you can have the cake or eat the cake, but you cannot have the cake and eat it too

The cake changes when you look at it!

So the cake is in a state of both eatenness and uneatenness simultaneously,
until observed by some poxy third dimensional entity?

No, I think he's trying to convey the "flavor paradox." That is, if you're presented with a fully-icing'ed cake from a baker, there is a 50% chance that it is chocolate underneath the frosting, and a 50% chance that it is yellow. However, you can't know until you cut into the cake. Furthermore, the actual cutting into the cake determines which waveform collapses, and which flavor it actually becomes . . .

Although, unlike the cat in the box, there's a chance that the possibilities will just say "fuck all," collapse, and turn the cake into marble or carrot instead.

If you measure it this way, it's a cake.

But if you measure it this way, it's a PIE!

Eve's Red velvet cupcakes are delicious, and are a viable cure for the emo.

PIE > CAKE

Ah, but you see, due to Planck's equations, at the quantum level, Pie IS Cake.

the ratio of any round cakes circumference to its diameter  is pi
all round cakes are cake until measured causing the waveform to collapse resulting in pi

if one baker started to make a pie at 20 after
and then another baker started to make a cake at 5 minutes before that
who's desert would be done in time for the drought feast
