Do you people all just have big cakes in your fridge? Then you get up in the night to eat them? Really weird.

[–] diffcalculus@lemmy.world 34 points 1 year ago (3 children)

When you're an adult, they let you do whatever you want

And that's why there's an obesity epidemic

We weren't wondering if you're allowed to do that, just if you did

[–] punkwalrus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Well, not just cakes are stored in these; sometimes rolls, cookies, or rotisserie chickens. Also the joke is that we care it's loud because then we have announced that we are eating late at night. Sometimes this wakes people, and sometimes you just want to snack and not have a conversation, or at the very least be polite to people sleeping. Same with the microwave beeping three times loudly when you heated something up.

Also, "big cakes in the fridge?" implies that cakes are sold and stored by the slice. They are, but they also come in wedged shaped boxes made from this plastic. Also it is usually leftovers, like there was a whole cake, but now it's a third of a cake left on some weird slippery cardboard tray. You had a party, most of the cake was eaten by others, but you didn't want to waste the last bit. It takes up a lot of room, is fragile, and spoils quickly. But your significant other is on the couch sleeping off a hangover, so being quiet is considerate.

It's really weird that you don't. Weirdo. (Also, they put those things on veggie plates too.)

I watched a instagram video recently where the guy was up at 2am and decided it was a good time make brownies. I'm like dude these days at that time it's usually a my first restroom break as I've been asleep since 10pm. It's not time to whip up gramma's brownie recipe from scratch...

Sometimes you just need a midnight cake snack

[–] RQG@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Late night cake huh. That's the sound of guilt right there.

They also can be on veggie trays but... Some people tell on themselves

[–] LemmyInRedditSux@lemmy.today 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah those middle of the night veggie tray cravings hit hard

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's the dip. I will take a good French onion dip and some broccoli over a lot of cakes.

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are middle of the night cake cravings a thing?

[–] open2db8@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago
[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I wouldn't trust anything that came packaged in that kind of thing.

Feels mushy

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Or you have some psycho come into your house to watch TV or a movie without using a bowl or solid container

[–] XTornado@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

People use bowls for chips??? Like I have seen it in movies... but never in real life except when eating on the table.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i thought that was ai generated

[–] LemmyInRedditSux@lemmy.today 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It looks fairly realistic except for the fact he's advertising two very different things at the same time

[–] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

The late night cake shaming.

[–] WashedOver@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

For me the Shame monster has surplanted this. Shammeee, shame, Shammmmmeeeee.

[–] DocMcStuffin@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I haven't tried it myself, but I've been told a butter knife can silence the beast.

[–] open2db8@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I remain convinced this device was originally designed specifically to make as much noise as possible, and was only later used for storing baked goods.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That's why I wait until breakfast.
