Author Topic: Which is better -- Cake or Pie? Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-19-2009 09:07 PM                     I've read ennough here today... I have to go watch Cake Challenge on Food Network!!! WOW! One Two Three Four Five Posts!  |  IP: Logged Sam Graham AKA: "The Evil Sam Graham". Wackiness ensues. Posts: 1431 From: Waukee, IA Registered: Dec 2004 posted 08-19-2009 09:57 PM                        How in the hell did four pages of this crap show up in one day? The finest cake around, of course is Boston Cream...Pie. Which is one hell of a dilemma if you think about it.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-19-2009 10:20 PM                        quote: Randy Stankey Doesn't an ice cream "cake" have actual cake in it too? Ice cream on top. Cake on the bottom? Dairy Queen ice cream cakes are all ice cream -- with icing on top. MMMMMMMM good! But they'll put in stuff like cookie chunks and so on with the ice cream. I hate it when desserts are too sweet or rich. Restaurants seem to be competing to see how many different kinds of chocolate they can put in, on, or under a cake. I can only eat a few bites and I'm just too sweet for my own good.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 08-19-2009 10:39 PM                        Dairy Queen ice cream cakes are rock hard. Very difficult to eat.  |  IP: Logged Luke Anderson Film Handler Posts: 25 From: Spokane, Wa Unites States Registered: Jun 2009 posted 08-20-2009 12:36 AM                    It depends on who is making in and what kind it is. A friend of the family makes a killer pineapple upside down cake, and another makes an amazing carrot cake. My mother in-law makes the best lemon marangue and my mother makes the best Pecan pie, but give me a slice of blue berry or huckleberry anytime with a big dab of cool whip on top. But I can't really have any of that due to my diabetis and chron's disease. You guys suck for making me so hungry for the crap I can't have. Why not just offer my 2 year old a beer? -Luke  |  IP: Logged Andy Bajew Expert Film Handler Posts: 136 From: Bellaire, Texas Registered: Jun 2009 posted 08-20-2009 01:08 AM                     quote: Randy Stankey But, which would she eat first? Cake or pie? It would be a mixture of both. One huge bowl and a potato masher is all she needs.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-20-2009 02:55 AM                     quote: Andy Bajew It would be a mixture of both. LOL! Does she eat with one of those little plastic shovels like kids play with in the sandbox? *** Luke, what are your trigger foods? Can you eat any chocolate? Or, can you, at least, tolerate a little bit of chocolate without too much problem? What about egg whites? For the diabetes, do you use fructose or Splenda? Or, do you just avoid sugar and starch?  |  IP: Logged Andy Bajew Expert Film Handler Posts: 136 From: Bellaire, Texas Registered: Jun 2009 posted 08-20-2009 08:32 AM                     Plastic shovel as a kid? No, of course not. As I said, she leaves the bakery empty. Her method, beside the bowl and potato masher, involves using just her hands. -------- Luke- I am hypoglycemic--I have a general understanding of diabetes as well. There are tons of pies that require absolutely no sugar. Not to turn this into a cooking forum, but pie crust, tons of cut up granny smith apples and a bunch of splenda on top makes for an amazing pie. You can't even taste that it is slightly healthy! Granny smith apples even help to control blood sugar!  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-20-2009 02:08 PM                        We used to have a bakery here in town, the Sunrise Bakery. I used to go there after school and buy raised donuts -- glazed and sugared, cooked in lard, for 6 cents each. The bakery eventually closed when the owner retired. The only better donuts I ever tasted were my grandma's cake donuts, and my Aunt Gardie's spud nuts. Krispy Kremes? They're just pretenders. Our local grocery store makes awesome cupcakes with about a two-inch pyramid of light frosting on top; you can gulp a mouthful of the frosting and still have plenty left on top of the cupcake.  |  IP: Logged Pravin Ratnam Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 844 From: Atlanta, GA,USA Registered: Sep 2002 posted 08-20-2009 02:54 PM                     CAKE over pies. I like Chocolate mousse pies , but then I like Choc Mousse cakes too. Apple Pies , if made fresh. Pumpkin Pies, I love. OTher than that, it's cakes all the way for me.  |  IP: Logged Luke Anderson Film Handler Posts: 25 From: Spokane, Wa Unites States Registered: Jun 2009 posted 08-21-2009 12:45 AM                    I love food, but my issue really is food all together. With the Chrones I have to stay away from fresh fruit and vegitables, all dairy, high fiber, nuts and seeds and anything very spicy. As well as coffee. For the type 2 Diabetis it needs to be diet controled because the available meds are hard on the gut and other parts of the digestive system but I already have enough problems with that due to the Chrones. So I also avoid sweets and starches / carbs. I'm pretty hard to cook for and when I visited a diatition her eyes got really big when she saw my issues and restrictions and asked me to give her a few weeks, which made me laugh. I have recently quit drinking soda havn't had popcorn in years, so that makes break time at the theatre alot of fun. But in the words of Tony Montana "everyday above ground is a good day" So I guess I will have to go hang out with Booger and have the Hair Pie as well. -Luke  |  IP: Logged
