In the words of the sadly departed Bernhard Manning:

"Cake is a metabolically bisterbile drug. One little kiddie threw up her pelvis, it's a disgrace".

"One young kiddie on Cake cried all the water out of his body. Just imagine how his mother felt. It's a disgrace. "

Apparently, according to Rolf Harris, the man in question had taken so much cake, that he choked to death after succumbing to 'Czech Neck'.

Re: Man dies of cake overdose...

Noel Edmonds: What is Cake? Well, it has an active ingredient which is a dangerous psychoactive compound known as dimesmeric andersonphosphate. It stimulates the part of the brain called Shatner's Bassoon. And that's the bit of the brain that deals with time perception. So, a second feels like a month. Well, it almost sounds like fun...unless you're the Prague schoolboy who walked out into the street straight in front of a tram. He thought he'd got a month to cross the street.

Re: Man dies of cake overdose...

One thing that puzzles me about Switzerland. Why don't they name their cakes correctly. I purchased a very nice SWISS roll this morning from coop but they insist it is a roulade. Very confusing but very tasty.

Agreed Zug, they need more inventive names like 'RustleDust' or 'Ponce on the Heath'.

Re: Man dies of cake overdose...

this is a clear health risk, I think we should have a poll on banning cake eating from restaurants.
