Please, tell me what else I'm not supposed to want. I always pick up a lollipop on my way out of the barbershop. Is that okay? How about some cotton candy at the ballpark, can I have that? Am I allowed to eat a chicken nugget every now and then? What about an ice cream cone, can I have that? Okay if I grab a licorice stick here and there? Please, share this list of things I'm allowed to have so I don't embarrass myself anymore.


What, are you 5 or something? Have some control over your poor eating habits!

I’m 5 at heart. Live a little. Don’t any of you ever go to a county fair or a ballpark?


No, they all exist on salads and the latest fad diet.

Because Little Billy wants a full piece of chocolate AND a full piece of vanilla and his parent is super-indulgent and gives him both kinds, without asking the host. Then Little Sally sees Billy's two pieces and pipes up. Then Clueless Dads start taking pieces before all the kids are even served.

I would rather eat the quarter. Cake pops are basically a wad of nasty fondant with a teaspoon of undercooked sludge cake inside. Eww.


For real. Cake pops are nasty. Look up how they are made. It is pretty much under cooked cake with some additives mixed in, then ground all up in a food processor and mushed up in someone’s hands into a ball. Gag.



Um, the cake is fully cooked, the “additives” is just frosting, so you can make it from whatever you want - cream cheese, butter, dairy, nondairy, sugar, sugar free, whatever - and we crumble ours in a mixer with a dough hook and form the balls with gloves hands. Then dip in melted chocolate and add some sprinkles or decorative sugar. And adults love them. So there.

I’ve eaten them several times, from different sources, and one bite is more than enough. I have a serious sweet tooth, and still find cake pops too sweet.


Are you suggesting the adults share a limited number amongst themselves, then?
