Usually they were pretty innocuous. Smooth or crunchy peanut butter, is a hot dog a sandwich, is cheesecake a pie, Marvel or DC, Star Wars or Star Trek, The Stones or The Beatles, etc.

Who says cheesecake isn't a pie? It sure as hell isn't cake.

Yeah, cheesecake is cake in exactly the same way that ice cream cake is cake, in that it isn’t at all even slightly close to being cake.

Real ice cream cake actually has at least one layer of cake in it. Not the stupid ice cream cakes that's just ice cream shaped like a cake. That's just an imposter.

The only ice cream cake I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot, my in-laws love the stuff) has a layer of cookie crumbles inside. I’ve never seen a single one that has any sort of cake in it whatsoever. I also did a google before posting my comment and not a single recipe I found had cake in it either. So I’m very sorry, but no, ice cream cake does not (typically) have cake in it.

They’re a thing, people generally just don’t make them anymore because it’s super fussy.

[–] Alexstarfire 2 points 10 hours ago

It is atypical at this point. But that doesn't make it any less real, or what I believe an ice cream cake should be.

I dunno I think I’ve had cheesecake in a crust only once before but I’ve seen it in cakes a lot. Saying it’s a pie sounds outlandish to me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

The only way to solve this is to eat the cheesecake.

It's not, but if I've got to pick one...

Which I now realize I didn't have to.

I voted pie too. It’s basically custard in a pie tin or crust. The other side was either hung up on the name, or determined eggs were the defining ingredient rather than flour.

At this point smooth or crunchy peanut butter is so much of a cliché it actively bores me.
