so on. One of these had over 3,000 attendees and was sponsored by McVities. As part of the sponsorship deal, they supplied a small pack of Jaffa Cakes for every attendee. These were delivered to the venue the day before whilst we setting up and part of my job was to check the storeroom and make sure everything was okay, which I did.
As I was checking up, I heard a click behind me. Someone walking past had obviously seen the open door and, worrying about possible Jaffa Cake theft, had closed and locked the door. I was momentarily worried, until it struck me that the storeroom had a tap so I wasn't going to die very quickly and, more to the point, I was locked, alone and unsupervised, in a room with ten thousand Jaffa Cakes.

I was rescued about an hour later, but it was great while it lasted.

How many?
If you could have managed a rate of about one every 0.4 seconds, you'd have cleared the lot. Probably impossible, but certainly worth an admirably Quixotic try.

Volume eaten.
I doubt I ate more than ten packs. They get pretty sickly very quickly, but I had to try.
The true magic was the moment of realisation where I was and what I could do...
Many of my friends dined mightily on Jaffa Cakes that night oo.

For some reason
I keep picturing the hobbits in LOTR when they found the pantry full of food...

This is amazing
I'm actually daydreaming about it happening instead of working. I need to go and buy some jaffa cakes now.
