    Wha?!.....What the.....?!! How??!!! How can someone describe a cake in so harsh a manner??!!
    A cake is a soft springy delight, can be flavoured with the most tantalizing flavours in the world, and can be topped off with all that is good and tasty, from choclate bits and vanilla ice-cream, to apple jam with cherries........and while I'm not christian by religion, I still believe that a christmas cake is one of the best desserts ever concieved by mankind!

    If you are referring to the vile concoction the British call Christmas pudding ... I am not going to say it. *calming down*

    I do not know what the British concocted, the cake I talk of is choclate, crisp, moistened only slightly on the inside with syrup, flavoured with a touch of cinnamon, filled with nuts, raisins and plums...........ahh......

    That would be something like a pudding I believe......

    Nah, cheesecake is pie. It has a crust.

    And no matter how wonderful or delectable any country's cakes may be... to me, it's all just cake. Just big slabs of sweet bread and whipped sugar.

    So vulgar... so uncivilized.

    Edit: India, stop describing that cake... you're gonna make me puke.

    Gots to be Gah! since there's no both option.

    Mmmm, homemade strawberry shortcake, raspberry cheesecake, black forest cake, devil's food cake, strawberry rhubarb pie, Mom's pumpkin pie, hot apple pie a la mode, shepherd's pie.

    Too many good things, no one should have to pick and choose.

    Okay, perhaps I was a bit too judgemental; I really don't lie most cakes because they are too rich. But I do like pound cakes and short cakes because they are much more simplistic: just sweet, buttery bread.

    But still none of them can approach the diversity, refinement and beauty of pie.

    Well that's more or less why the "Gah!" option is there. Although in hindsight, I probably should've included a "both" option anyway, and left "Gah!" for cupcakes like Kekvit Irae.
