The easiest way to parse the meaning is to reverse the statement order, i.e. "Can't eat your cake and have it too." If you ate it, you wouldn't have it. If you have it, you haven't eaten it. The two states are mutually exclusive.
Okay, that makes sense, just weird choice of words.
Totally agree. I've never been a fan of the saying and it only clicked properly for me when I heard it explained with the statement reversal.
