It makes perfect since. You can either have your cake or you can eat it.
Once you have eaten your cake, you don't have it anymore.......
'If you fall down and breat your legs, don't come running to me'. Erm, OK Mum, I'll bear that in mind.......... |

But you can't eat it if you don't have any. Is it just a catch 22? |

WHen I was a child my mom used to send me to the shop and say run both ways and walk back, I used to think I'd be back at the shop, it actually ment hurry up but made no sense to me,
ALso if she wanted me to buy some potatoes she'd say get me 5lb of spuds but don't get any big ones they way too much? |

The potatoes one sort of makes sense - you don't want a giant 5lb spud if you are trying to do lots of jacket potatoes or need to make the potato ration last longer than a day.
She sounds great - I am sure there are more hiding in the recesses of your brain. Mine only said, I'll give you something to cry about. |

It's about choices... 
If you don't have 'cake'.. You chose something else..
If you've got 'cake' its upto you what you do with it....
Now about cake , I could munch happily on some chocolate fudge cake with lashings of double cream.... I promise I've been a good boy and deserve a treat.

I have heard that one before - and the voice it's usually said in. No one messes with that sort of threat. |

If i was pulling faces my mum used to say if the wind changes you will stop like that. If you asked my grandma the time she always said a freckle past a hair. If you asked how old she was she would say as old as my tongue and bit older than my teeth |

Apparently as a rule of thumb….!.
A stale cake goes hard whereas a stale biscuit goes soft…….!.
So in answer to your question,,,,,
I don’t know the answer, as both never get a chance to go stale in my house….  |

It's in the biscuit aisle so I treat it as a biscuit - which means I can have more than one.
