Good Eats

Alton: I like cake! Mmm. Cake is my favorite dessert. Cake is, in fact, one of my favorite foods, period. Devil's food, butter, pound, genoise. If it's cake, it's welcome at my table. Unless, of course, it's red velvet cake, which reminds me of those paintings with the kids with the big teary eyes, you know, from the '60s? Creepy. Mmm, mm. Yep, that's good cake. Oh heck, who am I foolin'? Cake's nothing but a delivery system for icing, frosting, you know, the stuff that'll make the big teary eyes of a five-year-old roll back in his head.
