Re: But what then
The Fig Newton is named after Newton, Massachusetts, United States of America, and thus is neither a biscuit nor a cake, but a cookie.
Some vandal on Wikipedia calls it a "pastry", but this is plainly heresy and not worthy of further consideration.
(Or were you talking about Jaffas? Definitely cakes, and safer than any biscuit. I imagine Fig-Newton-related injuries are probably also on the low end.)
