It's Not About Cakes

About a year ago, the word "Caker" entered my vocabulary. From that day on, my life has never been the same.

I remember visiting the Caker Cooking blog for the first time. I fell in love. I saw rainbows. Karen Carpenter began to sing in my head. We've only just begun...

It would become my dream that one day, Caker Cooking and The Retro WW Experiment would be sharing horizons that are new to us. You know. Watching the signs along the way. Talking it over just the two of us. Anyway. You get the point. I really dig this blog, and I couldn't wait to team up.

So I recently stumbled upon a very "Cakerish" Retro WW recipe circa early 1980's, sent it along to my friend Brian at Caker Cooking, and dared him to give it a whirl.

Well guess what?


That's right. The Caker Cooking and Retro Weight Watchers worlds have collided in a scary union of Peanut Butter and Rice Krispy debauchery. So get over to the Caker Cooking blog right now and check out the renegade "Peanut Butter Cup Pie" Retro WW Recipe that is so "illegal", it was too scandalous to be published here.

Why? Because we don't use Peanut Butter on the 1972 Weight Watchers program, dear. I do believe you will get your ass thoroughly kicked by Jean Nidetch for that, my friend. 

On that note--I'll see you right back here later this week for a healthy dose of 1972 Retro WW gelatin, apple, pickle and chicken goodness. Totally legal.

Oh and  -Thanks Brian. You had me at Tomato Soup Cake.
