I think it's a really pretty cake to look at...but that's all. I would never eat something like that.

I don't pay attention to almost any of the food product hysterics. Nevertheless I make my own cakes.

What'd ya' say?  I can't hear you......I'm too busy eating my Cheryl's cookies that were just delievered.....

Cookies and milk, doesn't get much better than that.

Actually my Aunt I lived with growing up (back then) made all of her cakes from scratch.  But then she didn't work, have children, etc.

She was an amazing cook, but that was back in the 50's.

@Ketra   Good grief!  I make my own with none of the above in it.  I don't understand why all of that c--p needs to be in their cakes, as they supposedly make them to order and are refrigerated.

@nomless   Sugar, butter, and flour may not be healthy, but it is a lot healthier than what is in this cake, no comparison.

@mousiegirl  I know, it’s scary what they are dumping in our food. The Fraud and Deception Agency (FDA] used to regulate what went into our food about 15 years ago, but I believe they have other interests now. Between genetically modifying our food and putting in harmful chemicals, no wonder why we have such high rates of autoimmune disease and cancer in this country.

@Bhvbum  We’re sharing “our opinions” about foods and harmful ingredients commonly found in foods. Not once in this thread has anyone told any else that they cannot eat what they want to. I frankly don’t care what you eat.

Oh good grief, it's a cake...one slice & your done, it's not something you eat everyday. These overblown reactions to ingredients is going to make people stop listening, just like they have with weather warnings.
