Yeah, that's blood. It'll get better before the show.
Yeah, on a purely reactionary level it's digusting, but using mayo when you're baking a cake is a legit technique.

Cake is at least a certain density where the oil is harder to detect. Cookies and brownies from anywhere trying to get maximum baked goods out for a pittance, it can get to the point it tastes like you could wring them out and collect the oil.

My point is that you can put oil in a cake as the fat instead of butter and not have it be disgusting, depending on the type of cake.

It definitely is. There's a certain type of cake you only really get in America, made with incredibly light sponge that is basically cooked air, covered in an ungodly amount of "cream", which is a strange white substance consisting, again, mostly of air. Maybe it's not an official protected designation, but it's a very distinct confection that you don't get in quite the same form in other countries.

Other parts of the world refer to American cake as "gypsum", "kalk", or "chalk".

That's...that's just called a sponge cake with whipped cream frosting. It's not unique to America at all.

Taco Defender
Either that or they're assuming our cheap-rear end grocery store cakes(which is the closest thing I can think of to their weird description, and I know non-Americans are sometimes shocked by the amount of frosting on them) are the main thing we think of as cake, like how eurogoons seem to think Hershey's is the only American chocolate.

Yeah, from that description it sounds exactly like the z-grade grocery store cake that you buy for an office birthday out of a sense of obligation.

When someone says "American cake" I think of those premixed boxes of dry ingredients that seem to be in half of your "recipes".

But oil in cake is totally normal what are you talking about? Lots of cakes are better with oil instead of butter - carrot cake, banana cake or chocolate cake for example.

It's really sad that we have so many excellent bakeries and restaurants and a really great recent food movement, and the rest of you view us as a bunch of loving stupid Twinkie shoveling slobs.

Also burgs. I don't like the way cheddar sweats and turns greasy as it melts

edit basically anything where even melting is necessary, like grilled cheese
