I do have trouble dealing with frozen spinach, the texture and wetness of which I don't like; but leaf and/or baby spinach I find quite nice, treating it like kale or lettuce, including it in salads without a gripe.2 -

Agreed! I like spinach IN things though... cooked spinach dip, etc.1 -

Haha, sounds like you like cake. "Cakey" things, as you describe them, are a different thing altogether.
To be fair, I rarely eat cake...but when it's my birthday, there better not be some stupid pie!1 -

Yes. Brownies should be heavier than you expect when you pick them up. Dense. They should be a little sticky in your mouth, like you have to take a drink to talk. That's why I don't like brownies with icing - icing is redundant on a good brownie, it's only needed on a brownie that isn't fudgey enough.
Yes, I've thought about this a lot.7 -

Yes. I use a recipe from the New York Times...Katherine Hepburn's Brownies. They are super dense and fudgy, not cake-like at all.3 -
Cookies shouldn't be cakey either...they should be either soft and chewy, or crisp and crunchy. But, in either case, they should be thin, not thick and cakey like those Lofthouse cookies or something.
In fact....thinking about this odd topic...the only non-cake cakey thing I like is cake doughnuts. Much better than the airy ones.5 -

As a point of information, there exist forms of cheesecake with a more cake-like crumb texture, but richer by far than regular cake. (A variant along the lines of the lighter-textured French/German types is my favorite kind of cheesecake. There's also a Japanese type, maybe others.) They're very different from the heavier, less tall, densely creamy-textured cheesecakes like New York or classic cheesecake (which are also good, just not my favorite).0 -

My wife makes a carrot cake with pineapple, coconut and a ridiculous amount of cream cheese frosting and it's the bomb.
Best icing if you've ever had it -- Royal Frosting. Totally different than Buttercream Frosting. So, so good.
Edit, scratch that (got my frostings confused). It's actually called Marshmallow Frosting.

I really don't like cake except a super dense chocolate pound cake maybe. But- I like
..ok love.. cake BATTER! 😂0 -

Weighing in on the cake thing because....cake! I'm a simple, old fashioned girl who is actually happy with a white or golden cake and either chocolate or a light spread of buttercream frosting (it's so sweet!). When I need to go crazy and up my calories, I like to get this slice of tres leches cake from Vons/Pavilions/Safeway with a whipped cream frosting. It usually runs around 1000 calories a slice.
I don't like carrot cake but loooooooooooooooove cream cheese frosting.
That marshmallow frosting sounds good tho.

ok...cake...
I could totally pass on a 'fluffy' chiffon cake (don't like Angel Food at all) I do quite like a dense/white/vanilla or yellow cake with a great buttercream...yum!
I stay clear of the typical of the 'Safeway' types of cakes. That icing is just the most inedible thing out there! and the cake is about the same imo
I think my favorite is carrot cake w/ cream cheese icing of course.2
