Do people here actually eat fruit cake/carrot cake? Always so gutted at weddings when the cake is finally unleashed and it’s one of those bad boys

 

Both are in my humble opinion utter trash

 

Honestly I don’t want to

 

How dare you, carrot cake is delicious. No one eats fruitcake though, that’s true. But the idea of one being served at a wedding is totally baffling to me so I wonder if we’re talking about the same fruitcake. In the US they basically only show up at Christmas and the same cake probably gets passed around to every family because no one wants it around.

 

i maintain my carrot cake take

 

Love an actual carrot tho

 

I’ve only ever seen fruit cake at weddings other than one time there was a sponge cake and I about died with happiness

 

You’re going to make me flip that question around on you even though you said not to.

 

You’ve gone to weddings and only ever been served this?

 

Usually darker than that but yes. With icing.

 

You need to stop seeing those people.

 

Trust me I’m way ahead of you. What sociopath finds the love of their life and decides they’ll celebrate that with a shit cake that everyone else is forced to eat

 

I’m trying to imagine what the reaction would be if someone in the US served just that fruitcake at a wedding and it’s surreal and frightening.

 

Hahahah oh there’d be blood.

 

Graham cracker crunch, maybe a pie or cheesecake flavor with it.
Is there a Ralph's open yet/rn in quarantine?

I love carrot cake. What I cant stand is whipped cream frosting. WHY?
And I hate when a bakery insists it's buttercream and I'm like "uh I can SEE the difference".. that's how much I hate it.

I'd be ordering a buttercream frosted cake through a food delivery app
(just for me, no sharing)

 

Also see: Ron at April's and Andy's wedding

 

Speaking of no sharing - I will never understand households that don’t portion out food and instead put everything out in bowls and on plates for everybody to get their own stuff. It has pros, sure, but I don’t want dinner to be a fucking competition. It makes me too anxious worrying if I’m being greedy / someone else isn’t getting as much because of me / eyeing up the bellend who just took four servings of stuffing, leaving none for me / leaning over people to get things or appearing impatient / things getting cold. Etc

whenever I see you guys celebrate Thanksgiving I quietly sob inside

 

All this talk of ice cream might make me order some to treat myself tomorrow.

 

I’m getting McDonald’s tonight and you bet your sweet Shak ass I’ll be getting a vanilla milkshake and a goddamn McFlurry.

 

Ill share food, but not cake, or ice cream (I dont share dairy products, gross)
I mean that's basically my experience growing up with siblings. Too slow=too bad.


Well if Thanksgiving is done correctly, theres enough for everyone to have at least 3rds at the meal, enough for everyone to take some home AND enough leftovers for the host for 3+ days

 

Christ. That’s a fuckton of food haha. Leftovers were never really a thing in my house
