I thought I saw you posted a lot of gourmet cake photos in here though? But no to COFFEE CAKE?! I loveeeeee coffee cake. (Only ones like this with tons of cinnamon streusel topping.) I agree though about cake. I am also not a fan of cake except carrot or cheesecake. I'd take cookies over cake anyday.

Red meat is great! So many people hate it. Our body’s can tolerate red meat in almost any form including raw. I don’t see anyone doing well off raw chicken 🤷♀️4

Butter on pancakes is disgusting3

Pie is better than cake, but of cake, carrot cake and coffee cake are both among the best.
I'll pass on red velvet, as well as lava, and death by chocolate. Too much chocolate and more chocolate ruins a cake IMO.1 -

I'll reply to your unpopular opinion with an unpopular opinion of my own: it doesn't matter what my body can tolerate, red meat tastes like feet unless processed beyond recognition or the flavor is drowned out by sauces and additives. My body can tolerate many things, but it doesn't mean I'll eat anything.2 -
First I've heard of liking red meat as being an unpopular opinion anyway. I understand there are people who dislike it, but most IME seem to enjoy the taste.
I suppose that in general raw fish is more popular than raw beef, but steak is still more popular than fish, I'd bet (and I love most fish).0 -
Biscuits are disgusting.. I'm talking about American biscuits.. so dry and no taste.2

My fellow dislikers of cake! That's the first thing that came to mind when I saw this thread. I've not met others before who dislike it. Some of it is only meh--rather than disliked--and I do enjoy some (coffee cake is a winner with me), but usually I don't like it. I loathe most frostings, way too sweet.
I also don't like soda and find most mass produced desserts here in the US grossly sweet/tasteless beyond sugar.1 -

Yes, I can't stand supermarket birthday cake and when I bake I often reduce the sugar by 1/3 - 1/2.
My JOC recipe for cream cheese frosting gives a range for the powdered sugar:
"Feel free to vary the amount of confectioner's sugar to taste. We have seen recipes with as little as 1 teaspoon and as much as 1/2 C sugar per ounce of cream cheese."
The recipe calls for 8 oz cream cheese, an optional 6 T butter, and 3 C sugar - I use 2 C sugar. My Mom uses honey and much less, which is why I am making the cake for my brother's birthday

I love biscuits. I'd rather have a biscuit with honey butter than cake for my bday. I should bake a giant biscuit with a honey butter filling and serve that for my bday.2 -

Ugh, supermarket bday cake.
Sorry, this might be obvious, but what's a "JOC" recipe?

Bad cake is bad, and I'm a most cake is meh person, but good cake is good, and IMO good cake does not have super sweet icing. There are a variety of icing options out there.
Every once in a while some poster appears who seems to think the average person eats tons of cake, and my reaction is always "where would we be getting all this cake." Basically, if it's not homemade by someone skilled or from a good bakery, it's not something I'd bother with. I don't think it's ever crossed my mind to buy cake from the grocery store bakery section. I'm too picky about cake (and certain other desserts too) for that.2
